failed nclex 3 times

[skwilliams]

Hello everyone,

I am writing this because I am at a complete loss with NCLEX. I have taken NCLEX 3 times, and have been unsuccessful. Throughout nursing school, I consistently studied and alway had good grades. I am confident with my knowledge, but now I am feeling so defeated. The first two times I took NCLEX, I was so close to passing - most of my subjects were above the line & I didn't have any subjects below the line. This 3rd time, I took a study course called excel nursing and I have never felt more prepared for this exam. I can verbally explain all my study material, so confident!! and then I failed at 75 questions which means I failed miserably. I am a smart individual and I just don't think I can keep putting myself through this. I officially am defeated and clueless about how to pass this game. If anyone has been through this before, can you please help me? I just don't know how to get through this.

I have also fail 3 times don't be discouraged you are not alone... It's not how much you know it's your test taking ability I promise you I know so much content but I suck at test taking I would beat myself up over not passing nclex and then I spoke to a nurse who took it multiple times before passing... That motivated me so I hope knowing your not alone motivates you.... Its nothing like nursing school ... I am currently using hurts and Kaplan question bank and I googled do not delegate what you eat and I have the book called delegation priority and supervision something like that and that is all I am going to use this time because I used a whole bunch of books the last three times and got overwhelm and never spent tome to learn the strategies
