  3. First test I did fine. Now the 2nd and 3rd I've missed 8 out of 15 and 7 out of 15. I know the material pretty well and I study quite a bit, but it's the critical thinking, I guess, that I'm...

  23. I've now failed NCLEX-RN twice....

    When I was in school, many people around me were bombing the hesi exams when they knew as much, if not more, than I did! I struggled with testing for 2 semesters then suddenly something clicked for...
