I failed..........

Published

:scrying: :scrying: Hey everyone, I failed the NCLEX. My heart is hurt but I know I couldv'e studied harder for that test. So now, I start back at square 1 turning in my paperwork and sending the fees off again. I have one question: do I have to wait 45 days after I took the NCLEX or 45 days after I got my results to take my test over? good Luck to all other waiters out there!!! :( :sniff: I'm going to have a drink. LOL:biere: :bluecry1: :banghead:

Keep your head up. Someone once told me "there is no failure in trying". I believe this whole-heartedly. I haven't taken my boards yet b/c I am waiting for my ATT still. But I am still nervous about it. If you survived the trials and tribulations of just getting through the program, then you can survive anything. I make the mistake of reading to much into the questions sometimes myself, as I am sure we all have, can't say how many times, I changed right answers to the wrong ones. So buckle down, look around for some good practice NCLEX websites and books. Good luck to you, and don't beat yourself up over it.

Hey i know exactly how you feel. I found out yesterday that I failed my NCLEX also. Easter Sunday! It really sucked. I was really in shock. I know I worked so hard throughout nursing school and I had the job that I really wanted lined up for me to start next week. But today I got myself together and sent my application out again so I can retake this thing in 45 days. I also found out that the hospital will hold my position until then. So I was very excited. So, just keep your head up...and things will fall into place. My problem was that I made myself so nervous over this thing and looked way too much into the questions. I am going to try the Kaplan course and try and stay calm and focused! Anyway, good luck!
