Studying for NCLEX - Hang in there

So I am sitting on a flight back to Boston from a medical meeting at the NIH, and a row in front of me is two nursing students with no fewer than 6 NCLEX review books spread across their tray tables frantically quizzing each other and talking through wrong answers and generally looking concerned.

So so I just wanted to make a quick post and say: hang in there! It's a long road the culminates in an intimidating exam and the stress is constant and all encompassing. I know it's hard but take a few moments to breathe, think about all you have ecompished and how far you have come. The rest of your life is about to start, take a moment and enjoy it! The vast majority of you will do just fine. Breathe.
