Also, know your nutrition information. Foods that are high in potassium, calcium, sodium.Know your Lab values with criticals, write them on your white board when you are allowed to do so, this keeps them at your fingertips and you don't have to think about them until you need them.
Always remember Maslow's and ABC's
Know your contact, isolation, droplet, airborne precautions and what diseases require which precaution.
Also, remember the harder the questions get, the better you are doing on your test.
There is a 99% chance that you will walk out feeling like you have failed your test. Just remember we all do , it's of little comfort but it does help a little. When you get home, do the PVT (read on here about that) and it should relieve your anxiety somewhat.
Best of luck!
Thanks again!! What did you use to prepare yourself?

I mostly used the NCLEX 3500 (you can find the link on here) and Saunders 5th edition (yellow book) and I took a Kaplan assessment to see areas I was weak in and focused on those areas. That's pretty much it, I didn't really study that much, because I felt that if I didn't know it by now, cramming it in wasn't going to help me pass.
Hi Everyone. I'm new here. Been reading the comments. I took my NCLEx 1/28. And when my question got to question 75 and the system didn't shut down, I freaked out cos i depended on what my school mates were posting on facebook that theirs stopped when they got to 75 questions.Yes i made a big mistake.To cut the whole story short, I failed & will be retaking it again nxt month. I've avoided face book this time around & I pray that I'll do well this time around.
