For all the people with NCLEX jitters: STOPPED at 246 questions and Passed!!!

Nursing Students NCLEX

:heartbeat hi, well here is my story. i wanted to share with the people that are about to take nclex rn. i just took mine and it stopped at 246 questions. i took the whole 6 hours alotted to me. my thoughts were that i truly failed it again... but i had confidence because: i was getting the questions at a critical thinking level. it was a dreadful 6 hours and, i had to work 12 hour shift after that. but i made it and, what helped me was that i strengthen my knowledge level by going over the basic knowledge material that every nurse should know: (i.e. med/surg, medicatiions...). the biggest help of all was the kaplan book that taught me how to answer the nclex questions. soooo, don't take your time for granted. study every chance you get. set aside approximately 3-4 hours a day to strengthen your knowledge level. read the kaplan book to show you how to answer the questions. if you are an lpn, then you have the knowledge. definitely read the kaplan book. i know they offer like a week long course too. god bless to all the people here that share in their compassion, patience, & commitment to people in need!!! :D
