NCLEX in 5 days

Published

Hi all!

I am so extremely nervous to test in 5 days. I am doing my best to do questions to keep my exposure high until then and plan on taking the day before off. The morning of I think I will just do a few questions to get my brain in the zone.

I am so nervous though and I was wondering if you all have some tips to stay calm during NCLEX. I am afraid that when I get in there I will start second guessing myself or that I will start thinking differently from all the anxiety.

I hope I am well prepared. I have done pretty much all of kaplan and got a 68% on my readiness 2 days ago. I have also done Hurst, a little bit of NCLEX Mastery and I am now just doing Uworld until I test (most recent score on there was a 60 but mostly focusing on reading the rationales)

Thanks all for your advice and encouragement!

Sounds like your doing great as far as your scores, I'm sure you'll pass! Just relax and pray pray pray!! When you're taking the test remember to breath and don't freak yourself out. When I took it, every 20 questions I took I paused and took 3 deep breaths and closed my eyes for 10 seconds. At 50 questions I took about 15 seconds to stretch a little (in my chair) and rest my eyes again. Take a break if you need to and go out of the room, get food, go to the bathrooms, whatever you feel you need to keep your nerves down. You're gonna do great!

Your scores are good! Well within the passing limits.

In order for me to remain calm

During the NCLEX, I exercised the day before and the morning of.

Before the test and at around 65 questions, I took a break to center myself.

I arrived early so that I could have even more time to center myself and be in a good mood.
