Hi! I am super anxious. I'm taking my NCLEX in 3 weeks. Using Kaplan Qbank and scoring about 60%-70% on Qbanks however I don't feel too good about it because a lot of it are mostly repeat questions. Anyway, i'd like to share 2 bible verses that help me feel less anxious at times like this. Here goes:
Jeremiah 29:11
New International Version (NIV)
11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Philippians 4:6-7: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
Congratulations to all who already passed and good luck to us who are scheduled to take it. To God be the glory:)!

I'm also using Kaplan Qbank along with Hurst Review. Are you only using Kaplan? Btw, I love Jeremiah 29:11, it's actually one of my favorite bible verses. Thank you for this!

Well, I haven't taken the NCLEX but something I find to be helpful while studying in general is to focus on the questions that you're getting wrong. Is it the dosage calculations? Diagnosing a patient? Spend more time practicing those. Good luck with your studying, and don't stress about the exam! Definitely space out your studying time so you don't feel so overwhelmed.
Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."
Hi charnsuka! I'm using Kaplan qbank and bought the Saunder's book but it's too much reading for me. So I just do mostly Kaplan qbank and go over the rationale and look up stuffs that I am not very familiar with like some procedures and client teaching on that certain procedure. Those bible verses is what makes me hopeful and confident, that's why I shared it incase there are other people that feel the same as I do:)! When are you taking the exam?
Hi vanessaem! You're welcome and congratulations:)!
Hi cracklepop! Thank you for the study tip and the bible verse. I love it:)!
I felt the same way about Saunders, too much info for me to be reading - that's why I stuck with Hurst lol. Simple and to the point. I'm scheduled to take my exam the first week of May. I don't have much time left but I'm really going hard this month.
I'm taking mine in three weeks. Good luck to us and may God be with us:)!
Thanks love! God got us!
