Second Time Failure

I just took the NCLEX exam on Monday, and paid the 7.95 for pearson's quick results only to find out that I have failed again. The first time I got 211 questions. I was really bummed out because I really studied so hard. This second time I tested I only had 115 question, and I had a good feeling when I was done. I took the Kaplan review course beforeI even took the exam the first time and didn't pass. This time I did the learningext.com and still didn't pass. I also had a tutor from school. I am so disappointed in myself and don't know where to go from here or how to study again for this test.

I am sorry to hear that you failed the exam. If they send a statement speaking of your weak points try reviewing that and for now, give yourself a chance to grieve and do something nice for yourself. I wish you the best of luck the next time.

I am so sorry. What do you think might help you pass the next time? It is content or strategy that you think might be of help?

I thought I knew the content; I was able to narrow the answers down to 2 choices and I made sure to pay attention to my strategy techniques from Kaplan this time. But since none of that helped; I don't what will actually help me pass next time. I am thinking of doing Suzanne's Plan since it is highly recommended on this site.
