Hi everyone I graduated nursing school last year. I am about to take my NCLEX on Monday, I am really nervous and anxious. Some of my colleagues already took it and passed. I am praying that I will too. I study the entire Saunders book and did on the go practice questions in my phone using the Samsung app. But still I don't feel confident for the big day.
Anyone with the same dilemma please share your inspirational story, my self-esteem is running low. I had my LVN license and passed it the first time with a minimum number of questions,however, most people that I knew told me that LVN is a piece of cake, NCLEX-RN is nothing compared to it which makes me feel so nervous.

The first thing you have to do is reduce your anxiety and increase your confidence. A lack of confidence will cause you to second guess yourself, which is a bad move.
Find something that increases your confidence, such as answering questions and getting tons right. Write down the ones you eliminate and why before picking your final answer. That's what I did.
I wish you luck!
Thank you! Best of luck to you too.

Literally just took my NCLEX at 2pm today. It was nerve-racking. I used HURST and KAPLAN for preparation. I ended up taking 216 questions before the test shut off and now I'm so anxious for my results I can't sleep. Do your absolute best to remain calm and reduce your anxiety. Like the poster above me said, we have made it this far. Best of luck to everyone on Monday
