LowkeyJ, don't give up. Brush up on your content with Saunders, I believe the yellow book is the most updated. Borrow NCLEX books from your local library. Also, caringyou.net have some free resources. In addition to that NCSBN (makers of the NCLEX) have a program ranges from 3, 5 weeks and more. You can choose how many weeks for a reasonable price. Take care and if you believe in the power of prayer. Pray. We are here for you. NCLEX Friend. You can and will do this. Believe in Yourself!
Caring4you.net is the website and other sites on here. Also, study guide I believe two of them floating on this site, they are very through and good. Keep your head up Lowkey.
Sorry for the really really late reply. Thank you so much!

Lowkey, don't give up! The biggest piece of advice I can give is....STAY CONFIDENT I took my NCLEX-PN 2.5 years ago and used some ATI resources but mainly used the yellow Saunders book. The book can be overwhelming at first glance so I recommend that you figure out what your weak areas are and study those like crazy using the Saunders book. The book also comes with a CD that is FULL of questions. I think I was taking about 200 questions a day and focusing on the rationals. GOOD LUCK to you and keep your head held high :)
Thank you! I think I will start using the newest edition on the Saunders for my studies.
