Need help passing nclex failed x 3

Published

:cry: I do not understand why i can not pass this test. my scores were 140,265, 75. The content that the results say i need help in are changed for all 3 test. For example test 1 and 2 i was above passing in basic care but in test three i was below another one was management of care i was near passing in test 1 and 2 but test 3 i was below. I have taken a reveiw course, purchased saunders, kaplan, exam cram, i have done well with the questions but still can't pass the test. I do not feel nervous or scared when i am taking this test, i know that i am frustrated because i maintain good grades in nursing school and i was the one helping a few of my classmates and i know for a fact that they barely graduated from nursing school and they passed the nclex the 1st time go figure? So looking at the content area for me is not telling me anything because i can not see the questions that i did not answer correctly. I took the 3rd test last week .:crying2: Please i am open to any suggestions thanks

I have a question....did anyone pass the NCLEX with 75 questions and the last question was more information-based?

I mostly used the Kaplan site and book. I would study about 8 hours a day (sometimes more/sometimes I took a day to myself). I would set up snacks and drinks and just sit at the computer studying. When I reviewed the Kaplan questions, I would think why did I miss this question. If I did not know the information, I put it on my study guide. Although I did not always use the Kaplan decision tree, I think it helped narrow down what the question was asking and posible correct answers.

I passed the NCLEX with 75 questions. I felt that the beginning of the test gave me "difficult" questions and the end of the test gave me "easier/information style" questions.
