Check with your board of nursing, many states require that you attend and submit proof of completing a nursing review course after the third fail and before you may be issued another ATT to sit for the NCLEX again

I TOTALLY KNOW WHAT YOUR GOING THRU!!! I have taken the NCLEX PN 2 times now. In the state of OR. after the 3 time taking it if you do not pass you have to take the whole pn program over again! Also OR is the hardest state to pass the nclex! With the need of medical personal/nurse's I don't understand why this exam has to be so hard! I have used Kaplin, Cengage Brain, Sylvesteries(different additions) I am stuck on what to do next. Kaplin has an online course for NCLEX-PN & RN I think what this program does is teach you how to take the nclex, and it provides review questions as well. But the Cengage Brain is the closest study tool out there from what I've been told.

The class that I was in, out of both am & pm classes, there where more that failed the nclex than what had passed.

So ADMINISTRATOR if you could please tell me what I can do to pass this nclex or tell me should I call PearsonVue(they are the ones that make up this exam, or should I call the OSBN? I have no idea what to do, I can't afford to fail! PLEASE HELP :bluecry1:

First NCLEX is a national exam it is no more difficult in Oregon than in New York or overseas....it determines whether a candidate meets the minimum standards of an entry level nurse in the United States. Calling Pearson Vue will do no good as they only administer the exam only for NCSBN, NCSBN coordinates the writing of the exams and determines the national passing standard.

Your state board of nursing determines the requirements of who can become a licensed nurse in your state..such as requiring one to complete a refresher program or repeat a nursing program if one fails three times.

In Maryland you don't need refresher course thanks God, I will just study more and more and try it again in 45 days I don't want to wait to long
