Hey everyone! I just want to let you all know I passed the NCLEX! I'm officially a RN. Thanks to everyone that encouraged me during the time I failed. To anyone out there that has failed, keep on pushing for that light at the end of the tunnel. I failed the exam twice and with both times I was devastated but I didn't let that stop me. If this is your dream then never give up.

Nick2you, congrats on passing your boards!! What did you use to prepare for the nclex?
The first time I used Virtual ATI and I did not like it at all. The second time I used Kaplan and I also did not care for it. The third time lol I used NCSBN learning extension and I found that to be more helpful for me. The questions are good on there and they challange your thinking. I also liked the review of the topics on there. The only thing I did not like was that the rationales were not provided for the other options to a question if you got it right. I paid for the 5 week plan which was $70. I know a lot of people on here suggest doing so many questions a day, but I did what was comfortable to me (sometimes 40 or 50).
