Best of luck my dear. I am in similar situation and i have two more weeks until my exam day (at least as of this day.. if my anxiety level shoots up then might consider rescheduling lol). Stay positive and keep the faith, i believe God will help us as long as we do our best. I have been preparing for 2 months now and I honestly feel that i still need to do a lot of studying. I am a foreign grad as well and been out of college for a year now. I am really, really anxious like when Im doing some drills, my exam date just suddenly pops in my head and takes away my concentration. But you know what keeps me going? its the pressure I get from my family and friends. I know its suppose to be a negative thing right? But I have to be optimistic and see the brighter side of it-- because people believe that you can accomplish a certain task means something-- they know your capabilities and you can do it. so might as well prove them right. Right? (Geeez i cant believe im saying all this. soo much of being positive eh? ) Being positive is the least I can do to prevent myself from being too anxious. So gear up and stay focus. Pray and pray. Offer that day to the Lord and He shall bless you. May God bless us all :)

Yes, it is true--we all got to have something in ourselves to keep us going no matter how negative and unexpected surrounds us. Eversince i had failed twice in this NCLEX-RN exam - i felt like nobody anymore...my husband do not see me as if his work and tv are more important -seems as if failing makes me a real failure not only in the exam but in my whole being as well and do not appreciate when I prepare foods for him or is not even happy to see me. That makes me feel so low as well. He is a licensed RN now , failed once and passed the second time. He thinks failing lots of times is too much. Help me please...what do I need to study to pass this exam? Please share with me how can I pass this soon...

Try to do as many practice questions as you can. Have a basic knowledge of the s/s of the different diseases, meds, infection control, etc. Practice doing priority questions and SATA. I think you already have idea about the real NCLEX questions are. As for me, it's not really that hard but it's not easy too. Make a good educated guess if you encounter unfamiliar topic, trust your instinct coz it's always the right one even if there are other good choices. Lastly, have faith in yourself and trust God to lead and guide you through. GOd bless and I hope and pray you gonna make it on next attempt.
