Today is tough , the reality has set in and my nerves and anxiety is up the roof !Yesterday I felt better probably because I numbed my emotions with alcohol . My exam was July 17th at 8 am. Started my day at 5 am , showered , and my husband and I went to breakfast at Denny's . Was in my car by 620 , no traffic had my GPS set up ,which was encouraged by my husband. I get to the city , following the GPS , darn thing had me going in cirlcles, telling me I had arrived to my destination and had me in a neighborhood full of houses...??? Luckily my husbad had also printed me directions which I now was looking at , and of course were the correct directions. Same street just on the opposite side , so was not far from the test center, thank god ! It was now 715 , so I made sure I could visually see the test center to make sure I was at the right spot :) Went back to my car , spoke to my husband told him I had arrived , and now took a deep breath , started to review last minute Labs and formula's. 740 , I decided to go into test center to check in , and get the show on the road! After all the check in process , which they take very serious, to ensure that you are the correct person and that no cheatting occurs. Now is the time which I have been preparing for , approx 3 months of studying ; saunders book with 2 q&q review cd's. Deep breath , said a prayer , ready set GO! Two hrs in , I take my scheduled break im at aprox... 67 I cant remember ... Went to the bathroom , had a snack (apple ) and h20. 10 min later , re- focused went back into battle... Next thing you know 40 min later BAM ... computer shuts off .. I didn't even know the number I was at .... Totally was not expecting that to happen !I was so focused on the question . I had planned for the 5 hrs 205 questions. I was done, my emotions were all over the place.. The guy that escorted me out , asked me the number I was at , my response to him was ,that I had no idea! He goes ,well you are smilling , but honestly ,I was in shock ! I still am ! He goes well we like to think around here that a low # is good...Im like well I had to be at least 85 , no more than 100, omg!! I felt the questions to be what I had studied, i didnt feel as if I bombed it ... But the low number in questions has me so worried !! I cant help but to be my worst critic . I dont know how to feal , I just cant help but think if I failed why I didnt get another opportunity to redeem myself... Can I honestly have gotten almost all the questions wrong ??? I can't seem to think I did very well... 48 hrs I will know !! I dont understand why they put us through this , we should get our results instantly !

The day is officially here! I have tried to do last minutes test and quizez but just feel as my brain is exhausted. I plan to go to Red Lobster for dinner as I heard fish is perfect " brain food " after dinner, I have scheduled a massage that is supposed to be relaxing.... And plan to get to bed early so I can arrive to my test center a hour befor my test to review last minute labs and equations .... And last but not least send all my close family and friends a message to keep me in their prayers tomorrow morning. Honestly feel as if I have put in a lot of hard work for several months ; saunders read from front to back several hours of review Q&A I have my LVN title visualized by my name and keep telling myself my hard work will pay off Please keep me in your prayers tomorrow !!! Thanks !

Congrats !!! I take mine tuesday july 17th and hope for the same outcome !

I would reccomend a planner or a journal to show in writting and to keep track of what you have read , studied and your scores. At first it may not seem helpful but as time passes it shows your progress as well as what you have accomplished and for me, it motivated me to continue. I also suggest you go to your local libbrary and use the study room to get you in a routine and out of your element. Also a strong coffe !

Im taking my exam tues july 17th. I have been studying since the end of April and still dont feel prepared . I read the Saunders book , but this last week have just been using Q&A review, and reviewing some notes I took from the book. I have good days were I feel I have done and prepared all that I can do ,and bad days were I just beat myself up and feel as if I dont know anything. This is truly a emotional rollercoaster and can't wait to get off .I cant wait to take this exam and hope for the best, because I am over studying and the stress ! It is so frustrating to have inconsistent scoring as well !!
