I passed with 75!!

[tiredofstudying]

I got my results this morning (Saturday) from Thursday's test and am now an RN!

How I studied:

Reviewed all chapters of Saunder's and did end of chapter tests.

Did Mosby's online CAT and got 94%-99%

Did tons of the Saunder's CD questions

Did the Kaplan book (didn't take the course) and their CD

How the test went:

Awful. It only took me 35 minutes and it shut off at 75 and I cried. I felt like I missed a million of them and have been a ball of nerves ever since. I'm normally a really good test-taker and this was the worst test I've ever had!

Advice:

Take the earplugs when offered.

Go to bed nice and early and DONT try to cram (it won't help you)

Eat a good breakfast before (by good I mean something with lots of grease and carbs to make your tummy feel ffull)

Don't agonize over questions, you'll talk yourself out of your gut instinct

Good luck to all the test takers and thank God for this board!
