Failed nclex twice :(

Where r u located? May be we can study together cause I took my pn yesterday and did the trick and failed. I study saunders and exam cram. What u did? Let's do this together.

California ....u?

just dont give up! ive taken nclex rn twice and failed....just try to practice answering lots and lots of questions and read the rationales....you can do it!!

I passed nclex-pn earlier this year & this is what I did:

1. I did at least 100-120 questions for almost 2 months using the Saunders cd & I read every rationale afterwards whether I got the question right or wrong (by the end, about 3000+ questions were completed before I took my exam).

2. For every question I did miss, I read up on the subject to get a better understanding of why I missed the question.

3. I made flashcards on lab values that I would go over every night.

4. I also made posters of diagnostic testing procedures (such as what to do with the patient before & after the test) & made sure to look at those every night before I went to bed.

5. I looked at & memorized the infection control mnemonics that you can find on right on this very site. https://allnurses.com/nclex-discussion-forum/infection-control-mnemonics-299890.html

6. ….& I also prayed everyday while studying & right before my test (in front of the computer) that I would pass.

This is how I studied. Basically, people pass & study with what works best for them. Keep studying hard, don’t ever give up, pray, & you’ll both pass soon!

good luck!
