Hi all I am in great need of help for passing the NCLEX. I have taken it 7x and have yet to pass. I am frustrated and upset and am trying to decide which program to use next. I will not be able to retake the test again until late April. I did the Kaplan and the NCSBN program but neither of these worked for me. I wrote to Suzanne on 2 separate occasions but she said she was not able to help me at this time. Is there anything out there anyone can suggest i do? I worked hard to get through nursing school and am ready to give up. My family does not want me to give up but it seems like there are always doors slammed in my face. SOMEONE HELP PLEASE

Sincerely

Hi

Welcome!!!

I am a little surprised to hear Suzanne .said she wouldnt be able to help you at this time...honestly...though I have as yet not taken the exam ..since you have taken it so many times i think you owe it to yourself to take it...till you succeed what kind of help are you looking for..My take on it is ..content is the key to this test.. if you know content .. then you should be able to critically think .. and analyse... you must solve questions for that part..to get the strategies..... will pray for you!!

you know you're ready to take the nclex when....

you've found at least 3 contradictory answers in your study material

you don't have anyone left to yell at

the dog is gaining weight

you answer to everything is, "I don't want to talk about it till after the test."

anyone else?

Please do not try to blame me when you did not contact me with the required information in the first place. And I do the same thing with others, if you do not meet the requirements, then I am unable to help you or the other person. You need to meet the requirements that are posted under the First tip at the top of this page, and if they are not met, then I am unable to help you.

As I told you before, the information that you provided for me did not meet my requirements. You need to meet mine, not the other way around. Go back and reread the pms that I sent to you telling you what you would need to do.

You need to give yourself more time to prepare properly in the first place.

Well, in the mornig i do my test 100 items and then in the afternoon until 6p i would do the reading. but just this week i decided to do Q&A only and stop reading since i already read the whole saunders.haha:nuke:

am I doing the right thing?:uhoh21: i mean i just dont want to put too much pressure on myself 'cause it might not do good on me.

good luck to us all:up:
