Of course, everyone has heard this a million times already... I'm taking the NCLEX tomorrow and I am extremely anxious and nervous. The thing is, I always heard that Saunders was a great resource so I've been using Saunders primarily for the past 3 months. But just recently, I've been hearing more and more that Kaplan is a better resource because it is more similar to the NCLEX. I have a Kaplan book but I've hardly used it. Should I even bother to read through it now? Is Saunders enough? I can see that the Kaplan questions are much harder so I am very worried!! Anyone with any suggestions, please help!!! Thank you!

With the test being tomorrow, there is literally nothing more for you to do in less than 24 hours. Also, there are people who have not touched Kaplan at all and have been just as successful in passing as those who used other resources. Have faith, your mind is wandering right now (the same as I was last year). Today, you should try to unwind and mentally prepare yourself with loving, positive thoughts. Now, tomorrow, run in there and knock them dead, Tiger!! Good luck!
Thanks so much! I know that I'm just nervous and panicking right now. I realized how ridiculous I was being after I posted my message. I just have never been this nervous before! I can't wait to get this over with already. Thank you again for your reassurance. I will pass!!

I agree. Just sit back and relax. You will do fine.
All I studied from was Saunder's and I passed with 75 questions in 35 minutes!

At this point, there's no point in trying to dive into a new book. You're more likely just to stress yourself out.
Get a good night's sleep and try to relax while you take the test.
I PASSED!!!! Thanks everyone for all of your support. I am so happy this is over! :monkeydance:
netty78, RN... it has a nice ring to it.
