Hey everyone,
I have been working so hard since I graduated to pass my boards and done countless study programs and spent a lot of money. I am now in this state of depression, if I may diagnose myself and I cannot seem to shake it in order to get my confidence back up for this next time coming up on the 25th of this month.
I feel like a failure and nothing I do seems to help. I need my studying to be worthwhile but I just get so down on myself.
Any advice?
Thanks,

My experience:
Attempt #1 Used Kaplan but did not complete the program, was sick on test day, and ran out of time
Attempt #2 Used Kaplan almost completed the program and ran out of time
Attempt #3 Used Hurst but only watched the videos, had really bad back pain on test day, and ran out of time
For my next attempt I will be completing Hurst program, Lacharity, NCLEX Mastery, UWorld and praying everyday!
Yeah skype sessions. For me the most important thing is to discuss content because the best way to learn is to teach. Also having a study partner keeps me accountable and motivated,especially when there are no deadlines like when we were in school. Right now I am working about 30 hours per week plus volunteer work,so that is why I am only studying a few hours per week. Once October comes around I will be putting in more study time. For each attempt, did you take the exam in the same testing center?

Try the Hurst Review course. I took the NCLEX 7 times before passing and Hurst finally did the trick for me. She gives you all the content you need to pass.
