Hi my fella allnurses in the house! It's a breeze finding this site and getting a lot of tips regarding my preparation for the boards. Here's my story, I just took my NCLEX-RN last May '08 and it turned out that I didn't pass, I must admit that I was truly devastated and I feel really down. I decided to took a breather for a couple of months and dealt with it, now I felt like I am more than ready to take the plunge again. I already read the Saunders 4th edition wayyyy back, planning to re-read and re-master it again. I took Kaplan too...both the online thing and the lecture...I need your prayers and utmost support as it is my 2nd time to take the big plunge again...how long should I prepare for the test...planning to try suzanne's plan as advised by my brother who is a fellow nursing graduate and a local board passer in my country (Phils.). :typing
I need your prayers and encouragements yah all...thanks in advanced and I'm so glad to be part of the allnurses.com family

Follow her frst tip which states do the quizzes first and only read the chapter if you get less than 75%. If you plan to do it her way do it as she has written.
Good luck
thanks that's what I've been doing...do you think how long is the best and most logical timeframe that one should allot for preparing for the NCLEX...I don't wanna over read...or uhmm I don't wanna stress myself out...just started reviewing like 2 weeks ago...

Wishing you good luck!
Once you have completed her first tip look at setting a date about 2 months and then send Suzanne a pm in the format she requests with the information she asks for and she will add you to her list. She only sends mailing out twice a month hence me saying 2 months to set your date. Her plan takes approx 48-50 days to do. If followed correctly many have passed
