Hi all,
Feeling very, very discouraged here. Waiting on an ATT and reading past treads for tips and strategies but very, very rarely here good news on first time passers. Why is that? Are there any first time passers out there?? ( I am sure there are.) I am just not seeing it very often. I have almost told myself, "well, nobody passes on the first try." I do not want to go in to the exam with this attitude. I want to pass the first time. One reason is the expense. After all of the money we have all spent getting to this point $200 a pop is rough!! School has nickel and dimed me to death!!!! Any tips from anyone to help boost my confidence level for a first time pass? Would like some feedback.
Thanks,
Alisha B
I spent two hours and had bt 180-185 questions, the pc cut off before I looked up again lol, and I passed. I wasn't really fond of saunders but Kaplan was the best decision I ever made and the book NCLEX Made Insanely Easy was actually alot of fun and easy to pick up and use with questions on the left/answers on the right and a lil lady in the middle of the page every 50 questions or so cheering you on
