hello everyone. the last time i took the nclex-rn is march 2010 but i did not make it, thats my 3rd time. i had been so sad since then and i could not focus. i finally made up myself since i am not working to find a job and it was hard. today i had submitted my application for cna, so that i could work just as part time and not being depressed over taking nclex rn. i always keep my coping, but right now im not so good on coping anymore... i graduated 2006 and had taken the nclex since 2008. i had taken kaplan saunders and all stuff but still i didnt pass. i dont know what to do...? is there something wrong ive done? i sometimes loose faith and believing in myself and god..please help me, im so hopeless...

Im sorry to hear that DreamGoalRn. First thing you do, is to take some time off. Then you received your evaluation, your weakness areas right? Then focus on those parts. Look back, and assess yourself, your weakness. I suggest that , take this test like it is your first time. I heard Saunders is a good resource for the content area. Saunders has diagnostic test in the cd, right? And they have a calendar where they will assess you and give you a detailed schedule. Follow the calendar. Then after the content practice questions.
I do 100 questions a day, I make sure to read all rationales that same day. :) Then I bought the La Charity book, during my spare time, I try to answer La Charity book (Prioritization, Delegation and Assignment) This helped me alot. Then 1 week 2 weeks before my test I answer La Charity again.
And above everything, PRAYERS. Keep praying and Keep believing, don't say "I hope I become an RN" butrather say " I will become an RN" :) Ill keep you in my prayers i hope it will help you. Go back and read old posts here in NCLEX discussion and you will find other posts that will surely help you. :) Godbless!

The NCLEX is an especially difficult test. Do not be so depressed that you don't move forward. It is good that you are looking for a job. Meanwhile, sign up for the NCLEX again and approach it as if you had not tested before. Just keep at it and you will pass. The only way you fail is if you give up.
