Goodluck everyone on you nclex!! Just wanted to let you guys know, I just borrowed my friends hurst book. (Didn't attend the review/did online review course) I read that plus purchased the kaplan qbank only. My advice is to do 85-100/day and to make sure you read your rationales. During my nclex, I hid the box that tells me which question I was on. (Just to reduce my anxiety) I also prayed and meditated before I took my test. Let me tell you, I blanked out on my first question. So I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and told myself I could do this!! I finally checked my box once and I was on question 96. (I tried to keep calm and meditated for a sec again) 3 questions later, my computer stopped! :) Don't let your anxiety get the best of you! It can mentally block info. Good luck everyone and make sure to pray!!

Finally!!!! ☺️ woooo

Did you get your card yet??

Good job!!! Congrats!!

How was it?

You can do this! Move forward and think positive :) I was out of school for years as well before I took my nclex! Just think that it wasn't the right time yet. Now this is your time to shine! :)

Wooo!!! Congrats!!!

Hurst-content Kaplan qbank- similar/somewhat harder than nclex which is good (read the rationales) Saunders-I don't know about reading the whole thing. But just read on your weaknesses Nclex mastery app- great app on the go instead of facebooking Don't forget to take breaks, eat properly, think positive, and pray! :) goodluck! Don't lose hope! You can do this!!

Let me know when you get yours!

Lol oh no! Hmm okay what's your email? I'll email you

Click on my profile. Then I think there's an envelope looking on the top right

Hello! Can you send me a message??

Hayy... Yea I've been checking like everyday too! Argh!

I've got coworkers who calls in "sick" almost every weekend. It sucks! I hope she got written up for making a scene at work a couple of weeks ago just because she didn't wanna stay at work for another hour to cover for a shift. Lies lies lies! She came back to work like nothing happened. Tsk tsk

You can do this! :) good luck and don't forget to pray!

You should do some questions 75-100 per day and read the rationales. Don't memorize everything except the lab values, ABGs, etc. know the vaccine being given to children at certain age. 1st thing 1st, have a calendar and plan your study days and which content you want to focus on or goals for that day and week :) you can't memorize everything on the book but just try to understand :)

Congrats!!! :)

Check out my post nclex advice! I hope it helps!

Try not to think/compare yourself with the others. You can do this :) know your content, know what would a SAFE nurse do? Pray! :) you can do this! Don't let your anxiety get to you! Do the best you can!

You can do this! :)

I definitely agree with you. It's more of memorizing the material. On the other hand, hurst is more on content and it's easier to understand. I've tried NCSBN, excell, Kaplan (qbanks are good) but Hurst worked for me. Like I said, everyone's different. I've been out of school for years so I really needed something to refresh my memory. If you've just graduated, the other options might be better for you. :) Check out my nclex advice. It might help! Pray and know that you can do this!!! :) Good luck! You can do it!

You're welcome!! Good luck!! I'll pray for you! :)

Have you had your first sip of coffee yet? Lol Debbie Downer for sure

I agree but I still think that if you had several SATA, you might have been doing good. Test varies. On my first try, I didn't get much SATA's and failed. 2nd time, I had several and passed. Like I said, it's a 50/50 chance.
