Have done all I can

[Nagmamahal, RN]

I have done all I can in studying for nclex. I took kaplan NCLEX-RN complete a week after graduation. After that I finished all my question trainers except for QT7 and finished Qbank. I also watched ALL of the content videos. All of them. I made sure that I did practice questions everyday (150-200) sometimes even up to 350. I also read the saunders book and have read more than half of it. Can't finish it since my test will be on July 3rd. (Is this bad?)

I did my practice questions from saunders book and cd, kaplan, and from the nclexrn3500 website. Today, I did the comprehensive test found in the very back of the saunders book and scored 204/265. I think I did well but I really believe that saunders questions are way easier than kaplan questions.

I am trying to finish the saunders book just to refresh my content but it's just so hard. All I could think of right now is I just want to finish the test. (should I try to finish saunders book anyway???)

Tomorrow, I am going to finish the QT 7. And the day after that, I am just planning to look over my notes for 30 minutes and that is it! I am sick of studying lol. My left eye is twitching, my back is killing me, and I seriously think I am at risk for developing DVT.

Ok I'm done venting. :p

omg, I was just thinking yesterday that I had a DVT from sitting down soo long at the computer! I'm glad I'm not the only crazy one! :dzed:

Best of luck to you on the 3rd. It sounds like you're kicking major butt in your questions!! Keep up the good work and hang in there, it's almost over!!

I am taking my NCLEX on July 3rd also, in Virginia. I took the online Kaplan review course-listened to the lectures and followed along in the study book at the same time. I have done good enough on the QT tests. I need to do QT 7 and the readiness test tomorrow. I hope I have enough time!!!

Best of luck to you. Everyone keeps telling me "You'll be fine." I hope I don't let them down!:loveya:

It's July 2nd in minutes and for all you July 3rd test takers it's time to rest! If you're at a hotel a swim or the hot tub is good ,avoid alcohol until after the test and get a good nights sleep! You won't retain new info at this stressful time, just have faith in the hard work you've put in and Good Luck!

2 years ago, I think I made the exact same post as you just did! LOL

You have done as much as you can, you have jackhammered every single bit of knowledge into your brain that you possibly can.

Sit back.

Take a really deep breath.

Let it out, now take another one.

Let it out too.

You're gonna be fine. . . .

*hugs*

Hello everyone. It's good to be back here. Well I found out yesterday that I passed! I am an RN yay! I had 75 questions, 19 SATA, a few medicines that most of whom I don't recognize, and 2 math calculations that I thought were easy. I had lots of priority questions, client teaching, and infection control. Congratulations to all those who have passed and for those who are yet to take the nclex, I highly recommend KAPLAN. Please feel free to ask me questions. Thanks.
