Taking NCLEX-RN in 7 days!! Freaking out!!

Published

I wasn't really nervous until now. I graduated May 14...started orientation at my job June 2 and have been working since so I haven't had all the time in the world to study. I've been doing some practice questions. I haven't kept track but I would say I've done close to 1000. I graduated as valedictorian of my class and scored an 86% on the ATI comp predictor which gave me a 99% chance of passing the first time. I bought the kaplan blue book and did the test on the CD-ROM and scored a 78%. I'm working on the one in the book now. Do you all think I'll be ok? Any advice on things I may want to focus on this last week? Any advice or reassurance is very much appreciated. Thanks!!!

It is up to you but 1000 questions doesn't sound a lot. The main thing is understand what the question is asking and check out the rationales on the ones you get wrong and understand what they was looking for. Practice as many questions as you can but take the day before the exam as a day off and try to relax. Using one book is fine but ensure you are using it properly

From what you are writing, it seems that you did your work to prepare well for the test. It seems to me, that you would make a great nurse. Trust your judgment and abilities. You can do it!
