NCLEX anxiety

Published

Does anyone else get anxious prior to taking a test? Any recommendations on how to reduce anxiety?

What do you use to study for the NCLEX exam?

and.....ditto what I just said. Maybe all these threads can be combined into one?

kyankee, have you graduated from a nursing program yet?

I used the NCLEX-PN mastery app, the Saunders book, and my schools virtual ATI review that was provided. I passed with the minimum number of questions. The best advice I got about NCLEX was that the exam is testing minimum safe ability. You learn more than the minimum in school. You went to school, whether it be for ADN RN, BSN RN, LVN/PN, you spent a lot of time in school preparing for this, so you can pass it. That and something like 85% of first time testers pass, so the odds are in your favor. Be confident in what you've learned.
