NCLEX...Some insight please

Published

Hello all!!

I am a recent graduate with my BSN and I am preparing to take the NCLEX. I have just received my ATT and temporary license. Tonight was the last night of the KAPLAN review, which I feel did not help very much....what a waste of money:( SO, now what?? I have to do some more content review and then give it a whirl....I am just so scarrreedd to take the NCLEX. Is it really that bad?? I am looking for some input from recent grads

hi and welcome. congrats on finishing nursing school. i too took kaplan and dont feel that it was all that great, but they have a great reputation so who knows. my advice is to follow your gut, if you dont feel prepared, then review your content and schedule the nclex whenever you want. it will always be there.

i think its normal to be nervous and scared, but i really think those feelings can be harmful. try to be positive and remember all that you have accomplished. passing the nclex will be another accomplishment for you, and you will look back at your post and smile. best of luck to you!

Supposedly you can check the site for cancellations...sometimes people will decide they want to postpone their test and you can get an earlier date. Good luck!
