congrats :balloons:

thank you so much for your words of encouragement, i will soon be testing for my second time, the first time i got 265 questions and felted like you did like i passed and now i am scared to face that test again, i've been doing kaplan qbank questions and question trainer. How are the questions from pearson vue? are they like kaplan? any advice for a second time taker?

As a person who joined this site in hopes to find someone out there that felt the same way I did after taking NCLEX....I wanted to write something that would hopefully help someone else feel better about them selfs after taking the NCLEX. Well I graduated school in May of this year and sat for my boards in July. I took the HURST review and loved it! I studied my butt off, sure I was going to pass the thing. Well to my horror I took the whole test 265 questions which took me all of 5 hours. I felt good coming out and was sure that I passed. Well I didn't!!! I failed! I was crushed! So I revised my study plan and decided that I would take the 45 days in between test to study like crazy. Well I went to the book store bought the book NCLEX exam success that is written by Pearson Vue. I did that CD questions till I scored a 90% on them. I also made charts of things in the book that I had never seen before. Well I took my test again this past wednesday I went in hoping for around 100 questions and the damn thing shut off at 75!! I was so disappointed I was sure I failed! I was sick for the past two days thinking about how I had failed it again. But just a few hours ago I got my results and I passed!!!! Those of you out there that are waiting on results or have to take this thing again just keep your head up you can do it!!!! Think positive!!

For those of you that are wondering the second time my test was completely different than the first. The second time I had alot of meds, teaching, priority questions. also alot of select all that apply. The first time was mostly med surg and priority.

The best of luck to all!!!:balloons:

congratulations!!! I also got my results today and I passed. The first time I got 142 questions and the second was 215 questions. I got so scared thinking, was i getting worse? But i made it...I am so happy. This site helped me so much.

Hi congratulations!!RN:balloons:

congratulations! I will be going for round 3 hopefully by the end of this year claiming my license!

Melainept: My advice is to get the Pearson Education book. It is written by Pearson Education the same people that write and give the NCLEX. The questions on the CD are set up just like the real NCLEX and also they are the closest questions I could find that are like the NCLEX. I have about a dozen NCLEX books including Kaplan. I even took the HURST before my first and second test! But this time all I studied was the Pearson book and did the CD over and over again till I felt good about answering the questions. It helped me alot when it came to the actual test! I am sure you will do great on your next test!!! Just keep telling yourself you can do it and I promise you will pass! Good luck to you! And just remember that everyone usually walks out feeling like they failed! Ths worse you feel usually the better you did! Good luck to you! Keep us posted on how it goes! Good luck!

Congrats RN and thanks for giving us the encouragement that taking it again is ok. I will taking Nclex for a third time.

what is this pearson education book??? where do we get it. i trie dto search it from barnes online, but it doesnt show up. Please advice. thanks.

The Pearson Education book is called NCLEX it is a blue and yellow book, I got it at Barnes and Nobels. It says right on the spine Pearson Education. But it is called NCLEX excellence prep. It has a CD that comes with it that has CAT test and 2000 question word bank. Look at Barnes and Nobels! Sorry thats all I can tell you! Wish I could be more helpful! The book is well worth getting it is why I passed my test! Hope you can find it! Let me know if ? I can be anymore of a help!
