New here! Failed nclex first time..need advice!

Published

Hey everyone! I'm Emily from NC and I'm new here. I just found out yesterday that I failed my boards..:o..I had ALL 265 questions! My question to you all is how do I go about re-registering to take the nclex again? and Do I have to do the finger prints and all that other stuff all over again? I sure hope not..that was a pain in the butt!

Also..and studying tips? I used the Kaplan book..but I dont really feel like I studied like I should have..I basicly did practice questions because thats what everyone had been telling me to do, but I dont feel like it helped me. And some of these online review courses are crazy! I'm not paying $200++ for that!

Thanks in Advance!

welcome to the site

You just follow instructions for re sit with your state BON and pay fees. I don't think you need to do the fingerprints again. Would suggest a good read on here as plenty of study information around and also Suzanne does a good program you just need to follow it. It may be worth just studying before registering again to re sit although you do have a period of time before the BON will allow you to resit

Good luck
