Shut Down @ 85 - Took NCLEX PN for the first time in New York.

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Took NCLEX PN for the first time. Self study with different handouts from 2009 and 2010 lectures and not popular books. I used free NCLEX Apps in my phone and answer some questions in websites that offer free q&a. Joined the facebook group for taking NCLEX/Group Study where in they managed to post tons of q&a plus rationale and posting different lectures in adobe format. Also watch Youtube for NCLEX lectures and topics by USRN lecturers. In other words, I have no budget buying lots of review materials. I just spent 1 hour to 2 hours reviewing and answering then sleep or facing the internet, LAZY indeed. Also busy in part time job and sports most of the time. Its my fault I guess...

Anyway just want to share this, I really don't know what happened to me yesterday. Its a BOMB!!! HONESTLY I found it tricky and hard not because I didn't study so well, but the way the questions are delivered or the wordings NCLEX used.. I'm so tired.... I received 3-4 questions about meds and not familiar in 2 meds given, 1 dosage calculation fill in the blank, 10-15 SATA, 2 graphics, 2 exhibit, 1 drag and drop/order in response, lots of seminar/educational type questions, living will, advance directives, pedia and maternal questions. I also answered 4-5 questions that are purely GUESS coz I really don't know....

My last question I received was SATA and I'm not good in SATA. I hate it :3 I didn't try the PVT coz they said that it changed already or doesn't really work or accurate at all ... Prefer to wait for the result via mail. Good day everyone.

@Faith1st I saw another post that you said you passed so why studying again for NCLEX?

You're going to take NCLEX PN? @Faith1st Well don't cram... As of this moment, you're answering questions and reading rationale afterwards. Honestly, I didn't answer too much questions. Maybe around 50-80 per day for 1 week before my exam. Be sure to memorize your normal values and common drugs side effects and actions. Prioritization and delegations. Practice more SATA questions. Pray before you study and before after your exam. It will help!!! Have a good sleep, breakfast and lunch before your exam which I don't have when I took my exam last Oct 27. I'm just too lucky I survived that day. Walking dead and answering dead ! Its not that hard, believe me. Just read the questions twice. Pay attention with these words "NOT, required Follow UP, not belong, nurse SHOULD , shouldn't " >>>>> THESE WORDS ARE TRAPS ! GOODLUCK! btw i shut down @ 85
