As long as you're more than 24 hours in advance I don't think there is a fee.

I rescheduled mine...no fee. But I just rescheduled it to a new testing center same day...because in my review center they kept saying there was a "curse" at the one I was scheduled at. How could I take an exam somewhere where everyone thought was cursed...so I hightailed it out of there. LOL

I think if you test on everyday but Monday it is 24, Monday test you have to let them know before the weekend. I don't think you will EVER be able to review all the meds, when I took it the meds weren't crazy wierd ones, I knew all of them, either from hearing about them, or the med endings. But do what you feel comfortable doing. Good Luck!

I feel like I am not ready for the Nclex. I have scheduled to take it on July 3. I just started reviewing, and I feel like I need more time. Can anyone tell me how Do I reschedule the test date?

Instruction will be on the pearsonvue website on rescheduling exam date. You forfeit payment if less than 24 hours but I don't think there is a fee if plenty of notice

There is no fee to re-schedule like everyone else said as long it's in the 24 hour window before your test time. I moved mine around 5 times I think. I actually scheduled mine for June 24th...but then anxiety took over and a lot of people already took theres and had passed..so I moved it up and just took it yesterday and passed with 75!! I kind of freaked out about moving it up, but also just wanted it out of the way. Honestly, after the fact, it's really not a test you can even study for, in my opinion. You just need to know how to answer the questions. Especially the priority ones. Know your ABC's, lab values, and infection control.
Congrats! Way to go!
How many SATA and math questions did you get? Do you need to know the content in depth?
On my test, I was freaked out because of the fact I DID know all of the meds...I didn't get one I'd never heard of..I got a lot of meds that I'd given in clinical so that really helped me..I got one math...and then I'd say 6 sata's and a ton of priority..such as what pt. would you see first in a given situation...also with infection control, I'd say know what equip. you need to wear based on what disease they give you...a lot of my sata's were to choose all of the symptoms I would recognize in the given disorder. I honestly can't say it was THAT bad..so of course that scared me too..amazing what this test does to your nerves..I walked away thinking I failed because the questions didn't seem too bad and that must have meant I got all of the easy level questions..I guess that wasn't the case! Looking back, I guess I thought it wasn't bad because I was familiar with the stuff.

Some people study for three weeks, some for three months. Depends on what kind of ground you, as in individual need to cover, and how efficient you are at getting there. Make certain you give yourself enough time when you schedule.
