mzznurse 61 Posts Jul 1, 2011 I am using Kaplan course and the qbanks. I studied the content videos, read the whole book and this last week will be spent doing qbank questions and reviewing rationales. I bought the Lacharity book, but haven't really used it. Right now, I am watching some Nurse Jackie and doing qbanks. How about you?I still feel a little anxious about this exam, but I feel like I am ready. I was scheduled to take it July 15, but decided to reschedule to an earlier date to ease the anxiety (thinking this will be out of the way soon).
suchababe 45 Posts Jul 1, 2011 i am finishing my Hurst lectures now. Hopefully, i can get it done this weekend. i also have 5 more chapters left on La charity. i am not sure if i will still be able to go to the case study part. i am doing 75-100/day questions on nclex 3500. and have done with Q1-Q4 on kaplan qtrainer. but got very low scores. 45-50% only. i dont know where this is going. only prayers and faith in God will get me through this.
mzznurse 61 Posts Jul 1, 2011 You're fine hun. The scores really doesn't say anything about your ability to pass. Don't let it discourage you. Just relax. :) You know this. I did crappy with Lacharity questions, so I just stopped using it and just focusing on Qbanks. You got through nursing school.. you are capable of passing the NCLEX. I will pray for you and I will constantly post here so I can remind you every day that you can do it. :)
jules2577 22 Posts Jul 1, 2011 i'm scheduled july 8th as well!! i'm extremely nervous. i'm answering questions from ncsbn, ati, kaplan, & davis's q&a and reviewing content from saunders. i started the lacharity book but haven't finished yet. my test scores for ncsbn have all been below passing and that's really making me nervous....especially since i think their questions are most similar to the actual nclex. i'm a repeat test taker and i have a job offer that's contingent upon me passing....no pressure!! i just pray that this time will be it. have to stay positive and focused! good luck to all of you and hopefully we will all be back here posting that we passed
katyb213 71 Posts Has 2 years experience. Jul 1, 2011 I am testing July 8th as well! I am taking Kaplan online and have been doing some Davis Q&A on the side. I have been studying for a good solid month. My Kaplan scores are below passing level though so I am nervous! Plus, I have a job offer contingent on passing so I am even more nervous.Good luck to everyone!
mzznurse 61 Posts Jul 1, 2011 Good luck guys!We're almost to our testing date. I am just doing QBanks now and just reviewing rationales.
