Next Tuesday (the 7th) is my testing date. This is my second time taken the boards, and its only one test I have to pass to complete my dreams. I haven't told anyone my testing day besides my husband and my boss so that all my instructors and nursing classmates won't bother me and up my anxiety. So I have no one to turn to and ask for advice!!! I have so many interventions, meds, and facts flying through my head!! I can't seem to clam down!! Any advice on how to to focus and to keep me from going crazy?? :barf01:

hi there! i feel what you have been going through now adays!!! just keep calm, relax and stress free...spend sometime with your husband or if you've got kids have a family fun day out. leave all your worries, and anxieties behind, forget about those stuff, just try to enjoy a stress free mind.... and most of all PRAYERS.....im pretty sure that all those months you spent preparing for your NCLEX will be just right onto you mind on the day of your exam. register in your mind that you'll be a US licensed nurse in few days time.... believe in yourself and TRUST in GOD above all. i know you can make it....
i'll be taking my NCLEX soon... by the 17th of August... yes, its true i have been anxious for these past few days now... and GOD always calm me down. i go straight onto the prayer room or wherever i am and there i start talking to HEAVENLY FATHER. again, i hope i can be the first one to congratulate you too!

Oh thank you so much for your kind words. Yesterday, in chruch the preacher spoke about Naaman (Kings 2) having faith in the Lord when the prophet told him to wash in the Jordan seven times to heal he's leprosy. And at the end he stated that God dropped something heavy on his heart to say, he said that someone in the church was about to take their last dip (in the river) and when he or she comes out on the over side, they will be healed. I felt as if he was speakin' to me because I'm steppin' out on faith and taken this test one more time. And on the other side when I come out, I will be an RN!!! And I go ahead and give him thanks & praise him for my answered prayers!!

I know the devil has a way of sending comments or bad tots from the pit of hell but i thank God for the faith and calmness he place in ur heart.you'll make it.just like the previous person said,before the date of my exams,i had to go out on an end of the year party just to go out cos at the time,it seemed i was saturated and needed a time out.Just do the same thing.if u dont have a place to go,you can take a long walk just to relax a bit.
You'll make just believe in God and yourself.on that day of exams just like i was told in kaplan,take ur time in the first 100 Q cos u never know,the computer might shut off at 75Q.goodluck.
