I was in the same place… as time went on and I didn’t take my boards (life, new career as flight attendant) and in no time 6 years went by and I thought it would be impossible to pass.I had a break from flying and decided to study… I did UWorld and just doing all those questions helped to A. understand NCLEX style questions, what to look for and how to answer and B. Gave me the general nursing content I had forgotten. I tried to do Kaplan but just ended up using it as a resource…I felt it was sooo in depth it was taking me forever to get through it and overwhelming. So after 5 months of UWorld and reviewing areas I felt really weak, I took it and passed. It was terrifying and no joke… definitely thought I failed… but I passed : )Now I kick myself, because I spent more time avoiding it with the weight of taking it one day… than it actually took me to study and pass it! Hope this helps and wishing you the best of luck!
