Sorry to hear you failed, very hard for foreign nurses to pass NCLEX. If you apply to another state you have to start all over again and can take several months before you can resit. I would stick with the same BON and just pay the resit fees. Have you pm'd Suzanne for some advice?

Hello Velvet drops;

My advice to u is not to give up....I would definitely send Suzanne a private PM and hear what other suggestions she has to offer and see if she can work with u again...I believe in my heart that is tutoring out of the good of her heart and the fact that she is taking time from her own personal time to help individuals means, she has your interest at heart.

Do take a few days off, then regroup..YOU WILL PASS TOO... Good luck, know you won't be the first and certainly not the last...DON'T LET THIS BEAT YOU.

Dont be discouraged. PM Suzanne and get her advise. Id still stick to Suzannes plan though. The Saunders book is excellent and has ALL the content needed. You may just need to know HOW TO APPLY what you have learned. Dont give up. No matter what!

Hey, sorry about your failure but maybe if you want to try suzanne's plan again then do so. I don't feel that you are blaming suzanne for your failure but if you are open to more options then there are many available.

Feuer @f-n-r.net, NCSBN @ learningext.com, Hurst review, Kaplan, ATI nclex review..there are so many out there so try to exhaust one that works for you!

Good Luck!

I did Suzanne's plan and also Kaplan and I passed. When doing Suzanne's plan she states that it doesn't matter what your score is, just make sure you understand the rational why your answer was right or wrong. I also did the kaplan online test questions, because I wanted to make sure I understood how to answer the questions. I used kaplan as a way to test my understanding, because it should not matter who writes the questions if you understand how to answer them you should be able to get most of them right.

Right now take a few days for you and then regroup.

Since you did not contact me about this, I am going to ask some specific questions here for you:

Did you do 100 questions and only 100 per day? No more and no less?

Did you pay very close attention to the rationales behind each and every answer? That is more important than the actual questions themselves.

Did you use the third edition or an earlier version?

If you wish you can send me a pm, I need to know exactly what you did do and did not do. If there is something that needs to be adjusted with the program, this is the only way that I can find out about it.

I have found that those that did not pass, did not follow it exactly so that is why I am being so picky in asking these questions of you. Especially about the review of the rationales.
