Cant pass NCLEX PN and need advice........

U.S.A. New York

Published

hello everyone! so i already took the nclex twice and haven't passed it. i was an average student and graduated in summer 2008. i'm really embarrassed about failing twice because most people who graduated with me passed the first time and i don't want to sign up to take it again because i'm beyond scared to fail again, i'm really really down on myself! if anyone has any helpful hints on how to get prepared again let me know... i've been studying exam cram and saunders a lot.

my 2nd problem is that with the economy being the way it is i am still in retail and broke! i know i can't work as a graduated nurse since i already failed, but i can work as a cna since i graduated school right? i'm not sure but i thought that was the case. and if that's true does anyone know how i would go about getting a certificate for being a cna?

are there any other positions in the medical field that i could apply for since i have garduated with my lpn that i do not know about?

any answers would be fantastic! =)

thanks for your time!

Check out the NCLEX forum under the student tab above. Not sure if you can look for positions as most may require a license.

Without possessing an actual license as an LPN for your state, there is nothing that you can do that will require a license. You will need to check with the state for the specific requirements for working there as a CNA, each state can set their own requirements.

Best of luck to you.
