I'm a soon to be graduate from Indiana... I'm done with my nursing courses... however, one of the requirements to get "cleared" from the school to take the NCLEX is to pass their practice NCLEX test..
And I'm having trouble with the OB part... I took the test before... last fall and I passed it. But I had to take it again (as part of the requirement)... and it's been the 5th try and I still have not passed it... And it such a pain because I can't take the real NCLEX until I pass this thing... And so I really need help with the questions.. I wrote down some of the questions that I had trouble with and I extremely need help with those...
So if there's any OB nurses or anyone that's good in OB that's willing to help me... it will be much appreciated!
Please send me a pm if you are interested (and titled it OB NCLEX)
Thank you so much!
God bless!

Please don't misunderstand my reply. I am not trying to be catty. But I am truly curious as to how you think total strangers on a message board could help you pass a pre-NCLEX test.
Please go to your academic advisor, or the head of the nursing department and request tutoring and assistance with test preparation, especially in OB. This institution happily took your tuition money for 2-4 years, awarded you passing grades in both theory and clinical. If you are struggling with content, they need to help you. They have your class grades and clinical reviews to know what your strengths and weaknesses are.
Best of luck!

I do agree with Jolie but any extra help that fellow nurses can provide may prove to be invaluable. The administrators/instructors at your school should provide you with some type of extra instruction; however, there may be something that someone in this forum may offer that causes your "light bulb to turn on" where OB is concerned. I am a pediatric nurse, but excelled in both peds & ob in school. Would be glad to offer any help that I can. Just need examples of areas you find the most challenging. Hope to help in any way possible!
God Bless!!

I took the liberty of moving this thread to the NCLEX Forum where you will be able to get more help.
As another poster has asked, can you be specific as to what you are having issues with and then perhaps someone can offer assistance. It may just be with the way that you are preparing for the exam to begin with.
