Heya, JAXGRL,

next weds-D-Day for us..

what day are you calling it quits on the studying. for me, Sunday night, will be my last "nursing" day. I want monday and tues off. (im going to have the wife hide all my notes and books ) so i dont get tempted.

----what time and where are you testing at ?

I will be at Pearson View Fresno, CA at 0800 am.

its weird, the testing office there is down a LOOOOOOONG narrow corridor (its like 50 feet long and about 4 feet wide)

I always laugh when i walk down it saying to myself (from those of you who have seen the GREEN MILE with TOM HANKS)

I say "my name, jon coffie---walking the mile, walkin the mile"

:)

Hello

Im new to this...but like most of you I will be taking my NCLEX for the second time on May 7. I know we are all going to do fine and pass this time. We just have to be confident in ourselves and speak it into existence!

Hello fellow May test takers. im taking mine this Monday the 5th at 0800 via Westlake Village out here in Los Angeles. Im a first time test taker and have completed all my Kaplan studies. I don't think you ever truly feel ready to take this test but at this point i'd just like to get it over with and try my best.

my prayers are with all of you. good luck!

Say Hello to Fresno Pearson. I took my first test in that office.

God Bless us all!

hello everyone i'm taking nclex rn in june, i am also a repeating the exam. i was trained outside the US also. i'm dying to pass, presently i need some advice as to which online course to try. i am using the saunder's cd and kaplan book, i heard most of the test is now on delegation and prioritization, maybe we can get started with this support group.

please do not study only kaplan book. it is not enough! they do not include a lot of information. for example, kaplan book does not say a lot about contact precautions, which is very important on nclex. and that is just one example. saunders book is much better. kaplan q-bank is helpful though.

well guys, i m back, i went into the exams 30min earlier, started 15min earlier with all the confidence i could have, by the time i passed number 75, i tell you, anxiety set in, i took my only break @ number 85 cos my head was so heavy on me, i tell you the best experience is for the system to shut off @75 but mine did not.

i came back, continued till around 98 and i cant know @ what number maybe 100 or so it went blank, and i was like maybe an error cos i ready to go the way down but i was not praying for 265 anyway, and so i shut off, and i wasnt sure of myself if i got the last one wrong or right, all i know is i counted 16 weird SATA a lot of meds out of the blues and a little of evrything.

unfortunately, med is my weakest point and i ever say a way out till i wrote the test, infact some i just ticked anything, u can imagine when the 4 options are meds and u dont know what to pick cos you dont even know the meds, funny.

i was already in tears @number 90, cos this is my 2nd time.

MaleNursesRock · May 1, 2008

..im pulling for you. yeah meds is my weak point too. 16 SATA questions. im sure you did fine. (im really trying to quell down my own anxiety for next weds--3rd times the charm--i hope)

..keep us posted

I know I can't believe we test on Tuesday! time flies. I am a nervous wreck. I only used Saunder's been scoring 60s'-70's on the CD tests. I just pray that we all pass. :bowingpur

if all threaders could be kind enough to pm me their testing dates, id really appreciate it... :)
btw, 9 days left for me....and ill be taking the test again....hopefully ill be able to make it this time...im not yet done studying and i bought the exam cram and the saunders flash cards over the weekend. i want to pass. i have to pass. i need to pass.....and yet over the past 3 days i have not been studying. every time i think of studying the motivation just slips away. i have been like this with my past exams.....the week before i slack.....i know i should change it....my kaplans about to expire tomorrow and im not even done with the qbank. argh....
i think i need to resched my test...and yet....here i am slacking....will rescheduling my test get myself out of my slackin mood....i dont think so. itll make me feel more relaxed if i resched it. i dunno......oblivion.....
