I feel like puking. That is the only way to describe what I'm feeling right now. I just took my nclex for the second time today. My computer shut off at 75 questions and I feel so defeated. I failed in June with 75 questions. This time however the tests were totally different. I got 2 dosage calculations,11 sata and I kid you not EVERY question was a teaching question, even the priority,who would you see first, what would you give first, the sata,ALL OF IT was teaching. I want to cry. I'm too scared to do the pvt. I wanted more time to prove myself smh. That test was ALL over the place! All of my questions were on different subjects. Maybe a few were about the same topic. Also my questions were VERY long questions and so were my answers. All I can do is pray now.

Hey there! i haven't been on this site long enough to be able to send private messages.
It's encouraging to know we're not alone, for me at least the first feeling of failure is the worst. That how come everybody can do this and I can't. I took a month off and now i'm trying again, the 4th will be the last!!! I've had everybody tell me about verse so i'm going to look into signing up for that tomorrow. Like you, Kaplan bored me. I've been doing ATI testing which has been very helpful and gives you an online coach. Going to start that from the beginning. I Know we can get this done. I'm tired of people asking me what are you going to different, whens your test, what are you going blah blah like leave me along for god's sake! There is nobody that wants to pass more than me and i'm not happy with my situation so get off my back! Theres my rant as about 15 min I had this argument with my dad. Stay positive! I too was depressed for a couple weeks, took a breather and now I'm ready. Everytime I pass by a hospital I get excited, i've started writing RN throughout the day randomly after my name and i'm going to treat studying like it's a job and really give it everything. Like you said, God's saying not yet for some reason. we wouldn't of gotten through school and put in those countless hours of studying and clinicals and assignments if we didn't take this seriously. There is 1 damn test standing in the way and the more people tell me I can't the more I wanna prove all of them wrong. I just gave in my application to the nursing board this week, so that should take 4-6 weeks. Im hoping to take it by march. This time i'm not going to tell a SOUL when my test is. Not my parents, not my friends, nobody. Then when I see that license online it'll be that much sweeter, as well as less pressure from everyone. We can do this!!!! Take a breather, and regroup. Nobody understands what we're going through and what we've gone through. No more bad relationship, do you!!!! Do this for you and your kids. Don't give up!!!!
