@Alexia6012 First of all congrats to you on passing NCLEX and not giving up. When I used Uworld I did not finish all of their questions but I probably should have. Did you ever redo the questions you got wrong? Maybe I need to do that too. Thanks for your help.

Thanks everyone for the input. @RNNPICU, BSN, RN Thank you for the encouragement and advice. I always doubt myself and that is what I need to work on. I need to start thinking positive!

Thanks for your comment. I have heard of Kaplan I just don't know if one day of review will help me. My school offered hesi live because we had to pass an exit exam in order to graduate. Hesi live consitited of 3 days cramming a bunch of review and tips. In my opinion it did not help me at all along with more than 50% of my classmates who failed hesi the first time. I am thinking about doing excell nursing review which consist of 12 days. I just don't personally know anyone who has taken it. You're right about not studying the day before the exam. Reviewing the day before has never helped but just add on more anxiety.

Hello everyone, This is my first post. I've heard about this website since my second semester of nursing school. I am looking for any advice since I have just failed my second attempt on NCLEX. Here is a short background about me. I graduated from a nursing program in May 2016. I took NCLEX the first time in September and failed at 76 questions. I felt devastated to know that I failed at only 76 questions. I will be honest and say that I did not prepare well for my first attempt. I took a break because I was so depressed. I got myself together and studied so hard for my second attempt. I've used HURST review, all kaplan qbank questions, questions from uworld, and PDA book from LaCharity. I just found out yesterday morning that I have failed again for the second time. I ran out of time at 230 questions. I am on the edge of just giving up because I DONT KNOW how to prepare myself for NCLEX. I feel so ashamed of myself because most of the class I graduated with have all passed. I will also add that I have never been a good test taker. I have been struggling with anxiety and panic attacks for almost 4 years. I went to see a doctor 2 years ago for my anxiety and she did not want to prescribe me anything and told me I was just fine. I would greatly appreciate any advice.
