How can i prepare to take the NCLEX RN a 3rd time?

Published

Well i failed my NCLEX the second time...had all 265 questions. I am confused as to how to study to pass this test the 3rd time. I got my evaluation back from the BON and it said i was "Near the passing standard" on all categories! Why can't it be more specific. How am i supposed to study when all categories were near the passing standard...does that mean i was on the line the whole time and just didnt go above the line? I am confused right now and getting frustrated with trying to study for a 3rd time. I feel like a loser and failure for having to take it a 3rd time when all my friends passed on the first try. Plus my school has a good passing rate and is a great nursing school...i feel like i have let everyone down. Any advice? I want to try suzannes plan but i have to go buy a new book...i only have saunders 3rd edition. :(Stressed!!!

Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks for all the support! I really love this site!

I have been reading so many suggestions. It seems like a lot of people recommend "Saunder's". Could anyone tell me the full title of this book so I can order it? Thank you.
