Hello i am new to all nurses.com. I am currently having tremendous trouble trying pass the NCLEX exam. I graduated in December 06 and have taken the test 4 times already!! I am SO frustrated and depressed about continous failure. I dont know what else to do to prepare. I took the test last on December 26th and had 75 questions, my previous test i had 91, 113,151 questions. I really felt confident this time but no i failed. I took a Kaplan review, did many review books...i just feel so lost...can anyone help or give any suggestions please :cry:

SugarPlum2003,
I would suggest Suzanne's Plan to you. It is the best thing out there. Like everyone stated earlier, you can find it as a stickie on the top of the page once you enter the "NCLEX DISCUSSION BOARD".
Just remember, NEVER GIVE UP...

I agree with everyone else.
take a step back. Look at what way you have been studying and do a change for good.
it is possible to pass that test. You passed nursing school, so you are capable of passing.
I never used saunders to study suzzanne's plan, but since you mentioned that you used everything else, perhaps you should go out and buy a saunders book, read every page in it, do every question in it, then apply to take the test.
work very hard.
hard work pays off, believe me, I "gave up" time with my baby so I could study, I "gave up" alone time with my husband, I "gave up' going to movie and dinner. I spent at least 8 hours at the kaplan center that people eating in the computer room started to really annoy me that I would tell on them.
and I made it first time with 75Q, I was not confident at all, but I ended up passing.
If I can do it, anyone else can, it just takes really hard hard hard work.
