I have heard of people retaking their med-surg course, or retaking the Kaplan course if their nursing school offers it. How have you studied?

I have studied the books, i have taken kaplan, i have failed the test 3 times.

most of my questions were priority. I can't find a book with priority questions. now i'm told by the boards that i need to take a remedial course before re-taking the boards.

Hi Lave,

Don't give up. Give yourself time to regroup, take the remedial course, and go in there like you're taking it for the first time; and don't think about those other times. I'm taking boards in February, and I've been studying Kaplan and Sylvia Rayfield. I'm finding myself getting more and more questions correct. The key is to practice looking at as many questions as you can get your eyes on. GOOD LUCK! I will keep you in my prayers. Remember: if you can get through nursing school, you can get through this test:wink2: .

have you tried Saunders? I heard that book had a lot of great questions.
