I am just wondering for everyone who has had to retake the RN exam if when you had sat through it the time you actually passed if the questions did seem harder? I have taken the test 3 times and I keep on getting near the passing standard in all the areas. I need help??? Should I review content??? has this happend to anyone and they passed? I always get so many priority questions and stop at diffent #'S but never pass like I want to to see. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks guys

I am going to take it for the 5th time in a week ... I did use saunders and used all cd questions ...reading all rationals ...even if I got it correct. I feel more confident even if I do not know the answer, as how to rationalize it out. I was so close to passing every time too! 265 with passed or very sm amt. this is why I was glad to have a total reviw. I am more confident! I did suzzanes plan. I am reading thorough all the info she sent and studing drugs. So I will let you know how it works out! gl to you

Hello Hollyrobyn and all,
I am retaking the exam for the second time . Suzanne's first tip is to go through the Saunders NCLEX review book and do all of the quizzes in the back of each chapter. If you score less than a 75%, then you need to go back and read the content. Now, the book has about 76 chapters. After you have completed that, you need to PM Suzanne4 for the rest of the plan. I am still taking the quizzes, so I do not know what the next tips are. Look at the beginning of this discussion topic and look at her sticky she has posted. I tell you, I really found out how much i don't know by doing this plan so far. I guess it works though because everyone that has done it, passed. "God" luck to you all and God bless you and your studying.

Take a few days for yourself and then prepare again as if you have never prepared before. This next exam will not be anything like the one that you took last month.
Best of luck to you.

suzanne.. what does the 45-day policy mean??
i took my exam june 17, received my result yesterday.. can i send my reapplication form already? then just schedule my exam atleast 45 days after my first try date? or i have to wait 45 days from the date of my first try before submitting my re examination form??

If you want to use Suzanne's study plan you will need more than 45 days to complete. You have to do the first tip which can take any length of time and then 45 days to do her program. Most states you have to wait 45 days before you can resit the exam, some states have 90 days
i am done tih the 1st tip... i sent her PM already.. when would i receive in my email her 2nd tip? so i can start soon.. thank you!! =)
