Confused, NCLEX for the 2nd time

[porkey2]

Hi beautifuls, I have a question; all of a sudden Im so confused on how to study for nclex, this will be my second time taking it and I sure would like to pass this time. When I received my letter, it stated that I was near passing on all subjects; I haven't scheduled my test yet because of money but should I be doing more content, or just continue with questions and rationales. Sometimes I feel so motivated, other times I feel a little down. What would you guys do?

My studying tools are: saunders, nclex 3500, kaplan and PDA

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I value this site so much, thanks.

I understand how you feel because I too had to take NCLEX twice. I studied content and did questions. In the morning I would study content using Hurst and the evenings I would study test strategies and answer questions using Kaplan. Fortunately I had done Hurst review before I failed and was put on their 45 day remediation plan for free and I was able to have access to Kaplan for free because a friend had passed NCLEX and let me use hers because it didn't expire until Sept

I took it yesterday. I would say do questions and content, I think it was equally important.
