Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I graduated nursing school August 2014 and gave birth to twins in October 2014. Between then I moved twice (from temporary housing into my permanent house). Needless to say I had no time to study or take the NCLEX. Fast forward to today, 6 months after graduation, and I still haven't taken the exam. I barely even get enough sleep much less have time to study. Feel pressure to take this exam ASAP before I forget any more information. Debating looking for an NCLEX prep study course? I have 3 NCLEX prep books but just want to cram and take this thing and get it over with. Anyone else been in a similar situation? Suggestions? Looking for anything other than "you're totally screwed."

Since you have been out of school for a while a "live" class might be helpful with reviewing content information. After that, it is just answering questions, questions and more questions. Make sure your review why your answers are correct and not just those that you missed. Congratulations on your twins. If you can find the NCLEX flash cards you can always take handful and carry them with you. I did that and whenever I had a few down moments while working, I was able to review questions. I do not have any children but can understand that there is very little down time
