i need encouragement .i am still on the 1st tip in suzannes plan this is the 8th time of me doing this nclex rn exam

my advice is dont use saunders!! i took it in may passed in 75 ?s but used Kaplan. it was the best thing i did... saunders doesnt help to with the priority ?s they asked and i felt like it was wayyy to in depth no way ur gonna remember all the stuff in saunders. if you have the 500 dollars, i would def reccomend kaplan... they give u a refund if you fail bc there pass rate in over 90%. If you decide to do kaplan do all the online stuff read the book, its way shorter than saunders and hits the points u need and do alllll the ?s they give which is like over 2000. and u will be fine and PASS with flying colors!! :) good luck

Just curious. Why would you have to take NCLEX again? In every state that I know of, once you pass that's it, even if you move to another state (because it's a national test). You might have to jump over other hurdles, but I have never heard of anyone who passed NCLEX having to take it again.

Wonder if it is because they have been away from patient care for 5 years. I just thought they would have to take a refresher course but guess the BON wants them to resit the exam
