@p.graham09 hi I took my nclex last Oct for the 4th time and passed!! Praise God! I want to share with you what I did. After taking the nclex the 3rd time and failed I decided to give myself a break. I didnot study for almost 2 months when I felt that I was ready to take the nclex again. I set my mind that it was going to be my last time and that I WILL PASS. I used kaplan, mosby, and exam cram. I also asked for help from my teacher. Know your strengths when studying. Are you good in studying alone or with a group? I personally think that studying with a group helped me ALOT!! Take your time when studying. I read here that most people studied for a month or a little over a month. I studied for almost 4 months but that's bcos I had to work and I get really tired and lazy studying hahaha the first month of studying was basically just a warm up. A few weeks before my test I sat down and evaluate myself. I timed myself in doing 205 questions for 5 hours or less(basically nclex style). I think this prepared me to take my nclex also a week before my exam I stopped studying and the reason being was my brain was just so tired from studying. I felt like I cant take anymore info. So I decided to stop studying and just TAKE IT!! On the day of the exam, I had a good breakfast and was VERY CONFIDENT THAT I WILL PASS THE TEST. Also a piece of advice, everyday tell yourself that YOU WILL PASS YOUR NCLEX. Dont let other people pull u down. Have faith in yourself and always remember if they can do it, you can also do it. I wish u all the best and good luck on your nclex! í ½í¸€
