Hey everyone!

I graduated an LVN program about 3 months ago and just finished doing a review. The review I did gives us online testing and says that if we get 60% and above on them we should do fine on the nclex. I've taken the tests and so far have done over 60% but as the days pass I'm having a harder time even attempting to take one. I get so worried that I might fail these practice tests that I end up putting them off so that I could "study" first and just end up doing other things. I know I'm basically psyching myself out but I don't know how to get over it. There is a lot of pressure from my family to pass and are even badgering me as to when I'll be taking the nclex and comparing me to distant family members who have passed because it was "so easy". I was just wondering if there was anyone else out there who's worried as I am or those who have taken the test and if theres anything that you do to help you stay focused and motivated?

Well I heard from the NCLEX test instructors that the number of questions DO NOT have anything to do with passing or failing.Im surprised your school hasent gave you how the NCLEX works.But ours told us it starts off with giving you easy questions then if you get them right then they will be more challenging.How do you really feel how you did?OVERall its over now, just stay positive!GOODLUCK tho!!!!!
