hi guys i will be taking the exam on november 6 and im so nervous as hell. but im still trying to be positive and hope for the best. i try to answer 75-100 questions a day and i always get 50-60 percent. i dont do much of the reading but instead i always just answer questions and study the rationale. you think its not a good idea to just answer questions and not study so much on books?:confused:
ho do you study?

that's exactly what i did! i was just doing questions on my nclex 3500 and saunders and i was scoring in the 50s - 60s but i made sure i read and understood all the rationales on all questions. i also used lacharity book which i highly recommend. to be honest, i got discouraged with those scores so i stopped using the "test mode" and switched it to "study mode" so i was just doing questions one after the other and reading all the rationales without worrying about the scores.
i had 75 qs and passed.
be confident and believe in your self. good luck to you.
