Hello, I finished my LVN program in September 2015 and took the nclex the first time May 2016. It took a while to receive my ATT. I used my Saunders book, nclex question bank on evolve, nclex mastery app. I found myself just trying to get through questions instead of actually trying to understand why it was correct or incorrect. The Saunders book wasn't much help. During exam day, I answered around 130 questions. I had a gut feeling that I had failed. 2nd time around I purchased the remar quick facts review book and uworld subscription for a month. I read through the book thoroughly and helped a lot and the uworld rationales were awesome. In hindsight, I know that I should purchase a longer subscription and really read l the rationales even if I got the answer correct. I took the nclex on Jan 9th and wrote down all my labs I remembered on the eraseable note board they give you. I felt more prepared the second time around , but still came up short and did not pass. I answered 113 questions this time around. I plan on using uworld again. My first try not passing I was bummed and depressed, hence the long gap between re-examinations. After my second try, I was a bit sad but more determined to conquer this test my 3rd time! Anyone please provide suggestions, notes/study guides etc. I really would appreciate it as a retester...we all know how expensive taking the nclex can be. Thank you
