Hi everyone! I am taking the exam for the second time at the end of April. Thank you for starting this thread for us all to chat. I have been using Saunders and just about every nclex cd out there! I was going to use Suzanne's plan, but alas- I guess it's too late? If anyone has any pointers or thoughts on how I should study I would appreciate it. I got my results back and had near passing in every category, so I'm lost on where to start. I did begin Suzanne's first tip. Any other advice. Thanks!

OOh good luck. What a DH, you checking on this website for her! Keep us posted

Me too, I was hoping to use Suzanne's plan. I found out I didn't pass a few weeks ago and since then I have been working on her first tip, using Saunders and working on getting enough posts to PM her. If anyone has some suggestions on what my next step should be, I would really appreciate it! Thanks so much.

congrats!

thank you so much- I had the same problem, over and over priority questions. I'll look into this book then.

I didn't pass I am ashamed and beyond heartbroken. I have no idea how I could have studied "better"

This is such a nice message- thank you so much. I really appreciate hearing your story.

Nobody has any thoughts?

I am so sorry to hear that prayin we will get through this!

Hi everyone, I am a new member but have been reading these forums for years and just need some support right now I did not tell any of my friends or family that I was taking the NCLEX today and I feel super lonely! I REALLY think I failed and I have been shaking and in tears ever since. I studied a good amount but it just wasn't enough! I even took a review course that I feel was a total waste of time. I am a very good student but have never been good at standardized testing. I tried to keep a positive, open mind about it but I feel like I am just cracking right now. So here's the deal. I did not get many SATA questions so that worries me. Should that worry me? Does it matter? I consider them 'harder' questions so it worries me that I didn't make it to a certain tier of questions. I had a ton of pharm I didn't know, priority/delegation/precautions. Over and over. Over and over. I also stopped somewhere past 200- I was having a difficult time breathing at this point and figured I was going to 265 so I don't know the exact number. I also know I got the last question wrong, and this is freaking me out!! I know it doesn't necessarily mean anything but psychological it is a killer. My friend told me how abrupt the test stops but I still wasn't prepared. Many of my friends only got 75 and they all passed. I know of a handful who got to 265 and passed and some who got to 265 and failed. I have been reading posts and it looks like the proctor people do not know whether or not you passed. But she was very nice and said ' good luck in your new career'- im praying that is a good sign. I just don't know HOW or WHEN I can study for this again if I fail. Plus everyone is taking it now so I feel like people will just know if I failed... Any thoughts or advice? Be honest with me if you think I should be afraid, but gentle cuz I am pretty fragile. Thank you Ruby
