Hello, To all of those who have taken the N-CLEX and passed: what do you think was the best was to prepare for it? By reading content and studying it...or just practicing questions? I've been doing a mix of both, just wondering if I should focus the majority of my time practicing questions and learning from them. Thanks! \

Don't be nervous! You're going to school to LEARN! They will teach the things you need to know :) I just finished nursing school, and when I was a freshman going into it I had limited medical knowledge. You will be prepared for what you need to do along the way. Just stay focused, organized and positive! You will do great! Good luck!
