Did any boby fail at 265 NCLEX RN and fail the second attemp

[beckybn2]

Hello,

First of all, thanks to all those who are listening to me. Here's my story. I took the 1st NCLEX RN and failed at 265 question. The result came home and 1 category above passing, the rest near passing standard. How did i study for it? I read the ATI and do Saunder's questions. I feel that I didn't know my material. To prepare for the second exam, I read the whole Saunder's book and of course do all their question. I did about 700 Kaplan's qbank questions some Mosby's. Second test i got around 100-110 questions.

My questions to you is has anybody heard of someone failed on their first attempt at 265 and next fail at 110? I feel really dump. How can I do worst, I suppose to improve.

Also, I took test on the 15th at 8 am, the results should be posted on 17th online right? I feel that after two days, the chance is significantly lower.

Quick response would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

B.

The first time I took it, I failed at 265. 2nd attempt I failed at 84 questions. I just took mine yesterday and it stopped at 75. I hope I didn't do any worse the 3rd time around

Ikwashington, did you notice a difference between the three times you took it, like study efforts, what did you change the third time etc?

Tinkerbell04...I took Kaplan live and online. This really helped a whole lot. I belive in Kaplan. It helped me to look at the questions different.
