Schedule soon...don't let to much time go by. I tested 1 mo after I graduated. Which was 3 weeks after I got my ATT.
The thing is i graduated last year of March so I really dont know if I still retained what have been taught in our school and Im a foreign graduate too.should I enroll on kaplan?
I loved Kaplan & believe that it really helped me pass!! Yes I highly recommend it! They NCLEX questions are very similar to kaplans.

Plan out a study schedule first. Make sure you can study for at least 2 hours a day (bare minimum), which you should spend doing lots of practice questions. Since you graduated last year, I'm sure you'll need a lot of refreshers (content review), I'd take that into consideration. Unforunately, I don't think you'll ever feel ready. If you have nothing but time to study, I'd set a test date ASAP like 3 weeks. If you have work/family and you can barely study 2 hours/day, maybe schedule it in 2 months. Once you choose a date, stick to it & your study plan plus some good nclex review material, and you should be good. Good luck!
Thanks fro the advice! I have work but dont have my own family yet. I think I can manage to study at least 3-4 hours a day at max plus I dont go out during weekends thinking that Im just gonna waste mytime going out instead of staying at home studying! I'll keep that in mind thanks for the help and advice :)

I scheduled my test as soon as I got my ATT & got it for next month. I want to allow myself a 1 month of studying before going. Let's see how it goes. I plan to study everyday all day long. I'm pretty lazy, & if I hadn't scheduled my test already I wouldn't have been studying at all. I kind of need to feel pressure so I can study.

Schedule it immediately. Use the test date as a goal. Create a study schedule. Get your study on!!!!
Start with covering and refreshing your content base, end the last one or two weeks before the test just hammering out questions. Lot of questions, all formats, but focus on your priority setting.
Best of luck to you!

I would consider content review using Feuer or Hurst before Kaplan.
