Wow, thats funny bc I have not scheduled the test again bc I need the funds as well. I live in the Tampa Bay area..you? If you are near by I would love to share pointers and help eachother out on the Dreaded test if you are up to it... thanks again!

Thank you...I should have mentioned it was Florida...do you know what all it entails? How long is the class?

Good luck and know that people are thinking and praying for you!! You CAN do this and you just have to believe that in yourself!! Good luck tomorrow and take a deep breath! :)

I have taken it twice and worried about failing the 3rd time around. I looked at the class that has been mentioned and it's very expensive! I was just curious if this was required or an option that people have? Thank you in advance!! :)

Thank you! I will def be looking on here for the support! Good lUck to everyone! We can all do this

I would say def. the infection control and prioritizing is a MUST!!!! Remember tho that all content is asked, but it's how they ask it...that's the important part. Good Luck!

I am taking my test for the 3rd time as well and hope everyone well on their next try. No one understands how it feels to see FAIL 2x's! It takes a beating on your ego and confidence, but we have to get up and try again! Like one of the writers said, we made it through Nursing school and we can make it through this as well. We are fighting for this title, which only means that we will appreciate it that much more!! Good luck to everyone!!!!!

I would not waste your money on it unless you will feel more comfty with it. I bought it and I can tell you that you will learn the same things in the Kaplan book which is a lot cheaper as you would if you took the online course. It has all the techniques they use, how to prepare you. I would buy the saunders or mosby's book with lots of ?'s in it. Hope this helps :)

Thank you thank you to all of your kind words!!! I will be looking at these posts all the way through my studying time! I hope to be posting that I pass on my next go around! Thank you again :)

I just got my results and they were FAIL again!!! I am SO emotionally drained and just dont know what to do differently than I did for the last 2 tests! I have been doing ?'s from Kaplan everyday and looking up subjects I was not clear about. The ?'s on the NCLEX are SOOO different than the ones given as practice. I just can not believe that I failed again...anyone who can help me get through this, please!! Thank you

Most important...Congratulations!!!! Thank you for your notes and words, they really helpem me calm my nerves as I am going into the test for the 2nd time very soon! Knowing that yours shut off at 75 is a good sentence to hear bc I have heard otherwise! I will be thinking of what you talked about the dsay of my test! Thank you again

It is so wonderful to hear an RN in the NICU to want to teach students and have them enjoy their time in that area. When I did my round there, I left feeling like I was not wanted and would never be invited back there again. It was exactly as you stated, I was dropped off, assigned to a Nurse that wanted nothing to do with me and did not speak to me unless I asked her a questions and with that I would only get a few words from her. I went in there wanting to learn so much and when I left, I wanted to be anything other than that Nurse I had that day. I would never want someone leaving after having me as a Preceotor and thinking the way I did when I left. Kodos to you and I wish there were more people that had your enthusiasm!!

Thanks :) I need all the advice I can get!!

I am having a hard time deciding whether I should apply for at a local hospital now or wait until I have passed the NCLEX. Any advice on if working is a good idea while studying for NLCEX?
