Failed NCLEX-RN for the 2nd time

[SweetGurl]

I just checked my results and I failed the NCLEX for the 2nd time.:crying2: I'm just speechless, devasted and now depressed. I put my all into this NCLEX prayed, studied, quit my GN job and did my best on this test. However, after getting the results I honestly feel like I'm a failure and don't even know how to tell my family that I failed this test. I was so convinced that I passed at 75 but unfortunately for me I failed at 75. First time was at 85 now it was at 75. I dont even know where to begin studying. I know I have been encouraging people on here to stay focus but now I feel like I dont even believe those words that I actually told folks. I didn't use Suzzane's plan but I surely did use the Saunders book and did questions everyday. The ones I got wrong I would go back re-read the chapter to get a better understanding. Well I will end here since I have a headache from crying my eyes out again for the second time.:cry:

Sorry to hear that you've been down in the dumps over failing it the second time. Just take some time to relax and enjoy your family this holiday season and greet the new year with your new plan for study. Wishing you good luck in the new year.

Yeah, I am trying for the NCLEX-PN after trying Suzanne's plan. This will be my 3rd attempt. I didn't know to try a review course or Suzanne' plan but I don't feel like staying in NYC for a week straight in Jan. 2009.

My problem was that I had a major headache throughout the entire exam.

Relax the next time. I also am learning how to answer the questions with more strategy like eliminating the same answers first. Or looking for certain words like AVOID and NEVER. And reading the question more than once.

Saunders has a strategy book as well.

YOU CAN DO THIS THE NEXT TIME - read all strategies to eliminate those answers is the key and using nursing knowledge!
