Nursing Students NCLEX

Finally have my test scheduled July 21st at 1400! Our class had to do VATI before getting our ATT. And I've been doing about 75-100 questions out of the Saunders comprehensive review everyday. Just wondering about any other tips and tricks to go over before the big day. Also wondering if there's anyone else who will be compulsively checking to see if they passed next week. :up:

God i hope those questions aren't the only ones you've been using

Saunders doesn't even closely measure up to NCLEX. I would suggest Kaplan Qbank.

I will be taking NCLEX on the 21st as well. Lets both be positive, i'm freaking out already but I still try to calm down Best of luck to both of us!

Retesting on the 23rd....nervous but studying my booty off! Good Luck!

Taking mine on the 21st as well! Soooo nervous! I've been using Kaplan Qbank. í ½í¸« Hope we all pass!

I take mine on July 21st too. Ive been doing Kaplan trainers and qbank questions and looking at their book that came with the class I took

I retake my NCLEX for the 3rd time on the 28th. The last time I took it this year I went to question 205 and failed. I did a review class the week before. This time around I am not doing a review class. I did Kaplan exam prep questions and decided to buy 1 month access Kaplan Qbank. Scoring so far 50% 51% 56% 58% nothing over 60%. Every test I do, I write the rationales that I wasn't clear of down on index cards. Today I'm looking more into pharm and studying drug categories and side effects and precautions. I found the NCLEX PN info sheet on here. I'm printing it today. Any other suggestions? I've really been studying more than when I took the test last time. I really want to pass this time around.

I take mine on the 22nd good luck to everyone that's about to test and congrats to those who have passed!

I will be writing the week after you guys. I'm already so tensed up and nervous about it. I feel like no matter how many q's I do I keep forgetting things. Does anyone know if questions really are better than content?

Content is important but I feel like they are more concerned with you practicing safely. So by that they will ask priority questions, delegation, signs and symptoms. The biggest thing is critical thinking. Nursing school was all about testing your content knowledge. The NCLEX wants you to critically think in a situation while also practicing safely (if that makes any sense haha).

Thank you for your kind reply. What you said makes really good sense.. which makes me even worried because I'm not sure how to prepare for it, in better words I dunno how well prepared I am. I have done lots of questions more than content but also went over content decent enough. I'm a bad test taking however and no matter how many times I try using those strategies for answering I can't seem to get the right answer always narrowed it down to 2 and end up picking the wrong one.
