failed boards twice

hi,

i am sorry for you:flowersfo . i took boards way too long ago to have any advice (some of the great people we have here can help you), i just wanted to respond to you.

don't give up...all of that hard work wasn't for nothing. some just have a harder time with the test. you are not crazy or whining...it is a terrible disappointment and you have the right to be upset and sad.

my prayers are with you for the next time you take them and hugs to you now:icon_hug: .

hi angel1979 ,

i just want to say don't give up you did not go to school for nothing you are a nurse, i was in your situation i had to take my test twice and on the second time i passed with love and faith from jesus christ and from the tips of suzannes study plan, i advise you to take a look at suzanne sticky it will definitely help you pass the board trust in her study plan, pm her for her study program tell what you used to study and what study method or course you took and she will help you with the rest. remember you are a nurse don't let anyone tell you otherwise. believe in yourself and seek the lord he will answer and give you what you ask for.

Hi, Angel1979!

Keep at it! You now know the areas you are weak in, so review them over and over. Also, review the test-taking strategies and do questions on your computer, at least 100/day as recommended by Suzanne, concentrating on the areas you need to.

Study and review!! and keep us posted!!

Good evening angel1979,

Don't get to down on yourself....Stay positive and focused....Relax take a couple days off and reassess your situation...You can do it; through prayer and God...He never fails...I know it's hard right now but you can do it!!

You graduated from nursing school and you can pass the exam. Have faith and keep studying until you drop...ha...ha....

Have a blessed and prayerful weekend...

peace,

nursingone

thanks everyone for the advice and support. i really appreciate it. continue to pray for me. i will definately check into suzannes tips. thanks

hi angel.

don't give up you have worked very hard. as hard as this sounds, things happen for a reason.

i also did not pass the first time.

i am currently following suzannes program.

i am going to just stick with this.

good luck and don't give up

pm me if you want to talk

i know how you feel

thanks everyone for the advice and support. i really appreciate it. continue to pray for me. i will definately check into suzannes tips. thanks

Thankyuo i will definately talk with you again. when are you taking yours again. I am gonna try and take it the end of april for the 3rd time. This site is really helping me.

Good Morning,

Keep your head up.I to am on my third time to test.i sit at home answering questions and wonder why I am not passing.Because I know the stuff I get nervous knowing im taking this test and that theres a lot riding on it,I get worried wondering what everyone else is doing not focusing on myself.Im eligable to retest march 27 which I think im going to wait till the second week of april.Best of luck to you stay positive youll make it.

My cousin took the NCLEX three times before she finally passed. Before she took it the last time, she asked all the family members to pray. We prayed for a weekend for her and she finally passed. She also knew the areas of weaknesses and focused on them. You will pass, just keep God first and everything else will fall in place. Good luck and may God bless you.

I am hoping to be ready by May to retake it.

I am following Suzannes plan and I wan to make sure I do everything the way she recommends.

I am trying to go through the Sauders book (her first tip) but I have to do this first in order to get to the CD and when I do I need to do it for 6 weeks.

How are you planning to study this time.

I am studying with totally different material since i worked with Kaplan the first time.

Thankyuo i will definately talk with you again. when are you taking yours again. I am gonna try and take it the end of april for the 3rd time. This site is really helping me.

Please do not give up !!! You will pass it is just a matter of when...Heck, I think I passed because I was able to make educated guesses about the NCLEX....I know it is easy to give this advice when you are the one who did not make it but believe me it is more common than you know. In my graduating class that started with 30 students, 9 survived the program, several have not passed the NCLEX. Pride is a big thing alot of people will never admit if they also took the NCLEX more than once. What you need to do is figure out where you are lacking in skills, perhaps you need to learn test taking strategies to better help you when you do not know the content. Please do not compare yourself the the others it does no good. I graduated with a 2.5 GPA not good and passed. Our Cum Laude student took the NCLEX twice! Please don't despair.

Hey,

I took the NCLEX-RN twice and failed. I only did 75 questions. I felt it depressing but it was okay. I wasted some money taking useless online courses but now met an outstanding tutor. :balloons: That was the key!
