Need advice. Pls help! (Reschedule or not?)

[angel_20]

I scheduled my exam next week. I feel that I'm not yet ready. I took a vacation for 3 days and did not study. So I feel that I missed a lot. What do you think? I checked the website and the only available date is aug 7 which is another 3 weeks. It's long but it's more than enough time to study. Any advice will help. Thanks!! P.s I started studying since may but there are days that I'm not reading/studying.

No matter what u never going to feel ready. But if u have study like u are suppose to you be fine and it all right to take a break too don't feel bad about it. If u really don't feel ready then reschedule but I think u are ready u got this

Everyone I know, myself included, had second thoughts before the exam and felt like they should reschedule. And I don't know anyone that failed. You're never going to feel totally ready. It sounds like you've already been studying for a while, I think you should go for it! The sooner you take it, the fresher everything you learned in school is, so there's an advantage to not waiting. Good luck : )

I took mine the day after I got back from a 7 day vacation and I passed. It's fine. You are never going to feel ready.

I totally agree with everyone else... u will never feel ready. if you keep waiting that only makes your anxiety build up more and just adds to the days that you feel like you need to be looking at something. You are definitely ready... you have the knowledge from nursing school so now u just have to keep doing questions. I took nclex rn on july 8th and the computer shut off at 75 questions. I was so nervous but I honestly felt confident with most of my answers. I found out on july 9th that I did pass!! I did the pvt and got the good pop up but I wouldn't let myself believe it until I saw my name and license number on the board of nursing website. so good luck to you and everyone else who has to tackle this monster!! But try to get your nerves in order before you take them because ive had a few friends that I really think didn't pass because of that. It's normal and ok to be a little nervous... just don't let it get the best of you!!
