My review log for NCLEX-RN exam.

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

In one to two months I will be taking my exam, this thread is an online log to track my progress.I figure if I do it on my own, it will be most likely to FAIL. So Im here, taking all the risks. I know its hard to do it on my own, so I need some encouragements from everyone here (if possible).

So far, I gathered all the resources I need:

Books: LaCharity, Saunders, Kaplan and (to purchase) NCSBN online review.

Place; I mostly can focus on a not-too-noisy places, Library is one of my fave.

Lastly, to everyone who will be taking taking there exam this coming May or June,

I wish you all luck! :nurse:

In the end, our strong faith to ourselves and the Divine will make us all reach success!

Cheers! :cheers:

Hi bluegeirdwirl,

How are you? Heres my update on my review: May 5 I did Neuro Nclex4000 75questions I got 80%, May 6 I did Kaplan Qbank #4 150 question so sad I only got 53% :cry:. Today May 7 I have to catch up with my household will try to finish my Neuro Chapter too.

Oh heavenly Father please continue to be with me please give me strength and courage as I continue prepare for this exam. I know Father my future is all on my hand and its up to me but I also know and believe you have a almighty power to change a person's life please sprinkle some more miracles in my life. I love you. Amen..

Hey Marg! Im good thanks. Ive just been so restless today. Im thinking about taking a vacation at work coz its taking a toll on me. I also get low scores on my Kaplan app, they're questions are quite difficult and confusing though. When is ur exam btw?

May 6, 2012 - Sunday

Im still not finish with lesson 3 (ncsbn) which is really bad. Im doing some questions now and will update in a few.

Around July hopefully before my birthday. My birthday is on July 28. a gift to myself hopefully. :)

anyway dont forget to check your email.

Hi bluegeirdwirl ,

I had work so couldn't reply you on time .Actually my date is not fix yet for the exam but i want to give at the end of the june ...i hope i will make it this time !!!

Yeah sure i will try to post my review progress daily .

i would also like to be apart of this log. My plan is to break it down into body systems and follow it up with questions from each section. My mistake the first time was that I didnt master the content, and that is something i plan to do before retesting..

This will be my second time taking this exam.. Im currently using kaplan and hurst, as well as saunders.I also have lacharity as well as several other. .Im determined to pass this time! Today i will be going over the immune system and the integumentary system in saunders, along with 100 questions in each section.

DETERMINATION IS KEY...WE WILL GET IT THIS TIME

Hi mcunanan,

Its so funny that we are thinking alike. My birthday is July 31, and I was also thinking to do it few days before, so I can have a relaxing birthday for the first time in a long time. I wish you good luck, and am joining the crew next week. I will start studying Mon the 14th, as I need to sort out some stuff before I begin with full force.

Hey marinoh!,,

Thanks for the support and the link. I made this thread to motivate me in studying just like everyone else. Its a bit of pressure though as I publicize my review and people are expecting me to pass but the higher the pressure is the more it pushes me to study hard.

I hope we all pass our exams this coming summer either june and july. Feel free to share ur review progress here so u can get moivations and cheers from everybody!! :))

Hello bluegeirdwirl,

You are very welcome!! And were you able to download it.

I am actually going to start studying Mon next week, and I will sure share my review. I am yet to purchase kaplan and NCSBN, but I have Saunders, Nclex review and just ordered for Lacharity. So am starting with those 3, and I will see how it goes.

Okay, guys, I have a request. I have the Kaplan trainers that someone else shared with me, I didn't sign up for Kaplan. I keep hearing about how hard the questions are and how they're confusing. The questions I have, I did about 150 of them and only missed about 10 or so. So, I'm wondering if I have the same questions.

Could someone send me or post a question example from Trainer 7 so that I can compare it to what I have? Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone!

I was in a battle between my jobs and my studying. How are you guys doing?

@mcunanan- im taking my exam next month. Good for u because you have plenty of time to study. I havent check my emails yet but I'll check on it first thing in the morning tomorrow. Thanks!

@june2012- i also work as well, i cant give it up because my boss is leaving next month. I dont have internet at work so i only make posts here if i am lucky to get a signal

@monae2003 - feel free to use this review log.

Wow! 100 question for post test is a lot! Goodluck!

@marinoh - i havent download it in my Mac coz i dont have connection here at work but i will when i get home tomorrow. Its nice to chat with people who's on the same boat as i am. Goodluck!

@crazierthanyou- i dont have kaplan q trainers so i cant help u. But i do have the kaplan app mini q bank on my phone but it only has few questions.
