I have taken and failed the NCLEX twice now, not only am I beyond embarrassed I am now also getting discouraged. The first time I was not prepared at all, I had just had a baby 3 weeks prior and should of rescheduled but I didn't. This last time I bought the $30 app and used that for study also did a little Kaplan. I am 1 of 8 that failed from my class of 18 students which is unheard of from what I've been told by all my nursing friends. My school experience was the worst, between a few other students giving the class a bad name and the instructors constantly telling us we were the worst class (behavior wise) in the schools history. I feel like they didn't care to give us a good foundation. More often then not we were told that we were adult students and need to figure it out ourselves. I have a close friend currently in the program and she tells me that they still are making rude remarks about my class, especially when they found out how many of us failed. They are also treating that class completely different then they treated mine. I made good grades during the program, but I can't seem to pass this test. Both times I have gotten 205 questions. Any tips on which direction I should go with preparing myself would be extremely appreciated!
