2nd try.. more than one year... it an on and off study to me but when my second authorization is about to expired, i studied in 4 weeks... talk to everyone in the house not to expect anything from me cause am studying.... do Q&A using Sunders, ATI, nclex review question, youtube-ed4nurses...and dont forget to pray for guidance.

read allnurses everyday to motivate myself. Passed it the second time.

Still in school mode, I didn't put very much hard effort into it and managed to pass. I have to agree with the advice not to delay too long after school.

5weeks,,,did about 100 to 150 questions every day,,,but some days just focussed on theory,,,like 2 weeks,,,,so 2 weeks theory +3weeks questions,,,and everyday atleast half an hour on allnurses random fact throwing,,,it really helped me,,,,

Hi everyone! thanks for all the response.. i only have 8 weeks left before my exam date.. and today is actually just the 2nd day of my review. I dont know if 8 weeks is enough for me to be prepared for the exam, but i feel encouraged by those of u who had done their review within a shorter time than my 8 weeks.. i hope i could make it.. geez, i hate this feeling..
