Hey guys! I'm taking the Nclex Monday. I'm so incredibly nervous. I know of 2 people from my program who have failed already and now am wondering if I did enough to prepare. I took the Kaplan review course, did all Qbank questions (got mid 50s-60s on most) and did question trainers 1-7 and got the same results. I am so nervous but am comforted somewhat in the fact that MOST people pass on the 1st time.... but i'm still scared that i'm going to fail! ahh! stressed stressed stressed!

Hey! THINK POSITIVELY AND CONFIDENTLY! :) You've used a lot of good resources to review. Just have faith in yourself! :) Anxiety is a killllller!! I know it's hard to do this, but seriously, just relax :) Look back at all the reviewing you've done and feel good about it! You can do this....think about it, you survived nursing school!

Don't pay any mind to your other classmates. I started doing that too and was making my anxiety worse. I have classmates that did a lot more questions than me and had better scores, yet failed and I didn't. You will be just fine. Stay positive! Good luck :)

Take a deep breath. Breathe, remain calm, confident, and focused. I believe you'll do great. If you don't mind, I will say a prayer for you. Also, I haven't taken the exam yet. :)
Thanks guys!! I'm hoping I will have the same serenity that I did when taking tests in Nursing school- I literally would go in there and tell myself in my head over and over "you're going to pass! you got it girl!"... and it actually helped a lot i think. I am probably going to be back on here stressing even more when I don't know whether I've passed or not. Can't wait to get this pesky test out of the way for good!
And teacher08 yes please! I can use all the prayers I can get! I will pray for you as well. I know on the way over to the test I'm going to be coaching myself the whole way to the testing center and praying out loud... i'm glad it'll be before it gets light out so people don't think i'm cooky! :)

Awww, thank you. :)
Took the Nclex today... Took me 3 1/2 hours and I got the full 265 questions. I got the good pop-up from Pearson Vue... Now I'm just praying that the trick actually works! I'll be bummed if it doesn't!
I PASSED!
