NCLEX... I'm freaking out..help !!

[scoick]

Ok, here's is deal.....

I've been an LPN for over 15 years... I've never worked acute care.

I graduated in December with my RN....

I'm am totally freaking out on taking the boards...... I should be hearing any day as to when I can schedule an exam.

I have Kaplan, Saunders, NCLEX made easy and have even signed up on the NCLEX review site........

I don't remember feeling like this when I took my LPN boards and only had one review book.... and I passed the first time.

Here's my problem.... I think I'm S--king on the review questions!!

I'm either in the high 70's or low 80's......I was a B student in school.

I'm sooo afraid of failing boards..... I think if I end up answering more than 75 questions... I'll faint.

I've been having nightmares about this whole thing.

Help... I need some reassurance and some stats......

Thanks......

Thanks for posting. :) Let us know how it goes. Are you in a state where you will get unofficial results pretty quickly?

Good luck and get plenty of rest. Also, eat a good breakfast. :)

I'm doing alot of high 60's on the practice tests now.....

so I'm very upset.

Just like everyone said, relax and take a deep breath... You have plenty of experience under your belt and you have reviewed.. That is about all you can do.. Go to bed early tonight, eat a good meal and get up early enough tomorrow to be able to take your time.

Good Luck and I wish you well.. Let us know how it goes...

I don't understan your system. I wrote my provincials RNA 1991 then RN 1992, for the RN we sat for 2 days 4 hours each we answered over 600 questions we need 350 to pass. I never worried I just told myself if I didn't know it now i never would. I was also one of the lucky one's that got the extra test questions on AIDS something we didn't study too much. I scored 525. Good Luck
