Failed at 265.....Passed at 76

Published

The first time that I took NCLEX was in July. I had all 265 Q's. After failing, I began an ATI study plan. I retook NCLEX on Thursday Sept. 27, I had 76 Q's and I PASSED! I was really worried about it cutting off so soon but it can be done no matter how many questions you have, just hang in there. My advice is know infection control and lab values. Question 73 was easy math Q 74 and 75 " Who do you assess first" Q 76 " What prescription would you give first". I done this to show you that it doesn't matter how easy the questions seem at the end you can still pass.

Congratulations on passing and good luck!

I'm taking my boards in a few weeks and I'm very nervous but I'm going to keep a positive attitude and make sure I study so I can walk in with a bit of confidence.

I took my first test in on August 1st....failed at 265. It was horrible. I am taking my second one on Oct. 17th. I am more nervous now than before. The first time I was so ready, felt that I studied enough, but still didn't make it. This time concentrating is hard because I have it in back of my head.....the "what if" question...what if i choke again in the middle of the test? I need advice on how to relax. Thanks
