anxious to take NCLEX!

[dana0509]

I had a schedule to take the NCLEX last Thursday (Feb 12) but had to reschedule because I'm soo anxious to take it. I feel like I'm still not ready, although I've been reviewing for 2 months now! Has any of you guys, been in my situation . what should I do?

You should buckle down and make yourself ready, then take it. You are not doing yourself any good by postponing it unless you truly study with a purpose. You are most likely as ready today to take it as you will ever be. Good luck.

the best thing to do is just schedule an exam date and pretend that you cannot reschedule it. you are ready, that is what your nursing school was for. we will never feel ready unless we read every single page of every single book they ever gave us in nursing school. You'll be amazing...plus youve been studying for a long time. i studied for a month. scheduled the test for the earliest possible date, and i found out i passed at the beginning of feb. like you I was sooo anxious, but when you get to the computer to take the test, forget what everybody has told you, and just take it one question at a time, answer each question to the best of your knowledge. i feel that it really did test minimum competency. you'll be great! you gota just do it!
