You are not alone, I failed my first attempt. At the moment Im studying content and doing at least 100 questions everyday. I have the Saunders for content review which I love. I also have the LaCharity and exam cram for questions and have received great resources from this site. I study 2-3 hours a day, review everything because the test is different everytime, but make sure you know your endocrine system, respiratory, GI and infection control, airborne, droplet, contact etc:. Start out brand new with your studying and you will be a nurse one day,never give up.

Oh and if you are like me I hate reading the rationales for the questions, but Im changing that, I read every rationale and the next time I see a similar question I usually get it right. READ THE RATIONALES.

You are not alone, theres a lot of others in the same situation as you, you will get a lot of support here. Good luck on your stuyding

Just get a calendar and map out a rough plan for three weeks to three months of work. I would not study for more than four hours a day since you have a job, but if you want to work at it six or two hours, up to you. I would dig out the Saunders book and start with chapter one. Just stop stressing over the process. Instead start over and study as if you had never tested before. Good luck.
