I used the NCSBN, took the 3 week review, and I was very pleased with the practice questions. On my test I got many questions I did in the practice tests with NCSBN. I consider it very helpful specially in the review of nursing interventions for the various illnesses/disorders because I was away the nursing field for quite a few years. I recommend you also Kaplan NCLEX-RN 2004/2005 book and CD, it provides all the hints and clues on how to select the appropriate answer, this one helped me a lot too. One last thing I did was practice a minimum of 200 questions each and every during 30 days prior the exam date, including weekends and holidays, non-stop until the day before. I passed the test with 193 questions. Hope this helps Good Luck

Hi Care Bear, Thanks for those nice words. I am half way now, lets see what happens. I am still nervous, its like I can't over come the shock. I will keep you posted. Regards D

CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!! :) :) :) Good for you. Now yes, it's party time.

I took NCLEX-RN today. All I can say is that walked out that place feeling like the worst thing on earth. I studied so hard, day in -day out and feel I did't do well, I was guessing a lot on some pathologies, I didn't even heard of. I had 193 questions, about 10 on new format calculation, and lots of priorization, who to assess first, who to return the call first, 1 in disaster, lots of medications, all types of pathologies -you name them. Peds, OB-GYN, DM. This is killing me softly. I don't know what to think, don't know I should cry, run or what. PLEASE PRAY FOR ME!! Thanks for your support and sharing. It is so good to know there is people out there sharing the same pain. It really helps.

Relax, I think you did well. You did the best you could, be positive and have Faith, He will help go through this... Best Wishes.

Eric, Just be positive everything will be ok. You did your best. I look forward to read good news from you pretty soon. I will have you in my prayers. I will be taking nclex this friday, lets see how I will do. Nerves are killing me. Best wishes D

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! Good job!! Now yes, you can relax and enjoy life. I am sure it feels like taking off a big weight of your back. Best of wishes in your position as RN. :) :) :)

Hi Care Bear, glad to know you are out of that pre-test trauma, now the post-test trauma is on. I'm sure you did well, keep up the Faith. I'll have you on my prayers. I am on the list for nov 05, so lets see what happens, stress is killing me... I'm studying so hard, I don't know what else to do. Pray for me too. Looking forward to read good news from you.
