265 questions AGAIN!!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I took the NCLEX on February 23, 09 and failed with 265 questions. I figured I didnt study enough so I quickly jumped back on the horse and read the entire saunders and hurst review books thinking this should do it! I did all the post chapter exams and scored in the 70's. HA!! I took the test again yesterday feeling more confident with the books I have read but low and behold... I was there till the end again 265 questions!! I feel so disappointed with myself. Everyone else from my class passed at 75 questions on their first try... its really frustrating. :angryfire Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do differently to study if I failed again? :o

The wait is killing me! Its unbearable!! Maybe I should go do something rather then stock the BRN website LOL

Wait for your results before you get upset. If you didn't pass, maybe you should look at the way you prepared. There is a difference between simply reading text and actually studying. Perhaps you weren't thorough enough. Answer questions and study the rationales. Wishing you good luck.

I failed first time with 265 and took same or near on 3rd attempt and passed. As suggested wait for your results before you start thinking the worst. Good luck
