Published

This web site helped me pass the nclex PN exam, but I have failed the Nclex RN 3 time now and I don't know what to do. I need a private tutor but I don't even have the money to pay for a private tutor.

Please help me know how to answer these questions :( I really don't know what I need to do the fourth time am taking this exam

I have used Sanders and Kaplan all the three times and I know the answers to the questions that I don't think I can use them any more.

I have got 265 questions for the three times and the results all say am close to passing which does not even help me. I really don't know what am doing wrong.

Please help me tell me what helped you pass the 2nd, 3rd, 4th 5th etc times

Dont give up! i failed 3 times too and the 4th time I passed!!! just found 1 week ago! Used Kaplan and ATI but didnt work for me. Some of my classmates recommended NCSBN and that totally helped me. First i read the Saunders 5th ED. book twice from front to back, then reviewed notes from random people ( ill forward it to you give me your email), then I took the NCSBN 3 wk review course, I also practised La Charity Prioritization book. You can do it!!! I did it! you can too!!! good luck!!!

Hi, I would continue studying Kaplan if you can. It's really amazing. Plus buy the PDA by lacharity. I think these two combined are very powerful to pass NCLEX..

I'm sure its nerve-wracking to take the test 3 times. I can't imagine being in your shoes. I used Kaplan and Saunders, but you said you have already used both and know all the questions.

I also used the NCLEX and HESI study guides that I founf on this website. It went over basics labs and main points for certain disorders. I recommend double checking all values with your books because some of them were wrong.

Do as many questions as you possibly can; I did about 3500 Qs before my NCLEX.

Try going back to the basics, use the decision tree from Kaplan, and try not to over think what the questions is asking. Dont think "what if this" or "what if that". Whatever info they give you, is what is needed to answer the question.

For priority questions, think, "If there is only ONE thing I can do for this patient to save his/her life or to make the best possible outcome, what would it be?"

Also think what would be the outcome for the answer that you have selected.

The problem that I had when I began studying was that I would read too fast through the questions. I practiced WRITING the main point of the question, and what the outcome would be for each answer.

In the NCLEX, even if you dont answer all 265 by the time the 6 hr mark hits, they only count the last 60 questions, so take your time; breathe through each question, take your breaks, and if you feel overwhelmed, take a small break, or just close your eyes for a minute and refocus.

These are some of the things that I did to overcome the monster named "NCLEX RN"

Good luck! and I hope you can find a study partner and pass the next time you take the test!

This is my second time failing nclex. Firsrt time I had a lot going on in my life at the time that makes me stressed me out. The second, I studied Saunder CD and NCSBN. On top of this, I work four nights per week and I barely sleep during the day; 3-4 hours the most sometimes none. I have a two years old and is married. My mom tried to help me the best way she can to babysit. Am very devasting and depress right now. All my classmates took theirs and pass. I reach to the point where I want to quit my job or cut down my hours to two nights. I really need some advice on how to tackle this test the third time around. Anything that can help please share.. Thank you

My advice is to take multiple practice tests and when you are consistently passing those...then re-schedule..your wasting your money and time if you don't...its all about how you answer the questions..most have multiple right answers, but which one is the most correct..go with your gut..usually its right. I passed both NCLEX (LPN & RN) the first time with the minimum amount of questions because my school drilled in to us how to answer these types of questions..my class had a 100% pass rate the first time...
