Took nclex 9 times

Published

Please I need advice before taking nclex again I don't know what else to do I did everything. I've been trying to pass nclex for the past 4 years. Please if anyone have suggestions please let me know.

Libran I am not going back to school I have a Bachelors degree in nursing.

People have been very respectful and have offered thoughtful solutions. It is a very difficult situation you are in and I can appreciate the frustration it must create. I am sure with each passing year it gets harder and harder as your distance from formal education widens.

After four years, a slew of review courses, and nine attempts, are you still committed to being a nurse? If so, I applaud your dedication, but I can't help but wonder if you might be happier moving in a different direction, one where you can utilize your degree without being an RN.

Best of luck.

I used Hurst review and told all the nurses I precepted about Hurst. One nurse I knew while I was a PCT failed 3 times and got hypnotized and passed the 4th time. Maybe it is test anxiety.

Wow!! That's amazing! That really blows my mind!

I'm not trying to be a Debbie Downer, but it may be time to consider going through a nursing program again. Nine attempts in four years leads me to believe your original schooling did not do it's job. JMO.

We have class 3x a week at Starbucks. He's only local. I may need to recommend him teaching a online class or doing a online video. He charges $150 for 4 sessions but he mentioned his price going up to 200 this year

If the guy is known among NCLEX takers for not having his students PASS the NCLEX

then maybe he isn't the right person to ask...

I strongly suggest you open the Kaplan Test-Taking strategies book

Amazon.com: Kaplan NCLEX-RN 2012-2013 Strategies, Practice, and Review WITH CD-ROM (Kaplan Nclex-Rn Exam) (9781609785659): Kaplan: Books

and learn how to answer the questions. It will teach you how to break down a question and analyze

what is the focus, the distraction, etc. of each question.

I'm not sure if you read that wrong or if my post was unclear. The guy IS KNOWN for helping students who have failed NCLEX before pass. He guarantees that if you follow his system & does what he says you will pass. So far so good. I'll update everyone after I test next month
