i don't have any advise, i just hope you pass it this time around!

maybe you can take more practice tests? do they let you know which parts are you scoring the lowest in?

i wish you well

I took it twice, but I notice whenI just studied, and prayed it worked out fine. I studied the guides they gave me after I failed the first test. the guide will show you your weak points and what to focus on next time. and always pray about it. when you sit down at that table make sure God is sitting right there beisde you. That have always helped me out.

I did fairly well. What really worked for me was doing NCLEX questions. I did alot of them. I went to Borders bookstore and used their NCLEX books. Look at what are your weak points and do all the questions.... Not just 20 or 30. Sit and do a couple hundred a day. When you do them read the rationales even if you get the answer right because usually there is helpful information in there. Sometimes you get them right but your logic is faulty. I saw alot of questions on the hesi that resembled NCLEX questions that I had done. I read through a few sections of the saunders book about delegation, law, and things ot do with post op and ambulation.

Then the day before the test relax. DOn't study. Don't stress. Do something that has absolutely nothing to do with it, that you really enjoy.

On the day of the test get there early. Make sure you eat something because your brain needs energy. Breath deeply. Read all the questions twice. Ask yourself what they are really looking for. With questions think about the ABCs. Airway, bleeding, circulation. Also look at Maslows heiarchy of needs and think about how to relate that to prioritizing the needs of patients.

I hope this helps, and good luck to you.
