Freaking out about Nclex in 2 weeks

Hi folks!

I'm a recent nursing school grad and I am taking my Nclex Rn in early July. I am starting to freak out. I am using ATI and Saunders as review. I read the content and take a content based test My scores are ranging from 60%-70's. I'm nervous and all sorts of things are running thru my mind. I graduated in May and took a few weeks off from studying because I just couldn't do anymore. How do you guys like Saunders? We used ATI in school so I am used to the questions but Saunders covers content I have never seen. I don't know what to do. Did I wait too long to begin studying? I literally feel like all my nursing knowledge is oozing from my ears. Help!

I am taking mine in 2 weeks too. I only took a week off, and still nervous. We used ATI too: I HATE ATI...but it's a good source now that I go back over the content. I just didn't like how the questions were worded. I am doing Saunders now. I use the cd to keep up with the question format and practice SATA. It's ok but the best thing I've done was Hurst. I know my core content and that makes me feel better. I would practice a lot of infection control and priority as this is what a lot of people on here who have taken the test say is a good chunk of the test. Good luck!

Also, sorry im blabing but there is a study guide floating on this site. It's awesome. I printed it and go over it all the time. It's 35 pages of pure information!

I used Saunders a little bit for studying. I would use it to go over content as I was reviewing kaplan questions. I honestly found the book too overwhelming and detailed, but it was great for when I wanted to study something specific I didn't understand well. I also read through the basic chapters at the beginning (fluids/electrolytes, positioning, nutrition, etc.).
