Help! I Take The Nclex In 6 Days And I Dont Know What To Study!!!

Published

the week i took my exit exam for school i was totally on top of my game. i knew what to study... i crammed 8-10 hours a day.

now...

ive lost total motivation and have no idea WHAT TO STUDY!!

any advice?

im freaking out... i dont know what to look at. i must know SOMETHING, because i graduated... but i have that underlying feeling of not knowing anything!!

UGGGGH! help!!! please :)

thank yoooou.

Your post, especially the title, indicates to me that you are unprepared. I doubt that you could properly prepare in six days. I suggest that you reschedule your appointment for the NCLEX and give yourself what you know to be a reasonable amount of time to get ready. Then, take the Saunders book, start at the beginning, and go through it as if your test success depended on it. Good luck.

Yes I agree with that. you have to be ready and prepare at your best for this exam....Goodluck and godbless!:D

ive been using saunders for a few months now and i do the CD that comes with it, rather than reading through the book... but i feel like the saunders questions are too easy. and after a while you start to memorize the answers..

im just scared!!! all of my friends who have taken it already said it was the hardest test...and its impossible to prepare for it because its not "knowledge based".

im freaking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dont know what to do.

well, if you have been reviewing and you are able to answer them confidently then i presume you are ready. You just have to have a positive attitude towards the exam, just pray and be confident that you will pass. if you think you have prepared enough then go for it!:wink2:

Only you know if you are ready or need to reschedule. If you have been studying and feel you can't absorb anymore info or can't concentrate, prehaps a break is in order. ( does not need to be a long break, a day, a couple of hours, etc. ) You can always change the pace by incorporating new ways to study too. Such as reading a different reveiw book, the random facts sticky, studying with a friend, flash cards, or whatever you choose. Anyways, best of luck whichever way you decide.

thanks everyone! so i rescheduled my date from november 19th to the 29th and i feel better about this date. i am just so nervous. its basically a shot in the dark as to what your going to get and thats giving me terrible anxiety. thank you again!
