Graduated in December. I have been reviewing everyday. Used ATI for content, also Saunders. I practiced questions from La Charity and Davis Nclex review...both great books. Doing NSCBN 3wk review. Scoring upper 70s and 80s in qbanks. My attitude is I passed nursing school, did everything I could to prepare for this exam. I am going in there on jan 5th to give it my best shot. I am surprisingly very relaxed.
Any suggestions from anyone would br appreciated.

Stay calm & relax. Remember go into the examination from a critical thinking and safety perspective & keep this in mind for every question. Read the question 2 - 3 times and make sure you understand what the question is asking. If an answer jumps out immediately, re-read that question, because that option could be the distracter. Lastly, please do not think about anything else b4 or during that exam (such as I need to pass this to get a new job, or to benefit my child or to help my family), b/c this will create undue pressure and anxiety. Now relax and GO GET YOUR LICENSE.
Thank you.
