NClex X 2

Published

Specializes in Psych.

Took nclex x2. First on 2/23 and again 3/12. Did the PVT with CC page. The first time I had 75 q's the second time I ran out of time at 258 Q's, guess they were giving me all 265 Q's. When It said your time is over, I knew it wasn't a gud sign. I heard some stories abt ppl running out of time and failling so I knew I had failed. I trust the PVT cause I did it for three of my classmates that didn't have the nerves to do it and they all had the gud pop up when I did it for them. They all passed after doing the quick results. My PVT led me to the CC page both times. I just went to PV and it says your results are now ready to be viewed. I really dont want to view them cause I know I failed again when the PVT took me to the CC page. while wanting for the 45 days to get the ATT, I did 200 Q's everyday from saunders CD, 4500 nclex q's CD, and the 3wks ncbon q's for 70 bucks. I read every rationale to every question I did. I was more convident the 2nd time than the first. I felt like I really did my home work. I am getting really frustrated and asking myself why? All my classmates have passed except for 2 who have to retake as well. What else can I do. I am an LPN who works in a psyc hospital. I know my basic nursing. I can't figure out why this is happening to me. Worst of all, ppl asking me at work when I will be taking the boards just adds more stress to this situation. I have been offered several positions already. I keep lying that I haven't taken the boards. The quilt is killing me as well. I want to set myself free. I need HELP real bad. I got to pass NClex no matter what.

I'm sorry to hear that you failed the exam. When you took the NCLEX both times do you think that it maybe a content/knowledge problem? Did you find that you didn't know/know enough about the topics from a lot of the questions? If so, then you probably need to review nursing content. I took the test two days ago. And I found (especially with SATAs) that the answer choices are usually about either knowing each one of them or not. Otherwise, it's easy to miss the question by picking or not picking an answer choice.

I have failed it 3x. So I am now taking the KAPLAN course. You sound like you have the same problem I do... you know nursing content but you dont know how to take the NCLEX. This is why i finally bit the bullett and paid the $500 for the kaplan course.... loving it so far and I am finding the questions so much easier! Re-taking it in April and I already feel much more confident!

GOOD LUCK and dont give up!

Hang in there, don't give up. Stay focused on you and passing. Put up some affirmations and study your weak areas, get rid of text anxiety. BIG HUGS!

Sorry to hear that you have to go through this but do not give up. I am agree with the one who are taking KAPLAN. I did take the KAPLAN for NCLEX-RN and passed at the first try. I knew that it was quite expensive but it worth.Try KAPLAN and I believe you will not be disappointed. Good luck for the next test.
