Hi! 8 days to go and I'll be sitting for nclex rn, I'll be puking, sweating, shaking, crying, crawling to my car, I am most likely going to have a panic attack while driving and I'll be in bed rest until I get the results
What is more important going over the content or questions?! What helped you the most? I have been reading 1000 pages of content and damn it's so hard for me to remember all the s/s , treatments, causes for every diagnosis . I feel lost! Ugh

My school used ATI and our last class contained a week-long review of content. We were given ATI review books, which were about 300 pages and summarized the content without us having to read thousands of pages. If your school didn't give you something like that, I highly recommend buying something similar. I re-read the ATI review book and did a few hundred NCLEX practice questions. I also recommend reviewing test-taking strategies. I had questions on topics I'd never even heard of, but the test-taking strategies helped me answer those.
We used ati too, I am also doing VATI I have 94% chance of passing. I asked for more assessments and my last couple of tests scores range from 75-84. But I still don't feel confident I don't know if I should focus more on questions or content
