taking nclex tom nervous

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Hey all. Im about to take the nclex pn tom and I am back and forth with my confidence. I studied about 4 hrs a day for 2 weeks *i grad in mid dec*. I mostly am using saunders green book and doing nclex questions thru them. I was doing notecards on the tables in the saunders book but that took me forever, and I feel it is way too detailed. I know nclex is harder than the questions u can practice on, and im scared. I know if u panic u will prob fail, I did good in school but I freaked out on thte hesi pn test and I know thats a good indicator on how ur going to do on nclex. I need to focus and breath, I have a headache and idk what i should do for my remanding hrs before the test tom morn. any helpful advice and tips on what they throw at u is VERY APPECIATED =]

Good luck you are going to do fine.

I just took my nclex pn last week, i gotta say being calm during the test makes you more focused at the questions. Dont forget to pray before you test !! it works !!. i did 2800 on saunders and did fine in the nclex. Overall , dont think about the test, relax, if you need to read , then read some cram notes , dont open the book at all.

let me know what happens and good luck to you.

Good luck tomorrow! Don't stress it today, you got this. Think positive and breathe deeply. =)

thanks everyone! i was nervous yesterday thinking it was going to be so detailed but now im just feeling good, i got alot of support and positive vibes, i studied so hard for this in school, and I feel God knows that and will help me acheive it. =]

Took it today and ended with 75 questions. I had no 'media' questions (pictures, audio) which makes me nervous about my results. Also, I had 20+ 'Select All That Apply' (including one with side effects of Remeron...c'mon!) =-) Lots of infection control questions...blah blah...just trying to let out some anxiety.

...my hands are still twitching. should've probably waited a few minutes to drive home

Just got the 'positive' pop-up result. I'm pretty confident now. Time to pop an Imitrex and lay down.

I just took it. got 102 questions most were infection control and reinforceing teaching. got some picture questions like 2 caluctions on measuring fluid intake. wow.. im so scared to do the trick

I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOO

I had a lot of infection control questions on today's exam as well. Weird. Congrats on passing. Although I've never heard of the trick not-working I still am anxious to see my name and number!
