Hi y'all!
I'm taking my exam on Thursday. I did the second 150 questions practice exam in the Kaplan CD today and it was HELL!
I'm telling you, half the time I felt like I really didn't know what I was doing. At the end it turned out fine, I scored 71%, but I was left with such a crappy feeling...
I'm starting to get all anxious about my fluids ans electrolytes, too... I guess most of it is just normal pre-exam jitters, but oh lord! I really feel I'm losing it!
I really hope that 3 days from today everything goes well and I can forget all about this time...
grrrrrr.

It's "normal" to feel that way. You may have the same feeling during NCLEX (at times) and after you take the NCLEX. At least I had it, but it turned out OK despite everything. Good luck to you! You can do it!

Good luck and take the next few days off. You can do it! Just memorize your test strategies, normal lab vaules, and sleep get lots of sleep the nite before. Yes most people even the brightest of the class gets nervous this exam is hands down the hardest, most stressful exam you' would have taken. Best of luck!! If you need some motivation write you name on a sheet of paper, "First Last Name, R.N."
Come post your results on the kaplan scores treads too! https://allnurses.com/nclex-discussion-forum/nclex-kaplan-practice-697842.html
