NCLEX RN GONE BAD

[leo82]

I just took my nclex rn today and I'm 100% positive I failed. I got the max 265 by question 140 i was done.

How long do you have to wait to Retake RN Nclex in Texas??? What should I do different

I feel like I don't know what I'm doing or maybe I shouldn't be doing this. All my other friends got the min 75. I;m so upset with myself.

HELP!!!

Give yourself a week to regroup and get back to it. You can do it, never give up!

So sorry! Don't let this keep you down for long. You will pass the next time!

I failed the first and am about to take it for the second time. I did give myself 60days vs'45. If you need more take it. I did hurst the first time around and didn't study it much. I figured "I watched the videos and did the questions, I should be good". Ah nope. So this time around: NCSBN review, hurst again (read the whole book/notes out loud to my dog), did the kaplan book again, and now I am doing flash cards. I am throwing everything I got at it this time. I retest in 6days. Needless to say I feel more confident but I am still nervous about taking it again. Just study, study, study. You can do it.

Do you think I should do the Kaplan review course? I hear they are the best one.

Leo,

What a bummer! But...again, whether you pass on the first try or the second, is not a reflection of what kind of nurse you are. The best nurse I know passed it on her third time...I know a nurse that passed at 75 questions and I wouldn't let her take care of my pet rock.

Hang in there...you'll make it!

i just saw my name at CA BON its official i am an RN PVT works...

@rnlovesherpharmd did you have to retake it?

no, i passed with 75 questions. it did not let me repay for the test. i did many, many, many ati questions and my school made our entire class take the hurst review a month before graduation. i would say trying both of those things could help you pass the second time around. my entire graduating class passed, and only one got ore than 75 questions (110).

good luck!

Hi alneil77,

I just want to ask if excell review really a worth of money coz I'm planning to attend their review class this coming June. And how many days or weeks after you attend their review you schedule your NCLEX exam.

Thanks and Congrats on passing nclex...
