yes there is some validity in the fact that near the end of graduation, you will have most of your information identified on the nclex is engrained in your memory, but there is still a requirement to study for the nclex! you cannot possibly remember the vast amount of material that you learn during your studies through your nursing program! you do, however, need to take things one step at a time, so focus on studying for graduation then and only then should you start to prepare for the nclex examination, possibly as much as 1-2 months before your scheduled nclex. hope this helps!
