You will never feel 100% ready to sit the exam, would suggest just concentrating on answering questions

You will do fine. You need to relax. Bath and Body works sells oils and candles that will help you to relax. I really recommend it. It really helps me to destress. You sound like you are prepared. How many questions have you done so far?

I used the NCLEX Review 3500 program, I was averaging in the 60's. Funny thing is, after doing it more, my scores gradually decreased. It got to the point where studying more was a detriment.
I also used an online program that my friend payed for, again, I was in the 60's. He passed while he was in the 60's and I was just slightly lower than him. After that, I just signed up and took it without much more studying and passed.

It's ok to feel nervouse, but I agree with Alise, go do something fun for the day, and then focus on your weak areas after a break. Good luck, you will do fine!!!

Please be aware that any of these programs are not to be shared. Unless your friend ordered it specifically for you, then it should never be shared.
Sharing user names and passwords can get one into quite a bit of trouble with the owner of the site.
Much has already been posted about this, refer to the sticky at the top of this forum. Same holds true for other sites, as it does for Kaplan.

You will never feel all the way ready. Just do lots of practice questions and do your best! Take a big deep breath and trust yourself, try and relax (haha:) Do something fun the day before! Good luck!!!
