Third shot at the NCLEX-RN

Published

So this will be my third attempt at passing the NCLEX. The first time I got 247 questions, the second time I had 75 questions. I'm using a private tutor right now, and a few other resources that I have, but I'm really starting to stress. I'm scheduled for my third test on Oct. 13 @ 1:00. Part of me wants to push the test back, while the other part says to go ahead and do it. It seems to be taking over my mind as in it's all that I can think about. Any pointers?

some people won't agree with me when i say this, but i would not take it until you are sure you are ready. i just took again for the 3rd time on thursday and i passed:) and i honestly pushed it back a week just to give myself a few more days to look over things i was kinda iffy about....good luck to you and i will keep you in my prayers! third time is a charm:)

The best way to study for the NCLEX is be familiar with test taking strategies as it relates to the "NCLEX perfect hospital." Make sure you know your basic ABC, Least invasive, safety, etc. If you know this stuff then your will for sure pass the exam..... Know that all things are possible and that third times always a charm.... GOOD LUCK and keep us update on how you do.... Feel free to instant message me if you need help. I recently took it and passed.

Something inside said for me to wait, so am pushing it back one week.

i just failed my NCLEX for the 2nd time so i will be on the same boat soon, my advice would be to wait until you feel confident dont rush i did that the first 2 times. trust yourself! best of luck!!
