..I knew this was coming, so i guess on the back i got "near passing standards" on all topics except one, pharmacology.-which i got "below", so at least that gives me a focus--I bought that Kaplan strategies book and so far its great. --I am still discouraged, but anxious to test again. Im planning on march 10th or so.--

Im going to take this weekend off, with a child coming next month and a possible (adoption) coming later this year, AND with a 2 year old already ruling my house, A weekend off--wont seem like selfish of me.

I also tested in Jan and did not pass with 265 questions. I plan on retesting in April. I bought the Kaplan strategies book and I think if I had read this first I would have did 100% better. I think You should take your time and retest. I know what it is like to have a toddler and a new baby at once. Your wife will need you to handle more task for her. I know your pocket is/will be stretched but please prepare. I which you the best of luck and look forward to your post saying you past.

Thanks for all the encouragement everyone, I went away this weekend back to Los Angelos, (were im from originally) and visited some old friends, didnt study at all--had a great time, and came back home last night-

Yes that kaplan strategies book is GREAT !. i too wish i had that book first, --I feel i will do better next time--not that i will know more nursning material per se, but rather HOW to get rid of those dang distractor answers that i keep falling for-

I am just waiitng for the BRN to give me my ATT code so i can go on pearson view and get my date.
