How Many Days Did YOU STUDY for NCLEX-RN?

[HeatherGurl84]

My NCLEX-RN exam is in 13 days and I am TERRIFIED! I have been doing some online Kaplan questions and studying the Saunders book and practice questions. I just dont feel like I am studying enough.....How many days did you study and how? I dont want to fail! On the Kaplan practice tests I am averaging 65-70% and I graduated in May.

What should I definitely make sure I study and how long do you think is good enough? Some people have told me they studied for 2 months and some said like a week and they passed.

HELP!

It is not how many days you study but how well you study. Hit and miss probably won't cut it. You need to be realistic in looking at your preparation. If you haven't put the proper effort into it, reschedule for a realistic date, get yourself together, and go at it seriously. Good luck.

That is correct because i took my NCLEX RN test and i tried hit and miss studying and it did not have a good outcome. I have read that you should study for at least 2hours a day with no interruptions. I also plan to take a review before i retake the nclex. Hopefully i will see the initials RN behind my name. Goodluck!!!!
