I passed my NCLEX on third try. I was so overwhelmed with all the material out there, I studied from so many books. Finally, I took the NCSBN study guide course and used the RN exam cram. I prayed ALOT!!! I do not attend church regularly, but I do believe in the power of prayer! I prayed to St. Joseph of Cupertino for success in examinations daily! Do practice questions and read the rationales, I cannot express that enough. I also believe the NCSBN helped me tremendously. I would recommend NCSBN to everyone! Most important believe in yourself, BREATHE, and just tell yourself you got this! Good luck to you!!! Say this prayer daily and before you go in to take the exam: O Great St. Joseph of Cupertino who while on earth did obtain from God the grace to be asked at your examination only the questions you knew, obtain for me a like favour in the examinations for which I am now preparing. In return I promise to make you known and cause you to be invoked. Through Christ our Lord. St. Joseph of Cupertino, Pray for us. Amen.
