Repro for EC- possible??

[dslpninla]

So I have been studying for the reproduction test since beginning of January and wanted to take the test before February began.... (ugh!) I work 40 hrs a week and study til 12 t0 1 am only to get up at 5a and do it all over. So I am not on schedule, but I keep taking notes and wondering- is this test possible with SOOO much info?? As a mom of 2 you'd think you would know more, but who says "Hey here's the _____ sign!" while pregnant!

I have 2 notebooks of notes that I have written so far and am so few pages from being done with the third. I also have SG101 notes that I use as a guide and research on my own. I have L.Arends as well but do not use nearly. I am feeling so overwhelmed and this is one of four tests I have left. I am hoping for beginning of may to be done, but the way repro info/studying is going I have no clue.....

Guess I am just ranting really.... I know others have been here too. Thanks for "listening"! I appreciate all of you guys!!!

i know how you feel... i think you just need to stick with a schedule that works for you & review the material. also set a date for the test that might help

Why don't you take the practice tests and see how ready you may already be? You might be ready now and are talking yourself out of it. Good luck.

In my opinion Repro was the easiest test out of all them. I just finished my last test yesterday. You can do this!!! Definately take practice exams!

I know how u feel too, two of my friends just took it and both pass with "B's" I have to still take mine .. They both said it wasn't to bad and not what they expected. I have two jobs two small kids and bit over whelmed. Good luck we all need it!

Thank you all for the support!! I knew you guys would know how I am feeling!! I am going to take the first practice exam tonight to gauge where to go from there.... will update once I'm done. So scared I'll do terrible!!!

UPDATE*** So I just finished my Practice Exam A and I made a '60'. I honestly thought I did better, but I do see that I am going WAY too in depth on my studying. I am not sure if that is good or not.

I scheduled my test for repro and the next available dates were this Friday OR wait until march 10th--- wow thats far!! I am debating on going friday, but again the last thing I want to do is have to retake..... Not sure yet what I'll do- besides study more....

I am hoping I did well on the first practice exam.... at lease I do see where I need to improve! Thank you!!

"Our" story seems to be the general one I hear--- I just hope people don't take it as me complaining. Sometimes you just need a bit of support and to know others are going through it too and you CAN come out on the other side!

Any idea when you will schedule your test? Hows the studying going?? Thank you!!

Use the Saunders Nclex review it's enough info and not too much info. The review is spot on for the test.
