ready or not?


When do you know you’re ready to take the nclex-pn exam? My mother keeps telling me take it when I am ready, but the thing is I don’t know when I am ready. On the comprehensive test I would score within the 65%-78% range, either from Saunders, Lippincott, Mosby’s and Delmar. Every day I would do 200-300 questions and not even read the book, Is that a bad move for myself?

How long have you been working at this? Only you will know when enough is enough for you. Just schedule a date at least three weeks from now and then continue to prepare until that date and take the test. If you plan to wait until you think you are ready you will never take it. None of us would. Good luck to you. We hope to be hearing from you soon that you have passed the test.

I would read the chapters in the reveiw books where you got the lowest scores. You may also want to try The Random Facts Thread for some memory joggers.I agree with Caliotter3 just don't forget to take a break before the test. Good luck.
