I am so desperate for someone to lead me in the right direction PLEASE! I graduated Nursing School a few years ago. I didn't make the highest grades, but I always stayed about my 80% that I had to. I made the mistake of working with my temp license for a year before I took my NCLEX--and I cram studied the night before and that was ALL... Needless to say, I failed. I got the max amount of questions...and I knew before I was even done with the test that I failed. I took a job in management at the facility I was working at on my temp license. Every single day, I wanted to be on the floor with the nurses and residents!! So... 2nd try at NCLEX-- I was foolish, yet again and waited OVER a year to test again. You guessed it, Max questions again and FAILED. (My own fault, again- I did study more than the first time, but I rushed it again- didn't do any questions and only studied content off and on for a couple weeks). So fast forward to 3 years later- I took it again in 2020- This time I listened to all of Mark
K's audios and took notes on all. I created flash cards for myself. I knew I didn't feel prepared to take it but I listened to others that kept saying I was ready and I took the test again--and 3rd time, Max questions again failed. So here I am...determined MORE than before to pass this darn thing! I have again done Mark K audios, I have been watching all Remar videos I can find on You Tube and taking notes on every video. I also downloaded the study guide from this website and took notes on it. I just signed up for Archer today... This is truthfully allllll I think about. The minute I wake up, it's on my mind! I have now been studying for about 4 weeks and I have NOT told any friends or coworkers because I want to test on my time. Each time I took this test, I seriously felt like my heart was going to come out of my chest! I can't remember a single thing on my exams!! I had to reread every question multiple times because of my nerves. I am not an anxious person at all, but when I sit down for that test, I instantly feel overly anxious. (I am not saying that's why I failed-I failed because I was foolish and didn't study like I should) Can anyone please help me figure out how to properly study? I want this so bad!!
