Discouraged, need a study partner

[blynn9173]

I am so discouraged with myself right now. I have failed the NCLEX several times and I just can't seem to get back into studying. I took my last test back in June. I graduated in May 2010. I just want to pass this test so bad. I live alone and barely making it on nursing assistant wages. You name a nursing review I guarantee I have tried it lol. I have tried Hurst, Kaplan, and Mark Klimek. I have tons of NCLEX review books. I have Saunders, Lacharity, Exam Cram, NCLEX Davis Review. I have been at the library for a few hours now and I have all this stuff in front of me and I have no idea on where to start. I just get discouraged when I look at all this material. I feel like I have forgot alot of stuff. I so need to get back to studying. I would love to have a study partner to help me through this. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated! Congratulations to all the people that have passed NCLEX so far! I hope one day I will be able to post RN after my name on this site!

The NClex is full of many repetitive questions and concepts. The main part has to do with prioritizing. I used saunders big book of questions so my advice is to truly do tons of those questions and then go over the rationales. As you read the rationales whip out ur textbook for a full review. Once you start scoring near 75% then reschedule ur test.,, There was no, and is no point of rescheduling a test when you haven't made any improvement in the practice sections.

Concentrate on Saunders Comprehensive Review and the Linda LaCharity book on prioritization this time. Don't let your collection overwhelm you and don't give up.
