My goal till next 3 weeks to finish Trainers from 1-7 for Kaplan, Hurst Questions my friend shared with me, more Qtrainers from Kaplan and PDA book.
I will be dividing my day from starting with Kaplan Questions.. then go over them review content if I need to go thru them.. I already finished reviewing all content for Hurst multiple times. I will also do PDA 2 chapters for next 3 weeks.
I will be posting my scores for Kaplan Trainers! My Qtrainers averagle 62% I did about 60% of the Questions..
Please I need motivation I am nervous taking NCLEX RN second attempt in 3 weeks exactly!!
blue82 don't overwhelm yourself! I divide my day between doing Kaplan Q trainers, 1 to 2 chapters from PDA then I will be reviewing my friend Hurst questions too!! I am exhausted between work & studying! we can do it!
I had one of Joans workshops today. She advised 1 month prior to testing (only applies to multi testers) pack up all study books and only do questions until your test. Do two 90minute sessions a day. Eat well, exercise at least 30 minutes a day, get enough sleep. Visualize yourself as a RN. Own it. Believe it. Speak it and the universe will help it manifest. (Sounds good but I trust on God and prayer more than universe). My new motto is HAVE FAITH NOT FEAR. It is just a test and we will pass it.
Yes that is right. Two 90minute sessions per day including rationales. It was difficult not to reach for a book today but I did it. I don't know if I will have enough online q' s to last until I test next month.
dbrenda1510 I am going to do the HELP session with Joan Workshop later today I signed up for SATA session and I will be doing strategy session both of them too! Not sure if I need to advance my test one week! I will see after the session if I need keep my test date or advance it for a week! I usually take one Trainer exam then I go over my rationals yesterday my brain couldn't take it after taking Trainer exam 4 I went shopping then eat out!
I believe we need to rest our mind at times! Good luck everyone!
I did not do the HELP session but I did the other 3. She has also started a group for those of us who have been unsuccessful on previous tests. It's just started so we will see how it goes. If you are interested just email Joan and ask her about it. I admire you for sticking to a study plan. Some days I just can't make myself study very long at all. I think I am very close to burnout. That is one reason Joan recommends just doing questions for the last month before retesting. I wish I had Kaplan to do the q trainer exams but I do have several books online that I am using instead. Stay in-touch.
dbrenda1510 The HELP she talked about going to NCBSN website to look at the categories of the exam to make sure we study and we cover everything! She also mentioned to be doing online exams because since the exam online and she provided us about free site for questions http://www.*******.com/home/exams/nclex-exam! I just registered for WorkShop strategy 1 and 2 I will be doing SATA on the 19 too! I will update you if I learn anything to help you guys :) Trust me at times I get overwhelmed my friend who is studying for MD board been pushing me and I am thankful for him! keep telling yourself that this is last time you will take exam then you rest Good luck and stay in touch!
blue82 glad you found it! please keep me posted! Let's share everything we learn to help each other succeed in our next attempt! She is really great at what she is doing! The classes are cheaper price compare to others review and I am happy to learn more strategies because it build my confidence!
