I just failed at my first attempt at the NCLEX-RN

I have the same problem. I dunno what to do differently I'm trying to answer questions rather than reviewing contents now but I dunno if it's gonna work. I hope so. Hey can I get your email by the way? Just in case my net connection blows up. Hehe., Thanks in advance:)

First of all, don't be discouraged..I failed my first try at 265 and passed second try at 265. In my opinion, the cocktail you need to be successful on the NCLEX is Kaplan Strategies 2012-13, PDA by Lacharity, Saunders review book, and that 35 page study guide floating around on here-that is not endorsed by all nurses in any way shape or form

What is the PDA la charity?

I'm curious to hear how your scores on the Kaplan q trainers and q bank were...

What is the PDA la charity?

Sorry..it is a book called Prioritization, Delegation and Assignment and the author is Linda Lacharity. It has nothing but those type of questions with a few case study's in the back. Also, the chapters are system bases so like chapter 1 for example would be like med surge, chapter 2 endocrine, chapter 3 maternity..and so on. It really helped me pass second go around so I swear by it. I ordered mine from Walmart.com but you can get it from any online site or bookstore I'm sure.

Thank you copelald, i am going to take the Nclex RN for the second time, I need to pass this test so I did ordered that book the PDA la charity, the Kaplan strategies too, and the saunder comprehensive book also. I hope I can pass this time. Working full time plus studying its so difficult but I have to do this!! Thank you for the clarification :) And congratulations on passing the second time!!!

I highly recommend NCLEX High Risk by Marian Condon. It is written specifically for people who have not passed NCLEX before. I used it, even though I had never taken the NCLEX and thought it was a very good review source.

Hardly studied at all...but I did Hurst review live twice and that's it. I consider myself an average student at least compared to my classmates in nursing school. It's how you answer the questions and Hurst helped by giving out some pointers! The questions (on NCLEX) I thought were very similar on ATI exams our school utilized. You can look them up on the internet. Good luck!!!
