How do i know if im ready for nclex-rn

[marieove]

Hello!

I'm really scared, nervous, anxious and at this time I'm doubting from myself... I failed the nclex once and I'm re-testing next week.

I've been practicing uworld questions every single day my scores are between 60s and 50s. My predictor test result was 93% with a high chance of passing. I already finished my qbanks from uworld and I'm practicing the incorrect questions but it seems like I forgot everything!!! Also sometimes I know the answer and I change it to the wrong one.

What can I do?

Any suggestions? tips?

Thanks!

There's a few things going for you at this point.

1. You've taken the exam once, you'll feel more comfortable and know what to expect a little more!

2. It sounds like you're doing really with uworld; those are some good scores!

My advice, since you're only a week away:

Don't try to cram in over semesters' worth of class notes and textbooks. Try finding some nclex "cram sheets" online instead.

Some easy review of critical concepts is great, but don't exhaust your mind. It's easy to forget to rest and prepare yourself for optimum mental performance.

Good luck!

Like the other poster said, try not to cram too much. You know more than you think you know. Try to take deep breaths and relax because nerves can actually make your mind go blank and forget things! Your U-World scores are great. Don't overthink and try to not change your answers once you pick one! Usually the one your gut picks is the right one. Good luck!! :)

I'm in the same position but 3 days away. My uworld predictor was borderline. I just haven't been in such great spirits because that was the same thing it told me the first time when i took the nclex the first time and didn't pass.
