THIS WORKS 100%!! I PASSED!!!! If u get the good pop up dont worry u PASSED!!!!!!!! Believe me, I just knew I was goin 2 be the only one 2 come back and say it didnt work, IT WORKS:redpinkhe!!!!!

I just took nclex 2day and had 86 questions, I feel there is no way I answered enough correctly 2 only have the minimum and if it determined pass or fail that quick then I am almost certain im on the fail side! I seen this tip, tried it and got the good pop up msg, Im hoping & praying that this works!! As soon as I get my results I will repost, until then I will continue several re-registering attempts hoping I keep getting the 'good' msg lol

Thankx You Guys!!

lol IKR, it's ALOT of info! Well at least now u know your teacher pulls Q's from the saunders book, now u can start reviewing those also before each test..notecards don't work for every1 they helped me with memorization b/c they allowed me to read it write it then read it again and they allow you to focus on that one specific topic and the main points(I sometimes got discouraged from reading out of the book, put me in sensory overload after a while lol) I also agree with the person above me, reading before class is very helpful..make sure to review each test and figure out what u did wrong, schedule an appt with your teacher for some advice..sounds 2 me like u are already doing everything an A student does I just think your putting to much stress on yourself, make sure your not looking to much into subjects, u will overload your brain with so much unneccessary stuff that u are not focusing on the main points, trust me been there done that lol..some people are just good test takers, so don't worry about the one's who are doing better than you b/c in the end the most important thing is retaining all of that info, not just making a good grade!!

Thankx everyone! @ Lisa1980 and k3104 were u always able to find them when u needed them?? Are the books real expensive thru excelsior?

Im considering excelsior college Ive heard u can get books on ebay, my question is are the books easy 2 find?? Im a little nervous that if I start I wont be able 2 find books...

I experienced this same problem! My study method had always been strictly memorization but in nursing you have to know what it is, what causes it, s/s, interventions etc.. Some of the things that worked for me included notecards, I recorded each lecture and listened 2 them in the car, while exercising basically anytime I was able to, I also found it helpful to join a study group. In the front of your saunders book there should be some test taking strategies that should really help, for example always eliminate the 2 answers that are similar and usually if 2 answers are the exact opposite one will usually be the correct answer..hope I could be of some help! Most importantly before your tests don't put so much pressure on yourself, u will sike yourself out of that A! GOOD LUCK! (pay attention to how your teacher tests..do most Q's come from study guide, notes, lecture) that helped me ALOT!!

THANKX!! I will definetly be looking into excelsior!!

I went to the one in Kentucky..WOW less than $6k, thats awesome! I spoke with a guy from college network about excelsior but it sounded like a scam 2 me, u know like those used car salesmen:( Is it hard?? Thankx 4 the info!!

I recently graduated from the LPN program at Galen College in KY, I want to go back 2 school for my RN but I really don't want to owe Galen $20,000 on top of the $16,000 that I already owe them especially when their credits don't transfer everywhere:crying2: Does anyone know of any schools that has a lpn to rn bridge program that is accredited that will accept Galens credits?????
