I just found out a few minutes ago I did not pass Nclex for the second time.
I had 265 questions both times... so obviously It thought I was somewhat smart. I took the Sylvia Rayfields Nclex review course that has a 98% Pass gurantee, but it actually wasnt that helpful. I sought help from our nursing administrator who is really up on this nclex stuff...but obviously it didnt help. I dont treally have test anxiety, I do fine until I get a bunch I dont know or I look around and Im the last one there.
I'm SOOOO Bummed... I dont wanna put my life on hold any longer :uhoh21:
I used the KAPLAN CD Rom to get ready. I only used the practice tests. I kept redoing them and redoing them until I had them memorized. That was my only studying. When I took my NCLEX, I had what I thought was a rocky start, and then suddenly, the questions were almost the same ones as on the CD ROM. I just started clipping along and after 64 questions, I was done.
You can do it. Get your money back (guaranteed success) and get the KAPLAN. You will do just fine.
Just do it. Don't give up. Keep trying. So what if it takes you 10 tries, you will still be a RN. And maybe better than the Ace who passed it the first time.
looks like you are getting a lot of smart valuable advice here...state of mind is one thing that you can control....look at all the ones who passed and you will see that they are not smarter or better nurses than you....take it again and when you look back in about 5years you will see it for just a bump on the road...GOOD LUCK..
