Anxious Studying Mode...

Published

I want to know if I'm the only one????

I start studying a 100 question test and I get so desperate to know how I'm doing or know my results that I STOP studying before I complete the test. I feel anxious which makes me guess my answers. This happens especially in those tests that dont have the study mode option.... such as Kaplan Nclex RN startegy practice exam.

Any reccomendations on how to study taking my time instead of getting desperate?????

just answer the questions to the best of your ability. Think of the rationale you're using for picking a particular answer. It you get that question correct, read the rationale and see if it's the same one you had. However, when studying for the NCLEX, I'd recommend getting a book that focuses on Prioritization.

you gotta just bite the bullet and finish the test. i am the same way, but i will do less questions to help with the anxiety. i used to try to do 100questions, but 50 is more realistic for me. sometimes i will do 30, just so i can see how i do and review the rationales.
