I graduated from the University of Puerto Rico in 2011 with a BSN, Yep! a whole year and next month I will finally take the NCLEX, it's been a rough journey applying for liscensure in Tx. It was Rough because I am considered an international applicant. Well, that took me a year and in August I got my ATT I was happy and so excited when that email arrived, but shortly after I was terrified that the ATT mean NCLEX! Well to be honest I've studied here and there but it wasn't a full blown study session(so to me it doesn't count like studying),a few questions here, and there & Read some chapters. Now it's been a year since I've been in a health care environment, I feel like I've forgotten all that I learned in nursin school. So naturally I'm panicking. When I read the practice questions, I panic and answer them wrong, when I read the rationale I'm like "DUH! I knew that, why didn't you read more carefully!?"
Anyways, here I am exactly one month and a day until I take this behemoth of a test and I need advice, words of encouragement, anything that will alleviate and help towards passing the test.
study material:
NCLEX Exam and QB by Linda Stanford (app)
NCSBN flash cards
NCLEX REVIEW APP(can't find who made it...maybe not so reliable)
Mosby's RNtertainment: An NCLEX® Review Board Game
Felt i haven't studied enough! I can't move my exam date and my head is going nowhere!? Head? Where are you? Whew examon tuesday! Oooooowww my God ... Pls help me! Help all of Us...
hello everyone!goodluck to all.Focus read each question carefully.I'm on same boat getting nervous my exam date is on Nov.keep on practicing read rationales.Im using Lippincott Q&A,Exam cram,NCSBN review,and Im on La Charity practice exercise,i found out almost SATA,the chapters & case study exercises is similar to NCLEX and Don't forget to Pray.It takes a lot of courage to be effective and safe nurse..
Citylight and Tiffany I'm in the same boat. We can do this ladies, let us give it our best try and practice 300 questions daily and review as much as we can.
Man, I feel like a slacker. 300 questions? I can barely do 50. -__-
Does it help that I have been getting scores on Kaplan over 65%? Maybe I'm ready and don't know it. IDK. I'm lazy and tired of "studying".
Feel like I've been slacking too I've been doing 50 to 69 as well. I def need to try doing 300 daily, so I won't get overwhelmed with 275, that's if of course the test stops at 75.
