Have you failed the NCLEX?

Did you know that more than 20% of new graduate nurses have a difficult time passing? If you are a repeat test-taker, the first thing I want you to know is that it’s NOT your fault! The NCLEX is not a test of intelligence and it certainly does not determine how good of a nurse you’ll be. In fact, the NCLEX doesn’t even care if you remember most of what you learned in nursing school. If you really think about it, how can a test that has a maximum of 265 questions challenge your understanding of all that you learned in school?

The NCLEX is a highly conceptual exam that focuses on your understanding of the concepts that guide nursing practice. It wants for you to demonstrate an ability to apply what you’ve learned to the example scenarios that are provided in each question. It wants for you to make sense of situations where very little information is provided. What the NCLEX really wants is for you to be able to use your critical thinking skills to make safe and sound judgments. Once you are able to show the NCLEX that you are able to think in this manner – YOU WILL PASS!

Now, I know from experience that each time a person has failed the NCLEX, they experience a blow to their self-confidence. Suddenly, they start doubting what they know, their test-anxiety goes up and their ability to apply what they’ve learned becomes more difficult. They may even struggle to get back to studying, or they may even consider giving up altogether. Does this sound familiar? Well, I want you to know that you are perfectly capable of earning your nursing license and you’ll never have to say “I failed the NCLEX” ever again!

So what’s next?

The first step is to figure out where you are making your mistakes. Many repeat-test takers benefit from enrolling in an NCLEX prep program, or by working with an NCLEX Expert and Tutor. This is where I can help! Since 90% of my clients have been individuals who have failed the NCLEX, I’ve created a program that improves critical thinking and test-taking strategy.

The awesome thing about my NCLEX Strategies for Success Program is that there are several options to meet your individual needs. If your NCLEX CPR shows that you were close to passing, then the self-paced program may be the best fit for you. If you were below the passing standard in several categories, then perhaps the program with two webinars would be a good fit. For those who have failed the NCEX several times, I recommend enrolling in the program with two one-to-one tutoring sessions.

Regardless of the option that you decide to choose, the great news is that you can add on webinar or tutoring sessions while you’re actively enrolled in the program. This option allows for additional coaching, instruction, mentoring and tutoring from yours truly so I can help you develop strategies for NCLEX success!

The program includes easy to navigate instruction, end of lesson quizzes, videos, additional resources, and a readiness predictor test. At any point while in the program, you will have access to reach out to me via email, or by scheduling an inquiry call so I can help to answer any questions you may have and help you reach your goals of PASSING the NCLEX!

If you’d like to speak with me before making the decision to enroll into the program, I’d love to speak with you. You can schedule a call at anytime by visiting my contact page.

Get ready – because you’re NEXT in line to PASS the NCLEX!
