I just passed my NCLEX on 3/31 :D For me, it was a critical thinking exam. Knowing lab values, PRIORITY (can't stress that enough) and disease processes helped a lot. There aren't any obvious answers, you have to think. If you have a study book Like Saunder's "Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-PN" it helps to organize your study time. Good Luck!

IDK I am graduating in June as well, I've met a number of former grads from my program though and they all say that school exams are way harder than the NCLEX and not to sweat it so I'm not going to, at this point I have way too much to do for school still anyway. How is the pass rate for your program? that's probably a good indicator of how hard you'll need to study.
