I failed

Published

I took the NCLEX RN today. It cut me off at question 76. I thought I did good. But I tried the PVT....no pop up. It lets me register for the new test. Meaning I failed. Im so.....

Thank you guys! I am looking in to Hurst review and thinking about buying them to get myself on tract. But the $350 is the problem. Im on budget now.

I have no idea how I failed. I did all the Qbank, trainers, and addition about 1000 questions in the review book that I have my hand on. And I got a ok score. The questions in NCLEX exam seems easy enough at the same time maybe they are not the passing questions.

The Hurst Review is worth every penny. I absolutely loved it, it's very content based and I think it helped a lot. I listened to it in the car whenever I drove. I also did every question that I could get my hands on for practice. We had access to ATI, but I didn't read the books, only did the questions. There's a pretty cheap ATI app for the smart phone that I used to practice at odd moments. Good luck!

What were your current study habits? Try learning the core content first before doing questions.

OP....:hug: I am sooo sorry. It is so disappointing. Allow yourself one whole weekend to wallow in self pity and be depressed and indulge in adult beverages. Then you kick yourself in your butt and start preparing for the next test.

Good Luck!!!

Relax and breath. Then get back to studying. My nursing school is requiring that we buy the ATI books and take 2 ati tests each semester. I feel like that has helped me a lot. You passed nursing school, so you can pass the NCLEX. Good luck.

Thanks guys, here is what i did this time.

I took diagnostic test with kaplan and found my weakness. Then, I watched the videos about my area of weakness. I read the kaplan book and did the qbank.

I guess that was not enough.

I just took my NCLEX RN today again for the fourth time and no pop up. I got hit with all 265 questions and it took me 5 hours. I am really at a loss for what to do next. This time was the only time I ever exceeded 75 questions, so I had to have done something right. I'm very discouraged, and graduated a year ago and have nothing to show for it. Bottom line, I know how you feel and its crappy :cry:
