NCLEX on 1/30 very scared!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I have read many posts and my concerns are not different from others except that I dont have a 4.0 GPA, I had a 3.2. And I didnt pass Mosbys CAT-RN with a 99%, I got an 82% probability of passing the NCLEX. I also have been averaging between 60 - 70% on my Kaplan question trainer and Q-bank. I didnt struggle through nursing school but now my confidence level is very low and it seems that many of the people posting are very bright when it comes to their practice tests. Is there anyone that is just average that passed the NCLEX? I am just freaked out, everything is getting shut off in my house one by one, I have two sons and borrowing money from every direction to buy groceries, I am running out of resources and passing this test is my chance to survive. If I dont pass I dont know what will happen to my family so the pressure is overwhelming me. I study daily and take between 100 - 250 questions a day. I almost feel burnt out on questions already. When I took the Mosby CAT today and it came up 82% I was very bummed especially since one person wrote they got 99%. Well reading all the posts does encourage me and I am so happy for all the people that have passed. Pray for me too...........................

My best wishes to you guys. I just got a relief from this NCLEX today.

Hi Serenity, I'm also testing on Jan. 30th at 0800 but I'm taking the PN exam. Which means we have about a week and a half. I am so ready to get this over. What I do to help control my nerves is to take three deep breaths and ask GOD for strength, he got me through nursing school and all those final exams. This is just another step we have to take on our way. I wish there was another way that we can prove that we can be good nurses besides testing. Some people are better at hands-on stuff than sitting down taking a test :icon_roll. Sometimes I feel like I'm ready then other times I feel like I need more time. But I know we will do this. In Jesus Name.

First of all I would like to say that after reading your message I felt your every word and I can relate totally but one thing to remember is that God never fails and he knows the desires of your heart. I will pray for you and your family and in Jesus name you will pass so :balloons::balloons:Congratulations ahead :balloons:

I feel your pain. I am taking mine Feb 6th and am SCARED TO DEATH too!!!! Half of me thinks I need more time, but half of me just wants to go ahead and get it over with. I took an NCLEX review course, did great on the HESI and I usually do 80-100 questions a day, getting about 80%+ correct so I am hoping that I am well enough prepared, but I have sooo many doubts!!!

I have to say I get a laugh when I read "God never fails." He doesn't have to take the NCLEX!

Ok, however it turns out it was meant to be, no matter who or what you believe in, and I don't mean to rattle the sensitive Christian's out there. I have faith in the universe, God, whatever, and I know it will turn out the way it needs to turn out for me, pass or fail. I'm gonna do my best, however, and I won't go down easy.

Best of luck to you. Relax as well as you can. It will turn out how it turns out.

p.s. easy on the tuna, all that mercury can't be good for your brain!
