Count me in - I'm taking mine on the 15th (for the last time).
i'll be taking my FIRST NCLEX RN Exam on May 22nd at 2PM. I am studying for a month now. Im scared and nervous about this but i know everybody does. I am not that confident since i get low scores on Question trainers. But i do believe the Big Guy up there will help me go through this. Godbless to all who will take the exam.
I would like to wish everyone the Best of Luck as you sit for the NCLEX exam. Just take your time with each question and pretend that you have x amount of patients to see and you will see them one by one and YOU are the only one that could help these patients. This is just another way to look at this exam, it helps to change your original way of thinking. If anybody needs to vent, I am a PM away, feel free. I will be continuing to pray for each and every one of you. Go in take 5 huge DEEP BREATHS, this helps to slow your heart rate and clear your thinking so you can think. Take your breaks, you DO NOT have to wait until the computer asks you. If prayer helps you go ahead and say one out loud, it DOES NOT matter if anyone can hear you. Good Luck To All of you!:redpinkhe
Cali_grl that's great. How did you study?My test date is next week and I'm so nervous!!!!!!
The first time I took it, I studied for 2 months for 5 - 6hrs a day, I didn't work, didn't party, I don't have kids...I just STUDIED. I took Kaplan, attended all the classes, did all the Question Trainers and finished the entire QBank and read the rationales for the questions I got wrong and also the ones I got correct. I also read Saunders 4th edition.
This time around I only studied for 3 weeks for about 1 - 2hrs a day. I only did about 40 NCSBN Learning Extension questions a day. I did not read any review material but I did look over lab values a few times.
Anyway, I walked in there yesterday knowing I will pass and I walked out KNOWING that I DID PASS. Anyway, the first time I took it I did the "pearsonvue trick" and it let me re-register to take the exam again. This time it is not letting me re-register, so that's a very good sign :)

I received my ATT on the 23 and took my test on the 29th. I received quick results this morning. I wanted to get all over with as quick as possible.
I come from a school that is not even fully accrediated because our pass rates are not great. It was not as bad as people make it sound. Do not get me wrong; You probably should be studying until a day or 2 before the exam.
Nick Knacks can be a bunch of things. Where I come from we used it for trinkets and small toys (ex: little figurines).
