Hi Everyone!
I am so nervous. I take my NCLEX in 2weeks and I am sooooo nervous and scared. I dont know if I studied enough.. I mean how much do you really need to study? I just dont know. How much is too much? I passed the hesi exit with a 1081 which =96.9% and I heard that if you pass that its like a 99 accuracy of passing the nclex but im too how can they be sure. So I am wondering is there anyone out there that pass the hesi exit PN and failed the NCLEX? Is the hesi test a good indicator of passing the nclex? Im so nervous. I have studing the Saunders, exam cram and Kaplan.... but I just dont know if I know enough and HELP PLEASE!

You'll do fine. I didn't take HESI because we don't have that in our school and I still went and took the NCLEX and passed. I did go over Saunders and Kaplan, if you've gone through those feel confident you will pass.

You really need to relax - change your attitude, it will make a big difference.
Read material on "the process of elimination..." i had a fantastic instructor from TN visit our campus for a hesi live review and her advice really helped... prepare yourself on identifying HOT KEY WORDS for every question, answer your question first before even looking at the options, if two answers are almost identical then it's probably not the one, and above all.... prioritize!
Whether or not the HESI and NCLEX passing rates are accurate to one another, you are doing everything you should be doing, get at least 3000 questions done overall, take breaks, sleep well, eat well, and reduce your stress. Judging from your post, you're panicking and you need to get a hold of that. I might sound harsh, but I'd prefer this to be a wake up call for you to think "I don't have control over what's on the NCLEX, but I'm going to pass because I'm doing my best..." PERIOD.
A blessing for you - I'm sure you will do well. Keep us in the loop =)
LOL, thanks for the advice but I am not really in a panic... just NERVOUS! Im sure you were/willbe too if or when u take your boards. We also had the hesi lady come to our school and yes it was helpful she was great but I am still very nervous. I have come so far and I just want to do well. Assuming since you had the hesi lady did u also take the Exit Exam? How did you do? Im excited and nervous and very ready to take this test and get it over with. I mean its only so much you can study its like you know it or you dont now. Test in 5 days. I will definitely keep u posted!
I took the exit hesi, passed both times (school makes us take it twice)...interesting the first one I scored 857...but I knew I psyched myself out and then after the hesi live review class I scored 1110. I knew reducing my nerves was key...
I totally get you...I'm prepping for NCLEX and just will do my best to keep focused, but still balanced. Not saying you're not, lol...
Exciting? Definitely!!!! Look forward to you passing in five days!!!!!
