Published

​I have been out of school for 3 yrs.. I graduated 2009. I have FAILED 5 times taking NCLEX PN and I don't know if I still have the courage to take it again I felt that I am a big FAILURE that maybe this is not really for me.. I already used all the resources that would help me and I am giving up now... it hurts me so bad that I cannot tell any of my friends cause I know they are just going to ask me why I did not passed why I am not yet an LVN ... I am so ashamed of myself even with my family I was not able to prove that I can Pass the boards... I am so hopeless and helpless

You have plenty of support system here. Do the hurst review for content and kaplan for strategy. The key to passing the nclex is knowing the content then following it up with the strategy.

I agree with the other comments. Strategy is VIP because if you cannot identify the distractors, key words and systematically work your way through each question then you won't be successful. It isn't all about knowing content! Maybe having someone work with you one-on-one would help.

HUGS! Go through the the explanations and find out what you are doing wrong, figure out anyway or strategy that works for you to get the questions right!. Also review and do as many questions as possible, look at the rationales for why you got it wrong and figure out how to get it right :)! Also put up some affirmations on your wall, screen saver of your phone, in your purse, car, and one for work stating that you will pass!
