taking nclex tom nervous

Published

Hey all. Im about to take the nclex pn tom and I am back and forth with my confidence. I studied about 4 hrs a day for 2 weeks *i grad in mid dec*. I mostly am using saunders green book and doing nclex questions thru them. I was doing notecards on the tables in the saunders book but that took me forever, and I feel it is way too detailed. I know nclex is harder than the questions u can practice on, and im scared. I know if u panic u will prob fail, I did good in school but I freaked out on thte hesi pn test and I know thats a good indicator on how ur going to do on nclex. I need to focus and breath, I have a headache and idk what i should do for my remanding hrs before the test tom morn. any helpful advice and tips on what they throw at u is VERY APPECIATED =]

I just took my nclex pn last week, i gotta say being calm during the test makes you more focused at the questions. Dont forget to pray before you test !! it works !!. i did 2800 on saunders and did fine in the nclex. Overall , dont think about the test, relax, if you need to read , then read some cram notes , dont open the book at all.

let me know what happens and good luck to you.

Took it today and ended with 75 questions. I had no 'media' questions (pictures, audio) which makes me nervous about my results. Also, I had 20+ 'Select All That Apply' (including one with side effects of Remeron...c'mon!) =-) Lots of infection control questions...blah blah...just trying to let out some anxiety.

...my hands are still twitching. should've probably waited a few minutes to drive home

Just got the 'positive' pop-up result. I'm pretty confident now. Time to pop an Imitrex and lay down.

I had a lot of infection control questions on today's exam as well. Weird. Congrats on passing. Although I've never heard of the trick not-working I still am anxious to see my name and number!
