  1. What to do after failing NCLEX

    I have a friend who also did worse after taking Kaplan. The first time, she got 225 questions & ran out of time. The second time, she took Kaplan & got 76 questions, & failed. There were 4...
  2. I have read posts from people who have maybe 2 or 3 NCLEX books that they are studying from. I am just wondering, how do you fit all of that content in? Someone mentioned they have Saunders (in...
  3. True! I like that!
  4. Sylvia Rayfield Review Course

    I'm sure you didn't mean for this to be funny, but I'm sorry, I was laughing so
  5. I would say start with the dean of your program, and if you don't get any information there, then try your state's board of nursing. Before I started my program, I was told, "Well, everyone is...
  6. Thanks! I agree, the Saunders book is detailed. That's what I like about it. That's what I was getting at when I mentioned that I was afraid that if I didn't use it, I might miss some info that was...
  7. Thanks!
  8. New format questions?

    The way I understand it, you get 15 questions that are practice questions, & they don't count towards your score, but you don't know which ones are the practice questions. Never heard that the new...

  14. Today I got my NCLEX results, and EVERY category was 'near the passing standard.' I thought something would be above the passing standard. That makes me angry! I have taken NCLEX twice now. The thing...
  15. I got my NCLEX results today...

    You're RIGHT! A lot does ride on this test. For me, it's not only getting on with my life, it's also having a job PERIOD! I have no benefits right now, & no source of income! I got a job last week...
  16. I got my NCLEX results today...

    Thank you for the information. I think I referred to you in one of my other posts regarding the Mosby website. There are so many NCLEX materials to choose from, & what one person thought was good,...

    Thank you, that is very nice. Especially, 'if you were close to passing, in all areas, then most of the problem was probably stress'. Everyone here is so
  18. I got my NCLEX results today...

    To my knowledge, there is no percentage. From what I have read, when you get the maximum number of questions, the computer is trying to decide if you have yet met the level of competency. It's a...
  19. I got my NCLEX results today...

    Oops, sorry, that was to the person who posted something about hypnosis. I was just wondering what they thought of it, and when they did
  22. failed three times..........

    I too have test anxiety. I took a beta blocker before testing for the 2nd time. I failed on the second attempt also. I noticed you mentioned you tried hypnosis. Did you do this for your final time, or...

  24. Does anyone else do ERI tests?

    I think ERI testing is awesome. My class (Aug. 2004) didn't have that. We had to take an ERI diagnostic test, which showed us our weaknesses, then we were sent on our way. My friend's class had to do...
  25. Kapplan's NCLEX in a box?

    This is the honest truth: 4 people (myself included) have taken Kaplan and all of us failed NCLEX on our second attempt. I can also honestly say that I could have spent a little more time getting the...
