sorry to hear that you failed. You should get a print out that will give you a rough idea on your shortfalls which will give you an idea on areas to study. Take a deep breath and give yourself some 'me' time before you start studying again. Might be worth considering Suzanne's programme of which you need to follow instructions in the thread on the main NCLEX page

Get yourself the Feuer Nursing Review... the site is F-N-R.net
I used 5 different review books and three different audio CD reviews. Feuer helped me the most. It's reasonably priced and for me was better than a live review because I could listen to it over and over... if you lose focus on a long day in a live review you miss the info... I had this on in my car, while in bed before falling asleep, on my discman at the gym, wherever... In restrospect, I would not have wanted to face the NCLEX without having listened to this CD series several times. There is also a great Pharmacology review.
Good luck. Don't lose your confidence. You wouldn't have made it this far if you weren't able to pass. You'll just have to take it again, that's all. Just prepare a bit more.
