I took my NCLEX for the 2nd time and still failed..
My first time I honestly wasnt ready I felt pressured to put an early date after graduating..
Now for my 2nd time I studied so hard.. I really thought I had it this time.
I used Uworld for a little bit till it expired. I used some LaCharity. I used Exam Cram alot, I used Nclex Mastery everywhere. I used the 35 page guide floating around here the week before my exam. I also used saunders.
I did sooooooo many questions I lost count.. I felt ready...
I dont know what else to do. Im missing something to passing this exam. Im really depressed because I really dedicated time and effort this time and still didnt pass. I feel like I may not make this. Also I passed my exit Hesi Exit for the first time and it should have been a high indicator to passing the first time..
What do I do?

It'll be good to see what your results were and compare them to last time. Once you get them I would look to see...
Are your weak areas still the same?
Are there any areas you improved on??? if so, were they areas you studied a lot to prepare this time??
I would also contact your school. My school told us they wanted to know if we failed so they could help us come up with a study plan to help us out.....
I never used UWorld, our school had us buy Kaplan... but I know that if you did not pass you could contact them and have your subscription extended.... it was part of their "pass guarantee".
I'm sorry this happened. I know that some people struggle with the NCLEX... it does not mean you won't be a great nurse, it may mean you have a hard time taking tests.
Thanks, I will let you know once I get my report.
