I totally agree with the others. Don't worry about the NCLEX right now. Get through school first. I took the NCLEX yesterday, and I am not here to worry anyone, but that was the hardest test I have ever taken. I graduated with honors from nursing school, passed all of the HESI and Forcast exams given in school, but have no clue how I did yesterday. Out of 75 questions, I know I got 1 right. At the end of our school year, we had a weeks review of NCLEX from MedsPub, they gave us a review book and 3000 questions to practice with. I did those 3000 questions, Kaplan online review questions (over 1000), Saunders questions (1000), and studied the review book before taking the test. I felt to prepared when I went to take the test, but I just felt stupid when I left! I can't even tell my friends how to prepare for this. I am praying that I passed, but at this point it could go either way.
So, not trying to worry you, but worry about graduating before stressing about this test. Once your out, then start studying. All I can say is priority, priority, priority. That was most of my questions. Good luck to you!

WOO HOO!! CONGRATS!! relax and then study the NCLEX prep books...but the fact that you passed HESI is a huge indication that you are likely processing the types of questions on the NCLEX...very exciting!!:up:
