I took my NCLEX yesterday and I failed it!!! Any suggestion on study help would be greatly appreciated. My classmates that took the Hurst review said that it did not help them at all...so therefore I did not take it. I will take any suggestions that I can get. I am feeling really down and stupid right now!!!

Sorry about ur test! I used Saunders Q&A and 4000 and ncsbn review. All 3 of these were great but since taking nclex-rn and passing - I would use ncsbn. I took a 3 wk 24 online access for $49. They also offer 5 and 8 wks. I feel it was also most like boards. I dont know if u are retaking pn or rn but ncsbn offers both reviews. Good luck and best wishes!

I mostly focused on the Saunders Comprehensive review book. I also got the Kaplan NCLEX-RN strategies book. I did the NCSBN too but didn't find it helpful at all...I thought it was way too easy. Good luck!

I am sorry to hear that you failed.. It's a hard test. I failed this test too. Do not feel stupid... read around a lot of people do not pass. It's just a hard test. It's a BIG Deal. I know it's easier said then done but...Good Luck!

Take Hurst for content review. IT IS an EXCELLENT review of content. No... Hurst did not help me much with the actual questions. I took Kaplan to help me figure out how to crack the questions. Take BOTH of these if you can. I took both and PASSED FIRST TIME. Good luck!
