Hey All,

I Graduated From Nursing School About 10 Years Ago, I Failed My Boards 2 Times And Never Took Them Again. I Would Really Like To Take The Nclex Again, Pass And Get My License. Any Suggestions On Reviewing After Such A Long Period Of Time?

First, you need to check with your BON to see what their requirements are. They may require you to complete some additional training before doing anything.

I have moved your thread to the NCLEX Forum where you will be able to get assistance on preparing for the exam; but again, please contact your BON first.

Yes, check the instructions in applying for first time licensure by NCLEX with your state board of nursing. Many state boards have a time limit on when you can no longer apply for or take the NCLEX anymore.

You can access your state board's website from here. Click the arrow next to the "Resources" tab at the top right of this page. When the menu appears, click on "Boards of Nursing". When the page of states comes up, click on the weblink to your state board of nursing. Look for information or a link on your state site to first time licensure by NCLEX testing. If the information isn't on the site, pull up the application form. Sometimes the information is included in the instructions to fill out the form.
