NCLEX help

[stressedperson]

Hi, just to introduce myself a little. I graduated nursing program in NY in 2016 January.

I am sure there are people out there who is struggling much more than I do, but I too, am

struggling and very stressed out.

I have taken NCLEX-RN so many times that I almost completely lost faith in myself.

After I graduated nursing program, our school used Kaplan. Although I did all the questions

from the Kaplan, my average stuck b/t 48% - 55%.

I felt like I needed better explanation from remediation, which I thought and still believe

Uworld is more helpful, and very descriptive.

I have done ALL the questions from the Uworld and made myself notes from every single

questions and remediated carefully as much as I can.

I am thankful that I have done all the questions, and understand nursing materials so

much better than before. But I cannot stop doubting myself passing my next nclex-rn

exam because of my previous awful experience I went through.

Maybe it's because the way I study is wrong, but definitely something is not right.

For those of you who used Uworld to study NCLEX, was it helpful to you that Uworld

is helpful?

Now that I am done with all the questions and notes, what I am doing right now is

to study my notes (system by system), and then re-do the questions from Uworld.

For example, first, I would study Adult Health: Endocrine, and then once I finish studying

my notes on endocrine, I would go back to Uworld and re-do adult: endocrine questions

again. But honestly, I feel like there are so much material that my brain is limited to know

all those information and able to move on.

I want to hear some of your experiences, and how you were able to move on with your life.

I am honestly too stressed and depressed, and am starting to think I can never pass NCLEX which is embarrassing.

It hurts me to go through this as I am losing my friends around me who graduated

nursing program with me, and how much I am disappointing my family and myself.

If any of you can help, please share your wonderful experiences..

From what it sounds like, this isn't an issue of a lack of understanding, but moreso you are psyching yourself out. It doesn't matter how much you study. If you go into the exam thinking you will fail; you will. Maybe try to talk to someone? Consider therapy? Find a way to manage your anxiety.
