NCLEX in a few days for the second time

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Hi everyone! I take the NCLEX again next week and I am freaking out. The previous time- I was very close, 265 questions.. Below the passing line in ine subject and near the rest.

I did Kaplan again for questions and did hurst online review which I really felt like helped my weak areas out in content.

Anyways.. Doing alternate question types and PDA too. Last time I know I let my nerves get the best of me and this time I can't second guess myself.

But I still feel unprepared and scared! My scores have gone up and range from low 60s to mid 70s. I feel like I over think the questions, especially priority questions.

Any suggestions would be helpful!!!! I just want this so bad!!!

Specializes in LTC, Agency, HHC.

It's ok....I got the same as you.....near passing in all areas. You can do this.....you WILL do this! Your scores are good....just keep studying! Definitely review priority/delegation. That's been my main focus because that was what I really struggled with.

Don't let your nerves get the best of you, go in thinking positive. Try to find some nclex test taking strategy tips. It can really help you figure out how to narrow down the right choice! Remember with priorities to keep in mind what's normal for the disease the pt has your not necessarily going to see a patient first if their s/s are expected for the disease they have. I was taught that in a review course and it helped me so much with priority questions!
