HAWAII NCLEX...OMG!!

Published

Taking the Nclex in a week and completely freaking out!! I am doing Kaplan with scores 52-74%, I already rescheduled my test 3 times and very tempted to reschedule AGAIN... I just feel so "not ready", but then again who ever is?? SOOOO much riding on getting that "good pop-up" I almost feel like I'm going to "blow up" :dead: or "throw up":cry:

im a foreign-grad from the philippines,., just flew back last feb 4,. and from that i started self-reviewing for about 35 days,., never joined any review classes due to financial constraints so i just borrowed review materials from my cousin (saunders 5th ed) and my old kaplan book (2008-2009 ed).. did 8-9 hours a day of review but with more "breaks" in between,, (Facebook, instagram etc)haha,., then do 150-200 items each day,., i was able to finished reading the comprehensive book in two weeks,., then had the rest of the remaining days doing exams from *******.com and kaplan and some scanning too from my old notes in nursing school,., that's it,., don't worry too much, you finished nursing school which means you're all geared up for this exam,., so yeah don't stress out too much now,., btw: during your exam, read carefully each questions and choices, don't be in hurry and one thing don't feel depress whenever you don't stop at 75.. coz for as long as the computer gives you question that means you're still in the game,., and pray!! :) GOD BLESS!

When it comes to NCLEX, it's one of those things where you'll never really feel 100% ready or prepared. You'll never know all the information because there's so much out there! Lol but if you honestly feel in your heart that you've done everything you can to prepare for this exam, then I wouldn't reschedule. Have faith in yourself and know you did the best that you can! I wish you well, and pray that you pass your exam! Hope this helps! :)

I'm taking mine next week in Hawaii too! I don't think we'll ever feel ready for this exam. Are you just using kaplan or are you using other things to study? Your scores seem to reflect that you're ready to go and conquer this exam.
