July 2009 NCLEX Support Group

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I didn't see a July 09 support group thread up, so I thought I'd get it started.

I'm taking the NCLEX-RN July 3rd for the first (and hopefully only) time. I figured I'd get it done before the holiday weekend so I could at least enjoy some of the time off instead of spending the holiday chained to textbooks...as I've done for the last two years.

Good luck to all of us in July!

Goodluck to all! I scheduled to take my exam July 30th.I havent told ANYONE when I am taking my exam though. I was nervous even applying for the exam itself! I have been doing my Kaplan Qbanks and Question Trainers but havent been getting up to the 65% mark and it makes me nervous.:smackingf Hope everyone does well!

I can relate: the times I think I did well on a Qbank test, I learn did not--like last night's 63. And I thought it was the easiest one I had taken to date too! But the times I think I bombed a Qbank test, I score in the 80s. It's very disconcerting.

I will be taking on july 16, keep me in your prayers too guys :) il keep you in my prayers jarlesa and the rest who'l be taking the exam.

Taking mine the 16th as well! I am so frickin nervous but I remind myself daily that I can pass! I made it thru nsg school and many many tests - this will just be the topper and after that, no more stressing! Good luck to u and all those waiting to take it!:heartbeat

I test July 1. I am worried b/c I didn't shell out the big bucks for Kaplan or Hurst. I have done an online thing that my hospital has given me, OLE or something like that, and an online NCLEX 3500 review. I have glanced at Erikson, endocrine, and infection control. I did decently well on the HESI with a 948, and I am hoping the NCLEX is comparable. It is too late for hurst, saunders, and kaplan for me. All I can do now is pray and hope that God hasn't brought me this far to let me fail.

Taking it July 27th. Nervous as heck.

I just scheduled mine for July 30th! I can't wait to get it over with so I can get some sleep at night!!!! Good luck to everyone taking the NCLEX in July!!:lol2:

Taking it July 31st, and very nervous! I took the Praxis 15 years ago for my Social Studies teaching certificate, and wasn't nearly as nervous (didn't even study for it, and passed)--- I don't feel as confident about NCLEX

I'm taking it on Friday...and I'm surprisingly calm about it. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. I guess it's more like a "I want to get this test over with so I can get back to my life" thing.

Taking mine on July 3rd, I am having a nervous breakdown because my practice scores are fluctuating from the high 80's to the low 60's, I am using Kaplan, Saunders and Nclex 3500, I am very discourage right now, any advice?

I take mine July 6th at 4:30...I am so nervous and trying to be as positive as possible....any encouraging thoughts will be SO appreciated!!!! thanks!

Good Luck to all July test takers!!!!!

I am 52 and taking the nclex on july 7th. after the holiday i think i like your idea better but did not have the option. good luck to you.....i am def getting the butterflies. Our school had us do the ATI and rec'd a 99% chance of passing but that is little consolation to me.......so at this time my prayers are with all of us in July.....may we all celebrate the thoughts of having accomplished conquering the mountain of nursing school and survived that momentous feat and like that we shall also accomplish this goal .......good luck to all.......like you i am stressing and doing my best in eating right and exercising an hour a day.....and studying and studying and studying...:bugeyes::heartbeat:yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah::coollook::coollook::coollook::coollook::yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah::paw:

I can relate to this. I feel the same as well. I just want to get this exam over with.

And for those preparing using Kaplan, I'm getting similar scores. I try not to concern myself too much with the scores but ensure I understand the rationales.
