How many felt totally unprepared when they took the NCLEX, and then passed?

Published

I just feel like the past two years of nursing school have been a blur and I haven't retained anything!! I'm sure it's nerves, but I just can't seem to focus. I've been studying every day, and doing practice questions. I know I really need to review meds (not my strongpoint) and also go over electrolyte balances etc. and lab values. It's the numbers and the drugs I can't seem to remember. I think I have patho down fairly well, so I can work through most problems, but if I get a drug question...it's not going to be pretty.

Ugghhh, I know everyone says after they take this test that there's no way to really prepare for it, but I'd like to go in feeling confident. I haven't even told the people I work with when I'm taking the test, just in case I fail.

Thanks for listening (reading) to my ramble...
