I graduated in 2004 and have taken the nclex a few times and have not gotten lucky yet!!! I have been studying so hard and have gotten the guts to take it again next mon 3/6 I am soooooo nervous. I feel like I have been out of it for so long. But what I have read not as long as others. Anyone have any last minute study tips to calm my nerves to help me pass this thing so I can get on in life. I will take any pointers????

Hi bbgirl,
I understand where you are coming from, I had my test today. Try to relax you have 3 more day until you put the books away and try to relax, you can do this. Your goal is to walk out of the nclex building with your license in hand. Remember to keep the lord first for who all blessing flow, he is the light and the only way. If you remember that nothing can fade you.
goodluck on monday will keep you in prayer.
JESUS IS LORD

Good luck! Take your time on the first 75 questions, I took 2 hours to answer 75 questions and it switched off at 78!
You can do it! Try to have a relaxing evening the day before and get a good nights sleep (if its possible!)

hi ukhannah, got to know that u took 2 hrs to answer 75 questions....dont they have a time limit?? ie 1min to answer each question....at least that is a consolation...coz i take more than a min to answer some questions n i was getting worried about me exceeding the time on a question...

hi, bbgirl
just try to relax and take all the time you'll need.. don't rush. you're gonna be in my prayers!! good luck and let us know how was it.
Hi hopeful,
The time limit was 6 hours, but I figured that the first 75 questions are the most important hence I spent along time with them, because if you get most of the first ones right your climbing the ladder to the more difficult level questions and if you can stay near the top of the ladder, more chance of the computer switching off at 75.
My plan was to spend a lot of time on the first 75 and if the computer carried on then obviously speed up a little. It worked!
Good luck to you both
