I understand how you guys feel. I failed more times than you and I will not give up. We all have our story to tell and no one will understand your situation but you. One thing I know is that: THE RACE IS NOT TO THE SWIFT NOR THE BATTLE TO THE STRONG BUT TO THOSE WHO ENDURES TO THE END. ENDURE! ENDURE! ENDURE!

I failed the first time and just took my 2nd exam on Sept 16 and got the good pop up apparently but I'm waiting for my official results. I want you guys to never give up. Take a step back, breathe, and figure out what you can change when you go into your next test. Pray really hard! I prayed so hard and I cried praying. I didn't do this alone. I know God pulled me through the test if I happened to pass. I know how much it hurts not to pass. I cried so much when I got home and the next morning accepting my defeat. I'm just waiting for my results now. Do both content and questions, schedule accordingly, and just keep going.

Hi, this coming Wednesday I am taking my NCLEX # 3. Currently working now as ER Technician. Job and recent events makes studying a little extra hard. When I failed last year (All above passing except 1 near passing) with 265 questions and 5 hours, it really was hard for me to accept the defeat.

I thought I was prepared enough but I was not. When my wife gave birth shortly after the test, my perspective change to becoming more optimistic. I accepted the fact that the last time was, I was not prepared enough. I admitted that to myself. And then, everyday at work I would open my Kindle App reading Saunders Q&A. Every days off, I would listen to the audio review my wife gave me from a review center in Manila. I did that for 6 months. I got to finish La charity. When July came, I started doing Kaplan. Slowly but surely. Now I feel I am on the right track. I trust Kaplan and with all the questions I have answered, I feel that I have improved so much as compared to how I answered in my last NCLEX.

How I read the questions, eliminate obvious answers, doing recalls - it is way better. I hope you find your motivation again. Mine was really a long process. But then again, it is really up to you. As the cliche goes, it doesn't matter how many times you fall, but how many times you pick up yourself and carry on.

Good Luck!

I am planning to take mine for the 2nd time,hope to have the courage and time to study since I am working fulltime. Take it as an advantage, you already know the style and type of questions in nclex, just keep your focus and faith. We will get through it.

Same here. Took my 2nd attempt yesterday and didn't get the good pop up. I'm going to take a week break & get on a study plan so I can take it in November (after my 45 days)

I'm so exhausted of studying
