Thank you so much for this. Honestly, you are the epitome of a hardworking nurse. I have failed twice now- each attempt answering ALL 265 questions!!!! So discouraging, but I'm not giving up! It does suck seeing all your friends move on and this test stands between doing what you love! If you have your study calendar or any detailed notes I would appreciate it! My biggest struggle right now is creating a new plan because I'm still so distraught.

I have recently taken the NCLEX twice now, and in desperate need of advice. ONLY encouraging and positive advice, PLEASE. I am my own worst critic and I want to become a nurse so badly, that anyone telling me I should give up would not help me in any way. It would only make me more depressed. Both attempts of the NCLEX I have gotten all 265 questions. When I received my letter of results I was "Nearly passing" on ALL categories on BOTH attempts. It's frustrating because though I'm close, I can't seem to stay above the passing line. I did Hurst review and still am using it to study. If anyone has been in a similar situation and overcame this struggle please let me know what helped you! I'm about to start intensively studying again. Both NCLEX attempts I studied a ton, so as you can see I'm very discouraged to begin again. As stated above, this is my ultimate DREAM and I am so saddened that I am having such a hard time with this. I've always struggled with tests, but I believe I can do this! If anyone used the Saunders comprehensive review book I'm curious as to how people used it to study. I purchased it, but I seem to have trouble finding an effective way to use it because it's so much material! If anyone created a study calendar or so using this resource or anything else please share as well. Thanks everyone!
