Failed NCLEX-RN for the 2nd time...

Published

Hello all,

I am really down after not getting the "good pop-up" after my exam this past weekend. This is my 2nd attempt at the NCLEX and both times I sat for all 265 questions. I thought I really worked this time around. It is very frustrating and demoralizing to come home and not get the pop-up. My heart just sunk. Any encouragement, study tactics, different resources etc. would be greatly appreciated. I am able to test again in mid-January and plan on doing so as soon as my 45 days is up. I took Kaplan the first time around and this time I used Lippincott's book and did roughly 2000 questions. I am really down and out. Thanks for listening.

The information is really quite overwhelming but the key is that you're not giving up. I'm sure that you have learned so much throughout this and each time you learn something new. Third time's a charm! Keep you head up and persevere :)

I know how you are feeling as i also failed after 265 questions. Its good that you remain positive and are planning to re-sit. Do you have any idea how long a new ATT takes to arrive? I booked a new test on 11/27/12 but have heard nothing!

If I'm not mistaken you should be receiving it soon. Mine only took 1 week. They say max 2 weeks. Good Luck!

Cheers and good luck to you ncfalcon!
