Flunked 5 times...

Just took exam today...did Pearsonvue trick, once again, failed.

Am I ever going to pass? I've already spent $1000+ retaking this exam, I just can't memorize everything!

There were craploads of precaution questions, crapload of med questions, crapload of calculation questions, and crapload of everything else.

I feel like a failure.

I don't even have a job; I've been trying to pass this exam for the past year and a half, hoping each time that it'd be the last and I'll FINALLY be able to get a job. But now it's like an empty dream.

Maybe nursing's not for me.

    Memorising isn't the key but understanding what the question is asking. Not sure how you studied previously but give yourself a short break before starting again and start as if you haven't tested before. I would suggest you do not rush to resit but give yourself a bit of time. Do questions and read the rationale even if you got it right. Only look at an area if you are not doing well answering the questions, i.e doing bad answering paed questions so have a study read on paeds.

    Do not give up

    iam actually kind of in the same boat... Well I do have a job to get by... And ive been trying to pass this stupid test for the longest trust me i'm just to embarrassed to say how many times i have taken it... But i look at it as okay i spent alot on for schooling and i know i don't want to let it get to waste... so my words advice is don't give up or everything you been through will all been in vain and if you need a study buddy reach out to old classmates and what not... >.
