I feel u, my test is also on 17, u just need to relax for a day or two, because u overloud ur self, to much stress its not good, take a day off, go do something, i try to study every day at least 300 questions, when i start falling its time to refresh ur self:)

You shouldn't be taking more than 150 questions a day, that could be your issue. You can study everything under the sun and nclex will still stump you. Take it easy for a while, I spent a week studying for my boards and finished with 75 questions and 7 select all that applied. Just don't overthink it. I would do 10 qbank questions at a time and that worked really well for me. Good luck!!

I don't suggest reading content perfectly. Thats what I did my first take at NCLEX. I pretty much memorized and read both the Kaplan Basics and Course Book cover to cover and twice. It helped me only like 10-15% on NCLEX. I found NCLEX wasn't on the small details and specifics but more on concepts for me so most of what I studied never came up. Try working on attacking the NCLEX questions. Also at Kaplan they say a 60% above on exams could be a good sign. Just relax, there is still time to improve your scores before the exam date. Confidence is key at NCLEX.
