Hi..im going to take the nclex rn exam this coming june 10..iam taking kaplan on demand review.i am really trying my best to review but this past few days im feeling like im so down and depressed.i think the nclex is scaring me pretty bad..my scores in my kaplan q bank ranges from some few 50's to mostly 60"s and 70's..my q trainers are also ok and my readiness test is 70% but what really scares me the most is the SATA. I cant seem to get it correct during practice tests.i just answered the Sample q bank test 4 and got a 22% and wasnt able to finish it..im really getting scared to the point that I am having palpitations and chest pains.my husband is gettimg worried about me. I dont know what to do anymore.i just want to pass this test.i dont know what to do..need your help..thanks
I feel like Kaplan was a waste of time and money. I did poorly with the Kaplan review course. SATA questions are hard and intimidating when you're trying to make sure you get each answer and not too many. I just dissected the questions and ran through each answer choice to see if it fit. I think keeping in mind that it is okay to fail your first time and that all is not lost if you do really helps take some of the anxiety away, which is very important. It's hard to test well when all you can think about is whether or not you'll fail.

Yeah i think i really got overwhelmed and occupied in passing this exam. Iam an IEN,taken the CGFNS exam way back 2005. I passed it the first time,was about to take the NCLEX back then but because of some financial issues wasnt able to sit for the exam.but i can clearly remember myself back then when i took the CGFNS exam that Im not like this.
