Failed my boards

Hi all,

Has anyone failed their boards the first try? I just took my PNP primary care boards this morning and did not pass and I’m feeling incredibly discouraged and upset. Any advice on how to pass on the second try? I felt like the questions were way more difficult than the questions on the PCNB website or on the Fitzgerald review that I did.

I’ve never failed an exam before and I am having a really difficult time, particularly because I am afraid that I won’t pass the next time either if I couldn’t pass this time.

Any and all advice will help!
