PASSED NCLEX AFTER 3 TIMES

Specializes in Peds/Adults Ambulatory Clinics.

I graduated in May 2022. Paid to take NCLEX and kept failing even after multiple review courses. I got 126 the first time , 145 the second and 78 the third time. I used UWorld the first time , Hurst and archer the second and third as well as YouTube. The last time my classmate and studied how we studied during nursing school and both passed with 145 questions. I am on a travel assignment as an LPN and had plenty free time to study. We used UWorld this time and simple nursing study guides. We studied almost every night and I studied while at work just doing questions. She taught me how to break down the questions and see what they want us to see when answering. You don't have to know everything. I took my exam in another state and 4 hours from where my assignment was on March 29. I wanted to hurry and take it before the Next Gen NCLEX rolled around. I had some next gen questions on UWorld and honestly did better on those. I feel like if we had continued studying like we did in school and made the time , we would have passed sooner. Just wanted to post since I read alot of these when I was struggling to feel like something was wrong me and maybe I couldn't become and RN, but here I am

Congrats to you!

Which of the review courses do you think was the most helpful, if any?

Thank you !!

I feel like once we just started focusing on questions UWorld did the trick

UWorld is awesome (in depth with their explanations too).
