Nclex Tuesday


Okay friends at allnurses-I have moved my date up for NCLEX-PN. Instead of the 10th-I am going to take it this Tuesday at 12:30 and I am sooooo nervous! I have been out of school for about 4 weeks now and have been studying everyday since. I have done about 2500 questions over a 4 week period and look at the random fact throwing thread every night. What a great thread!!! With all of that said, I am a basket case!!! I know that I can do this, but I am second guessing myself so much!! I did pretty good in school, my gpa was a 3.6, but I have heard that NCLEX is like no other and that no matter how much studying you do you could not prepare for this type of test. My anxiety level is over the top. Any suggestions for calming would be appreciated. I am not going to study any more after today and will have a great labor day! Hope you all do the same!!

dont expect the computer to shut off at 75 & just keep answering each question to the best of your knowledge as they come. everyone says to completely relax the day before so your mind can absorb everything you learned. other than that, have a glass of orange juice on tuesday morning (my instructor said it will give your brain a jump start) & just go in there with confidence. good luck to you!

I just took the NCLEX PN on friday, found out this morning that I passed. The computer cut off at 85. You are right it is like no other test, but you can pass it. I did lots of questions before taking it. I did about 100 a day. Just remember to breathe and try to relax. Remember the ABC's and priority. You will be fine. Post back when you pass!! Good Luck
