Thanks for sharing Hypersaurus, RN. I am going on my own tomorrow and sick to stomach right now. I so want this feeling to end ASAP.

Thanks RN2012Newbie for your response. I really need that encouragement and I feel happy when people say you will see light at the end of tunnel after sometime. I am hanging in there and will continue to hang as much as possible. I know all I can do ...

This thread has given me so much power and inspiration to move on with my new job as I am also a New Graduate Nurse. 2 months of orientation ending this week and soon will be on my own from next week. This feeling of anxiety, overwhelm, stress is all...

I don't know how Hurst review is, but Kaplan Q-Bank was so much similar to real NCLEX for me. But, we all know everyone's test is different. I would say stick to what you have and include PDA to it and just go with it for 1 month that you have. And g...

I agree with everyone above. I suggest do not ignore the unknown topics you come across while doing questions....it will hunt you later too. Goodluck!!!

Number of questions doesn't really help you decide as far as I know. Did you do that trick yet? I heard it works most of the time and it worked for me too. Goodluck!

Thank you guys. More comments are welcome from anyone else out there.

Hi guys, Millions thanks to everyone of you who post here and keep others updated and encouraged. I am a new grad BSN, RN and I landed my first job in Trauma unit. They have given me with enough orientation period. But still, I am quite nervous abou...

Content and practice questions, are both equally important is what I think and know. When you get bored with reading chapters, switch to doing and reviewing questions. Once you are comfortable with contents, just stick to question/answers/rationale. ...

Congratulations to you!

Eat good because you don't know how long you might be there.......don't let hunger distract you.......and yes they don't allow you to wear jacket and watch...there will be sample questions before real test question comes up...although your time will ...

Very sorry to hear that. It is a learning experience, you will get there...a lil late may be but you will get there. I want to ask you that did you take enough time during the test? Because my test was so hard and required lots of critical thinking a...

Congratulations to you. Looks like this is gonna be a thread full of Nepalese. I am Nepali too. Just graduated from NJ and took the boards and currently facing the challenge of finding a job. Hope it will end soon too. Good luck to Dordol123.

Goodluck for tomorrow to both of you. Looking at last min lab values had really helped me. So, do that and try and get good night sleep cause you really don't know for how long you will be taking the exam. Wish you tons of luck and prayers!

Congrats!

Focus+Hard Work= PASS.........so keep up with it......you will do great...and I heard NCSBN has a choice of how many weeks you wanna do...and lesser the weeks cheaper the price I think....check it out...it might be within your budget....ok here is th...

Hi, I just passed NCLEX and I think Kaplan is a great help. Just keep doing those questions and rationales and ask yourself why that one answer is right and why others are wrong as you go. My exam was so much like Kaplan....and required a lot of crit...

Hi, I would say NCLEX Exam format and types of question is similar to Kaplan......just answer the questions just like you would answer Kaplan questions.....don't change your way of answering them. Kaplan helped me very much with the exam.......try an...

Thanks C-Lion. Will let you know how it goes.....those disagreement and conflict type questions are so hard to answer since I had none of those episodes thus far. Will do some research...please share if you come up with anymore inputs...thanks again!

Hi- If any of you view this blog now, what did you guys do while shadowing? I know ask questions, but we can't do direct patient care, so what else did you guys do? I have shadowing after interview coming up....and I am a new grad and have no idea a...

Question for C-Lion: Hi, I am a new grad and have an interview on Trauma Step down unit in few days. I saw your post and am interested in how your interview went by in trauma-step down unit, what was it like and what did they focus over during the in...

WOW, took the NCLEX-RN yesterday. It went blue after 75 questions. I turned blue as well....lol..not knowing was it for a good or bad. But, stepped out shaky and sweaty. Did the trick today and got good pop-up that everyone talks about and I really h...

Smara- I had about 10-12 SATA, few who would you see first, I had lots of meds that I stopped counting after a while, couple of therapeutic communication and some random questions which i had never prepared/seen before. Goodluck!
