hello, I need help. I graduated school this May and have yet to pass NCLEX. I took it 3 times. I have taken Kaplan and obviously it hasn't worked. I'm so depressed because all my friends have passed and I feel I have worked as hard and even harder than some to pass the test. I thought for sure the third time would be a charm but instead it was a thorn!!!! What to do now I want to be an RN ..... I want to pass the fourth time but I'm not sure how I can ..

Welcome
I would consider Suzanne's plan and everything can be fund in the stickies on the main NCLEX forum
With determination you can pass and her plan has a very good success rate
what is suzanne's plan? and how do i get it?

Please go to the top of the NCLEX Forum, you will see several stickies written my me. One is called the First Tip, please follow the instructions that are given there.
There is also an additional sticky that answers most questions that students seem to have.
One of my requirements is that you have at least one week from the time that you get your results before you begin to prepare again.
Other item that you need to be aware of is that you are not going to be ready to test in 45 days. If that is your goal, then my program will not work for you.
Also, not sure which state that you are in. But some have specific requirements before they will permit you to test again, it is going to be up to the state that you are in. And you did not mention it.

You say you graduated in May and have tested 3 times in a little over 5 months. Maybe you are in too much of a hurry to test. Try taking a little more time for your study and review. You need time to make certain this info sinks in. Good luck on your next test.

Consider doing Suzanne's Plan. Good luck.{{{ HUGS }}} Hang in there, you can do this.:heartbeat
i'm still confused as to how to contact suzanne for the plan. I'm not really sure about the 15 posts? I have the Saunder's NCLEX book, but again I'm not sure how to use it in relation to the plan. can anyone help me?

Silas I just took my NCLEX for the third time as well last friday. As of now I haven't seen my name on the CA. BON. Most people try to reassure me but I'm pretty sure I will be taking it a fourth time. Do not despair for you are not alone. I also took Kaplan twice already and it did not work for me whatsoever. What I will be doing to pass this fourth time is prepare with the Saunders reviews book. I wish I had gone this route from the beginning and never spent so much money on Kaplan.
What I try to remind myself is we made it this far and this is the last hurdle. Tons of people are on a waiting list just to start the nursing program whereas we are both completely done with nursing school. That in itself is something to be very very very proud of. Some people don't even make it out of nursing school. Be strong, think positive, and we all now you can do it. :nuke:
Thanks, I'm trying to stay positive but its hard when all my friends have passsed and are leaving me in the dust with my books. How did you get Suzanne's plan? I have heard so much about it, and everyone praises the method, and I want to too. I too took Kaplan and I wish I could get my money back... but that's water under the bridge, but how is the plan working out for you and when do you plan to re-test?
