Hello everyone. A quick little background. I am from Montreal Quebec. We do not have the NCLEX we have the OIIQ exam to obtain our license. We only have three tries over here as compared to the rest of Canada and the US with the NCLEX which is unlimited times. I failed the OIIQ three times, first time with a 50% ,second time with a 53%, and third time with a 54% (passing mark is a 55%). Of course I was devastated. I thought that my nursing career was over. Until I heard that I can do the NCLEX. I studied, a lot. Bought many of the books that were suggested (Kaplan, Saunders, Lippincott, Remar Review, La Charity) I did pretty well on the majority of the comprehensive exams provided. So i thought i was ready for the NCLEX. I booked it on January 4th, I did 247 questions and I ran out of time. I had about 20 SATA questions, 3 drag and drop, about 12 exhibit questions and MANY MANY priority questions..are those higher level questions by the way?? I received an e-mail the very next day stating that i had failed. Again devastation. I have been getting many failures which really brought down my confidence. I took a little bit more than a week to just relax and hit the books hard this week. Although I feel lost. I don't know how or what to study and I do not want to spend more money on books and programs. Considering i have spent over 3000$ in exams these past two years. (The OIIQ exam costs 610$ and i did it three times) So what I am asking for is some guidance and suggestions on how i should go about it this time around.
