I guess I need to vent. I just dont know at this point if I am even ready or not. I feel like I will never be actually ready. Ive been very lucky with the job offers but passing the nclex has been my biggest challenge.
I graduated in may 2015. I took boards for the first time in aug 2015. used kaplan and for 265 questions. I was distracted though because I had SOOO much going on. So I knew the reason.
2nd time, there not many distractions around me, I retook kaplan and went for it again. got 265 questions and almost ran out of time! and didnt pass.
this is my third time, I dont like kaplan. I did 1100 questions for ncbsn, my scores were sight low but I went over rationales. I did 150 questions per day and at times 200. now I am trying uworld too, my over all average performance is 54% and still going at it. I did near about 1000 questions from uworld starting December (i think I kinda forgot most of them) but still at this moment doing 75-150 a day left over from uworld. I JUST DONT KNOW anymore if Im ever going to be ready.
I do have test anxiety, and relaxing day before the exam. I need words of encouragement? I just feel so lost and feel like this has been my struggle since last year, and it has been too long of a stress.......I dont know if I should post pone it. ah...just over it...so much.
aww thank you!!!! goood luckkkk!!!! you got this!! the best thing I ever did before nclex was get my nails done, went for a spa/massage in the evening so I could relax!!!! I never done that before. SO try to relax as much as you can, so you can focus
