Hey everyone I just created this account after finding out 5 minutes ago I failed my NCLEX RN for the fifth time now.
I graduated nursing school in May of 2013. I have a 15 month old daughter and for the past two years I've been trying to study and pass this test. This most recent exam I went all the way to 265 questions.
I'm looking for advice on creating a realistic study plan. What are my best options? I've used Kaplan review. Since being out of school for 2 years I fear I don't know how to properly study. I'm also very ready to give up completely.
Thanks for all the feedback. I would love if someone could help lift me up, make me not feel like a complete failure.
Some states mandate a remedial class after 3 failures. In my opinion, ALL states should have that mandate. You are obviously somehow unprepared. All of these nurses have given you excellent advise....but at the end of the day you NEED to return to school and get some help with whatever it is you aren't getting. Stop trying to do this on your own and get the help you need to succeed.
