Did you feel prepared before taking the NCLEX?

Published

Just a quick poll to see how prepared everyone was before taking the NCLEX.

1. How many questions a day did you do?

2. Did you review content or just do questions?

3. How long did you prepare for the NCLEX?

4. Did you feel ready before you went in to take it?

Thanks!

Sorry! I have no idea how that thumbs down icon got in there!

It should have been nothing at all.

got rid of it for you.

I did as many questions as I felt comfortable doing (didn't want to do too many a day and it feel more like a chore and not learn from it) I looked at the rationale of the questions especially the ones I got wrong

I think it is normal to feel not ready for it but I also believe as long as in my own mind I studied enough and gave it all my best then that is all I could ask of my self

Gentle bump...

Just trying to find out how many questions everybody did a day and for how long. Do you think questions alone prepared you?

I did 100 questions per day no more no less and even if i answered correct to a certain question i make sure that i still need to read and understand that question by heart and by mind...

1. How many questions a day did you do?

>> A couple hundreds

2. Did you review content or just do questions?

>> Mainly questions, but I looked up any content that I didn't know from the rationales. Or anything I wasn't sure about and thought I should know.

3. How long did you prepare for the NCLEX?

>>I was studying a little bit at first but once I got the ATT and picked a date I studied hard. I did questions and reviewed rationales every day for about 3 weeks.

4. Did you feel ready before you went in to take it?

>> No, I don't think anyone feel ready. But hey it's the result that counts.

Took mine on Wed (09/12/07) and just found out today that I passed!

Got 75 questions and when I came out I was so uncertain.

(I was very nervous when I went in to take exam too)

I felt like I guessed almost all of the questions!!!
