and i'm freaking out. i don't know if i have done enough to prepare. i did the whole kaplan Qbank and i've got trainer 6 & 7 left. i also read that kaplan book they gave us at the class. my grades on the kaplan tests haven't been the greatest, mostly in the the 60's. a lot of my classmates have passed already, but i'm still worried that i won't. and i have a job waiting for me so that makes it 10x more terrifying. any words of wisdom and advice would be appreciated... thanks guys!

Hello meltnpointofwax:
I am taking my NCLEX-RN on Tuesday 2/7/2012. I have been preparing with Kaplan for the past 5 weeks. At this point, I just want to take it and get it over with, Im sick and tired of studying. I hope I will be ok, not planning on 75 Q or anything. I will just take them as they come.

i went through all of the rationales and i've basically had it up to here with studying. right now i am trying to review but i feel like i have forgotten everything that i've learned. i can't focus at ALL! i'm afraid i am going to go blank at the screen. i am also in the same position as both of you.... i have a job waiting for me at the end of this month. it's not even the job im worried about so much but that i just don't think i could handle studying for another 45 days well lets just hope we are ready!!
Good Luck to you guys!
Our scores seem pretty good (I think)...just a couple more days and I cant wait for this to be over!
good luck to you as well!!! we're so close!!! :)
