Thank you :-) was not a fun test as you all know hahaha. And i didnt know about the credit card thing. I did just read, after I saw your post, that they make you do that now because they are sick of people getting free answers and not paying the whopping $8 lol. Is what is, I dont wanna hear the words NCLEX ever again. hahaha

Ok let me please put this to a rest for you. I took my NCLEX Thursday April 2 2015 at 11am. That night my RN friend coned me into doing the trick to see if I passed or not because he could not take it any more. The website took me all the way to entering my credit card information. According to the trick this means I failed. Today I paid the 7.95 for my results and it said I passed. Do not believe the hype about the trick. All it did was depress me after an exhausting hard 78 questions that drove me nuts with reasoning my answers all night. So now I am Mikey RN and I am living proof the Pearson trick does not work. BOOM!

Hey I just took my NCLEX today and sadly the trick took me to my credit cared screen, however. ATI questions are nothing close to what I saw. I blew through all my ATI practice tests and scored pretty high in school on the mandatory proctored exams. The NCLEX is so vastly different from any practice test I have seen thus far, and I feel that any practice questions I took from ATI were a waste of my time. However it did help in RN school for a "Cliff Notes" reference material when you could not read the entire chapters for the week.

Really, that is awesome, I have been waiting for Khan to finish that for a year now. I am glad I saw your post. I forgot all about this. Khan Academy actually helped me a lot with A&P, visual learning is such a big help with my studies.

I honestly do not know if this helps, but I had a friend that applied to nursing school with myself and when he was seeking assistance with GPA they wiped grades off his transcript that were non related to his major such as an F in Video Broadcasting and a D in Into to Radio. It was from an old major that he attempted when he first got out of high school. Maybe a visit with the Dean can eliminate non necessary classes from the transcript that are non needed credits. Just a thought. Hope it helps.

First, take a deep breath...ahhhhh :-) There is no failing, just maybe you are not ready at this moment in time. I do not know your current situation, or anything else that you may have distracting you. I had many problems in the beginning of nursing school myself comprehending the material and figuring out how to answer questions. A little history of myself, I work as a CNA in the Surgical ICU of a Level I Trauma center, I graduated from CNA school as valedictorian, and have been ranked an employee of the month many times in the last 5 years. I felt as a valuable employee, my experience, and my resources of other nurses, nursing school should of been a breeze. Much to my dismay, it was one of the most difficult things I have ever done. Now I can only speak from my own experience, but I needed time to find out who I really was and how I functioned as a person. I know it may sound a little silly, but it was not until my second go around at nursing psychology that I finally got the entire concept of what it actually took to be a nurse and how I myself worked as a human. As I learned, nursing psych class was all about self awareness, and helping me fine tuned the skills I needed to study, relax, focus, rest, and even control the frustrations I had when I thought these RN questions were the most ridiculous things I have ever heard of. Seriously...who in the world is going to ask me in my scrubs in the middle of a supermarket about non-pharmacological forms of pain control for their breasts relating to post part-tum and cabbage leaves. Sorry, that still to this day is my favorite NCLEX practice question I ever had. Point I am trying to make, is that finish this entire venture into nursing when you are ready. Take a step back and learn who you are first. Maybe the class is too fast paced for you, perhaps you need extra time on exams in quiet rooms, maybe you are a visual or SIM learner like myself, or maybe its just hard for you to focus into the areas of study you do not have excitement for. All in all, self awareness is a large part in finishing nursing school. Hope this helped your decision. Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
