Entycing

thank you everyone for the encouragement because after that 2nd fail i didn't know what to do and at this point i still don't, but i feel alot better. i plan to go to vegas for my 25th mid-october and i don't won't to loose my concentration. maybe if i start studying now and then take a break midway through, it'll help with the calming of my nerves. i'm going to go into this study session with a clear head and pray that this 3rd time will be a charm, not even reflecting on the first 2 times. i do believe in the power of prayer @uaefan, but i don't think i prayed the right prayer and for the right reason. i should have been praying from the very beginning and not just to help me get through the exam. i don't plan of telling anyone when i'm going to test this time around nor will i be testing at the same testing center. it may sound weird to others, but i think its the testing center ((i sat at the same computer both times...maybe its just a coincidence, but then again, maybe its not)). i don't have a structured study plan. i would just answer questions and only review the one's i got incorrect. i was average between 55-60%, which is bad, so this time i'm going to shoot for 65-75%, devise a study plan and stick to it. to be totally honest, i read to much into the question and always go into that "what if" stage. i need to learn how to interpret the question without over thinking the question. i am slotted to take the acls course, but i think i'm going to hold off until i pass boards. i know i'm doing alot of rambling, but i just need to let go of some of the stress and anxiety from this exam. i have been coming to this site for so long, even before graduating nursing school and have gotten alot of information just from reading others stories.

Hello Everyone, I'm embarrassed, discouraged, and just want to give up COMPLETELY!!!!! I found out 2 weeks ago that I failed NCLEX-RN for the 2nd time with 265 questions, that same as my first time. I got my analysis sheet back and got the same "near passing" in all areas, except basic care in which I got "below passing". I don't get how I'm getting "below passing" in BASIC CARE, that should be an area that I shouldn't be getting a "below passing" in. As I have stated above that I found out 2 weeks ago, the problem I'm facing right now is not wanting to get back on the study train because I'm afraid of seeing that "FAIL" again. Please, is anyone has any advice they would like to share, I would greatly appreciate it. I refuse to give up, but I'm allowing my fear to get the best of me. ~STARTING OVER WASN'T THE PLAN LAST TIME, BUT IT HAPPENS...I GOTTA MAKE THIS TIME MY LAST TIME~

For a 5 week session its $75 and it all online

NCSBN also had a review session that's good

Your not alone!!! I took NCLEX last Wednesday, 265 quaestions, found out Friday that I FAILED. At that moment, I wanted to give up, I was VERY DISAPPOINTED in myself. I thought I had studied hard enough, but I guess I didn't. I have test anxiety and the moment I set down to take the exam, I felt lost for CONTENT. I am going to re-strategize my study plan and get all new study material. I too think Saunder's is a good book. This first time around I use the Saunder's Q&A cards ((really liked them)), the Kaplan Strategies and Review book, and Lippincott. I am going to purchase Saunder's and La Charity and repurchase Kaplan review book for my second time around. I haven't heard to the Exam Cram, but will be looking into it. I'm told you have to wait 45-90 days, so I think that's more then enough time to prepare. Today will be my first day back to work since I found out I FAILED. I am going to take this week off to clear my head, before I get my head back in the game and go hard on studying. Good Luck, claim it and you'll acheive it. SECOND TIME AROUND WILL BE OUR CHARM, WE'RE GOING TO PASS!!!!!
