hi..im here for may nclex exam too and i'll be getting my license in CA. This will be my second time. the first time i answered 265 questions..i spent 5 hours and honestly after question 200 im feeling lost already and really wanted to freak out on the testing area. i know it's my fault, that all i think of is to finish answering all the questions and let the computer shut off. im already feeling so anxious and started thinking i might fail the test. then i felt the hunch that the computer might give me up to the maximum number of test questions..and so it happens! after the test i felt so tired and knew that i failed the challenge given to me.
i originally had my test scheduled on the last week of april but i tried to assessed myself yesterday and decided i need more time to learn how to answer priority questions (and SATA's). I've got a lot of SATA's on my last exam..Jan.
Anyway..let's start to concentrate and dismiss any negative thoughts. think that this exam is definitely for you and don't let yourself stress out. which by the way..im trying to do. i think too much. like now i really need to pass this test in order for my family to be stable. but if we have given our best shot the last time we take..then for this time around give it at the very best until it hurt so bad! my sister always tells me to study until you feel giddy and start calling yourself a nerd. that's what she does and the result is another achievement.
we can do this! trust in God always have faith in yourself and in Him.
"When the battle is too great; I ask God to take over. I get the Father to fight for me.."
I remember my brother-in-law told me that if anyone can passed this board exam! YOU yourself can do the exact same thing! We can passed!
