Anyone feel overwhelmed by the NCLEX like me? Exam coming soon and I am so stressed out. Of late, it becoming worst. Practicing Questions make me angry and tired, because I can't believe I am doing this again. I feel like I am loosing my love for nursing. The last time I did the NCLEX and failed, I was so disappointed. I spent so much money on review programs etc. Also, I studied so hard. Now, it seems that I am not excited to study and go after my dreams of getting my RN License. With that being said, I never felt like this before. Anyone else feels that way?
Good luck to everyone testing this week! I am taking mine on Saturday.. stressed is a complete understatement. I took HURST and am currently reviewing the videos for the 3rd time. Im concerned that I don't know it all "without doubt or hesitation" like Aunt Marlene says.. Praying I know enough to pass !!!
Just remember Philippians 4:13. God is good and he gives favor to one who deserves it. I just want to encourage you, I know He's seen your handwork. Give plenty enough time to thank Him for bringing you here and giving you a degree. No matter how big the challenge is. A set of 265 question will not define you as a person. I strongly believe you can do it, before you take the exam, imagine God is leading you to the right answers. Keep calm and believe. God bless you both!!! Just believe!
I understand how you feel.
I still have a few more weeks, but as the big day gets closer, I'm getting more and more nervous. I get more and more annoyed with myself when I can't remember something... and I'm so worried that I'm not preparing correctly or enough.
It's definitely rough... hang in there!
Hi Everyone, today I went to the library and I got five books. Lippincott's NCLEX-RN Alternate-Format Questions 4th edition. This book is a God send. I need to master the alternate formats questions especially the SATA. This books I intend to complete before my big day. I also got Kaplan 2013-2014 Strategies, Practice & Review, Lippincott's Q& A, NCLEX-RN Q& A made Incredible Easy & Saunders Q & A for the NCLEX-RN. These books I will sceme through and practice the questions on the CD. I am enjoying studying the Alternate formats questions from Lippincott's book, all about the 7 new format we may see on the NCLEX. Happy Studying Everyone. Hugs & Prayers.
Ssk5, it is OK to cry. You are releasing your fears. Let it all out now. But, tomorrow you go in there, calm, cool and stay collective not forgetting to pray. Read what GrnTea said about the NCLEX. She gave some good pointers and they are all true. She knows what she is talking about. You will be in my taught and prayers all day. Much love.

Hadassah16, you are not alone. it's overwhelming indeed and that's how i feel right now too since i am on pharmacology and i just hate it so much but i cannot afford to fail anymore and i don't want to give up because if i do, i know i will regret it for the rest of my life having come this close to becoming a USRN and i will just throw everything like it's not a big deal. This test has been giving me nightmares also, almost every night i feel guilty to go sleep for 8 hours, i will wake up at 3 or 4 am from a dream that my saunders book was actually alive and yelling at me to get up and read it again. Yeah...that bad and there are days when i feel like i am just neglecting myself, i forget to eat, drink, comb my hair etc... i feel you and you are not alone but this too shall end and it will be soon with a positive result
