Thanks.....i needed to hear this. You are a blessing.

Im doing Kaplan online...i test the middle of april. Been doing the class room questions & some of the content video.

Will try to watch more of the content video

Congrats!! How long did you study Kaplan?

Congrats..March has been a great month ans Hoping April will be just as much :)

Same here @diana2520. Was thinking the same thing.....Can wait for April to get here. When do you test?

congrats!

thx! I studied 5 weeks, couldv'e been less but at 1st i only did 50 questions a day and a few videos. by the last 7 days i had already saw most of the videos that i wanted to and i did 150 questions p/day and i did it on Tutor mode. what ever i didnt' know i took notes on in Word Doc, then I'd print them out every few days and go over it again. the day of the test I read my notes again before I left the house. I had about 30 pages of notes, but it was easy to read cuz i had highlighted stuff and plus i am the one who typed it, so it was a fast re-read :)

the notes really STUCK in my head since i had typed them, it help me to remember it :)

I think it would have been fine if I'd had about 3 weeks, but you know how that goes, lol.

Someone wrote me a private message and asked for my notes, I don't have enough posts to answer you, I deleted allll the crap on my computer already and believe me, you will remember it better if you do it yourself :) good luck to everyone!

hi

Can u plz help me. I did 99% qbank questions already and I also did kaplan trainer questions. I did not read the book. I watched the videos little bit. I am going to take the exam this month. What else should I do at this time. I am so scared. I also did the classroom anywhere with kaplan.

know your med catagories. like heart meds: beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, diuretics,

positive inotrope is what?

know what they mostly end in, like LOL, PINE etc,

and what to know regarding electrolytes for those meds, like, if you are taking a certain kind of diuretic SuchandSuch, which electrolyte for THAT MED is most important that you u watch- like pt's sodium, calcium, or potassium?

remember that meds which make u loose water or change your blood volume etc make you dizzy=know that.

know about meds that YOU give, that could hurt someone, heart meds, parkinsons, antipsych, digoxin, diuretics.

type up the bare minimun on those, print it and read it several times. meds are a large part of the nclex

I PERSONALLY search google, for top ten heart meds, top ten diuretics, top ten antipsychotics etc etc, THEN i read about them in my drug guide and typed up one line on each.

how did the rest of you do on your nclex, did you pass yet? i hope :)

Thanks sarah

For ur advice and I will definetely work on the meds. I think in kaplan LOD pharm really helps also. Sarah did u get any math problems because i hate math.

hi Jazmin27, i think u r on track and must relax your nerves. you will be fine. some times just try to remember the content off head or rewrite a summary of what you have studied for the day before you sleep. sleep settles memory, you will be fine ok? NCLEX is nothing but an exam, u have the ability to conquer it and you will. have the best, SHALOM!!!
