December Test Takers Support Group

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

So, I finally feel I should not give up......I will be a retaker for 2nd time in December. I felt so low when I failed the test in July'07. I was thinking to take in october but just couldnt get motivated to study. In the meantime, I joined RN-BSN program. So, currently I am in school taking 15 credits of classes. I need to have my RN license before winter so I can do practical in communnity health, a required class for BSN.

After visiting this site almost everyday, reading success stories and encouragement given by one of my wonderful instructor from my ASN program, I am motivated to do it.

So, newcomers as well as retakers, Lets get together, support each other and lets pass the RN test. WE CAN DO IT.

For now, I have started practicing Q&A at least 2 hrs/day from Saunders CD. I will keep you updating and hope you all will share the tips as well.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF US. :welcome: TO THE SUPPORT GROUP .

just try to get enough sleep,.. so that your brain wont be on sleep mode during the exam... thats what i would do..

you've been studying for so long already, the brain is like a muscle it needs rest to be on full potential to grow..

just breathe..

thanks so much narsingboy! i'm waiting for your results.. i'm praying for you. can't wait to hear the good news! =D

i would say do mock test and go over the rationales that you get wrong, not the ones you get right. you already have studied for the right ones to get it right.

I love all the support in this thread.

I have a question about meds, when you guys study are you just studying nursing implications for a med or are you also studying side effects, contradictions, indications, actions etc... And also how much focus should I be putting on meds? There are so many.

wat i did was make a list of the usual drugs used for the diseases then post on a wall so that everytime i look at that wall i can be reminded of it..

example, Synthroid = hypothyroidism, etc..

then group it into Cardiac Meds, GI Meds, Endocrine Meds..

i used it that way, it worked for me...

its all about how u remember things by..

good luck!

Iel: I did go over my note during last week and did not do too much questions, maybe 100 questions a day. I made sure I got enough rest and sleep, eat well. Just relax and pray a lot, I have faith in you that you will pass.

good luck 2b_bsrn0523. i am sure that you will do fine.

thank you so much for your support! yes..maybe that's what i will do for my last week.i'll just go over my notes.and the rationales of the questions that i took.then just do some test questions.it just make me anxious when people here post that when they used the kaplan they go over the questions,read the book and the online course twice.while here i am wasn't able to watch all the videos.i focused myself more on the book and the and practice questions. thanks again ergito2!

i just have a question for kaplan users.. here's my qt scores. 1=63%, 2=67%, 3=64%, 4=63%, 5=66%. qbank-61%. I haven't answered 6&7 yet i'm saving it for my this week. i'm afraid that my scores are just consistent on the 60's.does anyone would like to comment on this?thanks in advance! :)
