Helping my GF pass the LVN NCLEX after being out of nursing school for 3 years

[ProgressiveThinking, MSN, CRNA]

Hello everyone! Please help!!

My girlfriend is scheduled to take her LVN NCLEX for the 5th time in April. She basically went to a trade school here in southern california and was part of their first graduating class. Out of her graduating class of 11, only 3 passed. I believe the school is now closed. Anyways, she's a smart girl, but chose to attend this school because the owner was a friend of her mother, and at the time it seemed like things were falling into place.

She has never really had much discipline with her study habits until now. After failing the NCLEX 4 times, she decided to go back to a local university, which have helped her study skills improve greatly. I passed the LVN NCLEX with ease (85 Qs in 55 minutes), and she helps me with math, and can mathematically run circles around me (lol). I say this just to prove her intelligence. I believe that she just lacked discipline at the time.

Her parents own few home health businesses. They desperately want her to pass her boards so they can retire. She basically has a comfy six-figure job waiting for her. Everything is paid for..She just needs to pass her NCLEX.

PLEASE...what are some good ideas to help an LVN grad pass the NCLEX after not studying anything nursing-related for about a year. ANY resources, suggestions, ideas, and help are GREATLY appreciated!

THANKS!!

She needs to buckle down and study. As simple as that. The majority of the posts on this forum recommend for her to do as many questions as possible and to study the rationales. That is how most people pass the exam. A good study resource is the Saunders Comprehensive Review.
