It is so great to see postings like this that will keep our hopes alive. The words of encouragement really made me feel that there is a chance for me and to others whom are stressed-out and feeling overwhelmed with this nclex testing...thing.

I'm in Ohio and just failed Dec. 11th for the 2nd time. I'm going to give Suzanne's plan a try. I would like to be evaluated in some sort of way to know what I'm doing wrong. I feel like I have tried everything, even a review course before my 2nd attempt. I really became confident during my 2nd attempt answering priority questions because of what I learned at review. I used my tips to break down the questions and still failed. The best way to describe my feelings right now is to say my spirit is broken. I'm at a loss as to what I'm doing wrong but still digging my heels in to stay afloat. This site was a wonderful find!

to those that failed, what materials did you guys use?

I also failed twice and right now I am still having blues. I tried almost everything: Kaplan, NCSBN, Saunders, Mosbys and Lippincot. I think all we need is to focus. There is no best materials.. All we need is just put our heart and soul to the exams and believe in ourselves. :up:

I guess so huh! Did you get nclex4000 from lippincott? I think it's pretty good. I thought alot of people say NCSBN is super i guess not!How many questions did you finish those two times? I wonder if we spend a long time on questions and who care about time running out and just focus on getting question right, if that will be safer than trying do more questions>>im going to try to ask around because I keep wondering hopelessly :cry:

So far Saunders is the best reference. Whatever is your materials just stick to it. Dont think that if you have more materials it would make it better but it will just make you more confused on what each book says.

thank you I will look into Saunders maybe that is why Suzzanne's plan only focus on Saunders but it just nclex questions are very tricky and require critical thinking! I meant spending more time during nclex test good be safer way to go??

Hi, I took the test 4 times and failed. I keep wondering when they are going to say I cant take them anymore. I don't get why I cant pass I have tried everything and I know I am far from stupid. I am going with the Saunders right now and then once I finish I will try Suzanne's plan. I hope it works!! Keep your head up and take them again, you will pass.. Good Luck!!:reindeer::snowman::snowflake:
