Nclex Freak Out

Published

Specializes in NCA, Graduate Nurse.

Hello,

I m scheduled to take my test March 17th...for the fourth time. I have studied the most I have ever studied and actually feel better about this one than ever, except for this week. For some reason I am starting to freak myself out. I just want this over as does everyone Im sure that has not taken this exam yet. I have studied Kaplans and Linda Lacharity. My scores in that book have been 60's to 90's and I have answered every question in Kaplans review. My test 7 was a 61% and my qbank is averaging 62%. I am just reviewing my rationales for my tests and Im continuing to answer qbanks even if I remember the answer. My scores second time around with qbanks are 80's. Theres some questions I remember and most of them I dont. Therse so many questions that its easy to forget what they are. I know I am doing everything I am suppose to be doing, but Im just freaking myself out. Does anyone have any advice or words of encouragement for me. That would be so greatly appreciated and once I pass I will be happy to help any of you! Thanks again!:eek:

Hi Megan,

You sound like every other person who takes the NCLEX...I would recommend looking at my post "long time lurker, first time poster." Everyone is unique in their studying, so just read it and strengthen your motivation for victory. Also, the prayers in the post are phenomenal. Please don't toss them aside. All the best for your LAST NCLEX test.

Thank you..I have read your post....love it. I will be printing that out and reading that in my car before I go in. Congrats on passing! I couldnt imagine getting 18 SATA questions. GOOD LORD! Thats a lot, where the easy ones that you knew?

Maybe you should work on relaxation techniques.

Hi Megan,

Upon reading your post, I felt like I wasnt alone. We have the same story. Just imagine that, I have to restart reviewing again. I failed but quickly stood up to start the ball rolling.I just received my results the other day,so i wont waste time and start reviewing again! So dont yah lose hope,my dear. :)

Oh I know you will pass, if you scored 80 on the qbank you're good. They say you need to get a 60 or above to have a good chance of passing your Nclex. You should calm down, relax, keep faith, and pray. God bless you!
