anxiety is high

sounds like you're burnt out. go take a break for a few days. watch a movie, have some drinks with friends, or go to the gym. this definitely helped me out. well actually i did this everyday while i was studying so i wouldnt focus on just studying all the time.

If you have read that book twice already, I think you are prepared. I used Saunders and didn't even get through the book once. I answered a lot of the questions on the CD and referred to Pathophysiology book a friend gave me. You have to be careful that you don't wait too long in between studying for the test and actually taking it; you might forget some things.. I am not sure if you have taken it before but if I was in your shoes I would try to get a closer date. But that is just me, don't do it if you have doubts. Good Luck!!

I agree with trying to move your date up if you can.

I too was obsessed with practice questions. I did thousands of them before Nclex.

Towards the end a few weeks before my test date I would wake up and take a 20 question test, if I would score above 80% then I was done for the day. Less than 80 I would take another. I would keep going till I got the 80% mark.

That way I could feel good about myself in the fact I was prepared.

It is my thought that your doing the right thing by over preparing, I did not want to drive up to my testing center thinking, "gee I wish I would have studied more"

But you dont want to turn your mind to mush either. I dont know where you live, but we are enjoying some lovely sunny days, give your self a break and take a walk outside. The fresh air will do your mind and body good.

thanks. i really appreciate you guys for attending to this message. its really a good thing to remind me to slow down a bit, take a breather and relax... with regards to the test date, im sticking to may 18 and with high hopes and prayers, i hope that ill be giving you good news on june. btw, its my first time to take the exam and ill be taking it in manila. pls do include me in your prayers.:redbeathe
