Hi there,
I'm new here and just wanted to share my current status...I will be taking the boards this Sat at 12 noon, I'm really anxious and nervous..I didn't tell anyone, even my family doesn't know when i will taking the boards. I've been reviewing since Jan 2010, I'm using Hurst review, Kaplan q&a bank, and ncsbn q&a bank as well. I just love the Hurst Review bec it helped me understand the core content..The lectures are not boring bec Marlene and her staff make the lecture fun and interesting. I have learned a plenty from Hurst review. I also do at least 100 questions a day and study the rationales. I hope and pray I will make it. Any word of encouragement or advise anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I just taking the test and I was so scared in the beginning but finally calm ddown after a few questions. I had a lot of sata and drugs I haven't heard of..priority, delegation and management questions. I only had 2 drug calculations. The computer stopped at 86.. I hope for good results.

mval637 don't be jealous you too will soon be a nurse. Relax too much pressure can cause you to make careless mistakes. I took a review course called Ilana Pfifferling Nurse Review it was awesome. Other than that I mainly did review questions. Once you study whatever source you choose, I really think the more questions you practice the better you will do. Not only are you practicing the questions like on the test, but you are learning as well. Read all the rationales if you get the answers wrong. However, I also believe sometimes you need to relax and not overload your brain. I think I studied so much and still felt it wasn't enough. You know what you know and its enough. Don't drive yourself crazy because like most people will tell you they still didn't think they did well even with all of that studing. I have faith you should too. You WILL DO IT. PASS YOUR NCLEX EXAM!!!!!!
