Published

I have been studying for nclex using exam cram for content,kaplan for testing strategies and lacharity for priorotizing. I didnt do the case studies in the lacharity or maybe i should have. I take my test on thursday and i have decided to work on meds and lab values this week and not do anymore questions. What do you suggest?!!!!!(questions or not)

Suggestion: Chill.

By this point, you either know it or you don't and cramming for the next three days is unlikely to produce any material difference in your performance - particularly for the good.

Casually review your meds and your lab values as planned and then (a) rest a lot, (b) eat well, © keep hydrated.

Remember, 85% of first-time takers pass the NCLEX so unless you're (a) a lousy student or (b) suffer from severe test anxiety, you're very likely to pass.

Really, relax.

I suggest, Lab Values and do nothing 2 days before thursday. Relax and do something really fun, and you should have enough rest for the big day. Don't change any of your routine suddenly. Eat well balance meal and pray.

Goodluck

If you think you need to practice more on questions then go for it. Some people knows a lot about Nursing Contents but doesn't know how to apply it in answering questions. It's only you who can assess yourself.

Good luck!

You're for sure ready! Good luck! I'm doing Lacharity now and finished all exam cram questions also from 2 books awhile ago.

I haven't done much content review as I just graduated from nursing school...so everything is still fresh in my mind.
