I passed NCLEX the second time. I am a second language and I knew that the first time was lack of strategies. For my second time I did Kaplan questionare and I really learned from their strategies. I also did NCSBN and key with that one is to look at out for the pattern of the rationales they give you for similar situations, specially for delegation. I also were taught that I should be thinking about expected and unexpected when it comes to prioritization question and that the key of the ABCs is to check if your client is getting enough oxygenation to the main organs (got those from the the NCLEX Taylor review). I wish the best on your next try. You can do this.

Thanks Mari, You are a very good friend and I hope we keep on touch. Take care and God bless you!

Yes, you can do it too. I wish the best success when you take your test. We all deserve to be successful.

I think NCSBN can be helpful if you try to analize the reason behind their rationales and the pattern of them. I did Kaplan, NCSBN, and took Mosby CAT twice to give me some encouragement. I noticed for some of the questions for the NCSBN they will tell similar things and I interpret that as that should be the way I should be thinking when that topic or situation has been given to me. I believe it help me to get the key points. On the other hand Kaplan questionare is very good for strategies if that's what you lack. I wish all of you good lack and don't get discourage. Take care, be well, healthy, and happy.

Thank you to all of you guys. You are awesome when it comes to give support to others either to celebrate or give some encouragement. Take care, be well, healthy, and be happy.

I Just took my test on August 1st for second time, and I was kind feeling despaired too. I passed, I think that for some of us it takes more strategies than others, and I know it is not so much about content because you know it. I learned strategies by doing Kaplan questinare CD, I did NCSBN and had one-on-one session with D. Taylor and I think they helped to get the mind set I needed to have. Read the rationale, but also try to analyze why some answers work the way they do. Think about expected and unexpected when it comes to prioritization, and believe that you can do it. If you would like more detail information about the strategies I used while taking the exam please send me a private message. Good luck and don't get discourage. You can do it;) too.

:balloons: TOOK NCLEX 2ND TIME ON AUGUST 1ST AND FOUND OUT THAT I PASSED. THE COMPUTER SHUT OFF AT 203 QUESTIONS, BUT I PASSED. THIS TIME I DID NOT RUN OFF TIME, I WAS STILL HAVING ALMOST TWO HOURS LEFT TO STAY ON THE GAME. FOR ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE NOT MAKE IT YET, YOU CAN DO IT. IT JUST TAKE MORE STRATEGIES AND COSTUMIZING TIME. I DID NCSBN, KAPLAN QUESTIONARE, AND THE TAYLOR REVIEW. I HAD ONE-ON-ONE ONLINE SESSION WITH DR. TAYLOR AND SHE HELPED ME TO GET THE PROPER THINKING MODE YOU NEED TO HAVE WHEN YOU ARE TAKING THE TEST. I ENCOURAGE TO KEEP TRYING BECAUSE THERE IS HOPE .

Congratulations to you! I am sure you feel relief now. Hearing you story is very encouraging I will be testing second time sometimes in August. What do you think it help with passing the third time? Kaplan's program or Suzanne's? Your feedback will be appreciated.

Thank you, You are right I need to start building my confidence. If I made through nursing school I can deal with this exam too :). Regarding "think like those who wrote the test" I think is true my husband who became a nurse last January one time told me that and that's how he did so well during school and when he took NCLEX he passed with 75 question, but I was not sure what he ment. If you have more tips on how to do this keep posted please. I will let you know when I schedule my exam againd and about the results too. Thank you again and take care Crisgom

Thank you to all of you for the feedback. I will continuing working on this review and hope my score improves as I am practicing the questions. Abandenden12 how many times did you take the same test?

congratulation!!!!! How do you sign up for Mosby's CAT?

Thank you for answering! I'm just hoping that this review really helps because I am not looking forward to take this test for third time. It is putting down my selfesteem.

Where or how did you get the question practice CD from Kaplan? I am a second timer tester. Failed first time because I run off time, and I very scared now. I want to get it right this time, but I am not sure what to use. Currently I am doing NCSBN questions, Saunders, and plan to do 3500 NCLEX Review.
