Study Info Needed

[lynds80]

Hi,

I recently failed the NCLEX on the first try as you imagine I was crushed. The only thing I studied were Kaplan questions, which I thought were nothing like NCLEX questions.

I need some advise as to what I need to do different this time to pass? Any suggestions or feedback is appreciated.

Thank you.

Was it the Kaplan Strategies book about 1" thick? I think Kaplan does a great job of teaching how to take the different types of questions and a systematic way to approach each question. You must remember that the NCLEX is not testing for content but for application and there is a steep learning curve to answer questions like this. Practice, form a study group, hire a tutor...
