Day of/before NCLEX Exam

Published

NCLEX - PN

Ok so I finally received my ATT and scheduled my test date for September 1st. first available date! YEEEAAAHHH!

Now I am soooooooooo scared, I used Suzanne study guide and I feel confident in answering my questions now more so than a month ago...

Anyways my main question is, what relaxation techniques did you do the day before the exam, and the day of the exam. My exam starts at 1:30 pm and to tell you the truth I hate afternoon testing, so what in the world can I do to hold my anxiety until I take this test in the afternoon? Any help would be appreciated...

Please share your stories...

Hmmm.. you could sleep late, go for a run (or any exercise is good), or anything else that can help lower your anxiety before going into the test. You've studied and studied, so force yourself to close those books. Have confidence that you've prepared adequately.

Good luck! :)

I'm not yet where you are on this journey, but I wanted to offer my sincerest good wishes and much luck as you test. Please let us know how it goes for you, OK?

I second Franny's vote for exercise. Even if you're not a jogging type of person, getting up and walking around the block a couple of times will help you become fully alert while burning off some of that nervous energy.

Best of luck! Let us know how it goes.

Where can I find Suzanne's advice for NCLEX? I have read this on a few posts, and I am knew to site, so I am not sure how to navigate. Besides, I only log on when I am taking a study break, and if I try to investigate everything right away, I won't study. Maybe that wouldn't be so bad :chuckle
