NCLEX in less than 48 hours!! =O

Published

Ahhhh freaking out, my nclex is in 2 days (march 7, @2pm). I just completed my last question trainer for the kaplan course (#7) with 63.40.. and ive completed about 80% of qbank with a 62% average and half of the lacharity book. Ive been spending the majority of my time doing questions and reviewing the rationales.. but I am always beating myself up for not studying solely content; but i can't seem to focus on just reading content! Any last minute suggestions on how to calm these pre-nclex nerves?!

Prayer always works to calm oneself. also hide your nclex books in the closet so they arent staring at you.:)

Do some questions in your weakest subject; mine was the endocrine system. My test was in the afternoon, so I did some questions the morning of the test. After that, I played Star Wars the Old Republic for a few hours on my sith juggernaut. Passed at 75. The test environment was tense. They take 3 palm scans on each hand, an index finger print, and a picture. This does not help if you're trying to maintain your calm. Thankfully, they give you a brief tutorial on how to take the NCLEX at your testing station computer to calm you down somewhat. I asked the positive forces of the universe to aid me.

Also, the PVT worked for me, but I waited until the next evening to check. Remain calm.

GOOD LUCK AND PRAY!

You may want to look over some lab values and infection control pneumonics for airborne, contact and droplet precautions. Try not to stress out too much, eat a good meal before the exam, stay hydrated, packed snacks and drink/cold water/ juice, fruits in case u need a sugar enforcement on a break if u have to go the distance on the NCLEX.
