jadu1106 908 Posts Has 4 years experience. Aug 17, 2008 how strong you are!!! you are doing the best thing by not giving up and staying positive about the nclex. i will be testing for my 4th time this october. i am now working on suzanne's plan, and i strongly suggest you continue with that also. you have made it this far! it may seem discouraging, but you are not alone. you can do this and you will succeed. focus on studying questions and read and re-read the rationales to every question whether you get them wrong or right. study content, not just test taking strategies. best wishes to you. :)jadu1106p.s. remember this is just a test.

PEBBLES1 284 Posts Specializes in heart failure and prison. Aug 18, 2008 Just keep up the POSITIVE energy. I am going to keep you in my prayers. The good thing is, you are a real fighter and since you want to be a nurse, then you will be. This is the last time for this test, because the next time you take it, your results are going to say PASSED.

Atchley4 3 Posts Aug 19, 2008 I am in Louisiana and we are only able to take it 4 times. The only review recommended here is the Hurst review. They have interesting ways to make you remember things that seemed so complicated. I also used the Saunders 4th edition for the practice questions. Don't give up! You can do it!! Remember those affirmations from Mental Health!
rudybigdog1 17 Posts Aug 19, 2008 I am right thre with I have not passed the test 5 times, I took some time off but I am ready to get back at it. i just found this web site last night and am so very glad, I already feel support. I believe that you can do it, and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

kjwrn 19 Posts Specializes in Ortho/Neuro--Provider Relations--Q/A--UR. Aug 23, 2008 I too failed on my 1st try. I made the mistake of going in the afternoon with a group from school. As not everyone will pass/fail with the same amount of questions, and everyone answers questions at a different rate of time...I paniced when 1 by 1 those I knew were done. The 2nd time I went by myself, took a pack of Bubble Yum and chomped my way to a 75/PASS.Now after 11 Years out of school and 5 away from pt.care...I find myself needing to once again take the test. If you have not done so before try Suzanne's NCLEX REVIEW.GOOD LUCK ALL!
