Feeling like failure. Not happy in my life.

Specializes in HIV,Infectious Disease, LTC.

I am very depressed and I went online seeking free help because I am so unhappy and life is not getting any better for me. I took the PN exam today for the second time. I got 205 questions this time just like the first time. I felt ok with the first 50 to 60 questions, but things started making me nervous when i went past 85. I should have rescheduled my exam because other things in my life are not working out. Past 6 weeks i studied my a^^ off and I can't seem to get ahead. I made A's and B's in school. What has happened to me? I don't see the point in taking it a 3rd time. I can't afford it. I borrowed for the 2nd test and now I just say screw it. I should have not taken it today. I am kicking myself.

Life has a way of kicking us in the rear. Dont give up. If nursing is your passion then keep on going. Take a deep and relax until you find out for sure. Many have passed with that number. You may have surprised yourself!!

I don't know what to tell you... There are people who have taken the exam more than three times and have succeeded. You don't know yet whether you passed or not, so try not to be too depressed until you find out how you did.

Best of luck to you! :icon_hug:

Maybe you did better than you think you did? I don't know what to say. I wish I some words of comfort, but just try to get through thee time until you know for sure. I will keep my fingers crossed for you and I truly hope it all works out.

I am sorry to hear that. I am sure after what have been through and what you are going through is normal. Keep your head up and I am sure things will go your way. You've come this far, don't give up now.

See how it goes, just because you received another 205 doesn't mean you have failed again. Hang in there and don't give up

Good luck

Hi , i feel your pain for I have the same situation I took NCLEX-PN 3x, first 2 test I end up with 205q my 3rd time was 97q and just got the result last sept. 26 and it's not succesful, I know how painful it is especially with financial, but I have to let you know that don't give until you succed this pain is temporarily only that's what I told myself, there are some who took the test for 8x and passed they never give up. You should do the same thing to. You need to refocuse yourself and start studying again I suggest to do Suzanne's plan, you can find it on the sticky note. We can study thru here PM me all the time, if you need to, thanks! I pray for both of us to pass next time..:)
