Taking my nclex tomorrow and I'm stressed out

[JbreezyRN]

Hello all!

I'm taking my nclex-rn and the nervousnesss finally started to sink in. I'm really freaking out right now. I've only used Saunders and its questions to prepare for this exam and I don't know if I'm totally geared up for this. I can't afford taking kaplan classes or buy other books. I hope I'll be fine I really don't feel confident at all, I do feel I'm going to fail the first time and I'm just trying to prepare for it. Oh well.....

I would like to congratulate all those who passed! I'm really happy for you guys :)

Btw, can I start using the PVT the same day I took my exam or should I wait a bit longer?

Stressing out isn't going to do you any good. If you had let stress beat you every time you took a test in nursing school, you never would have graduated. So look at this as just another test. Now is the time to put your relaxation exercises into play and say a little prayer or two. Good luck.

caliotter3..thank you so much hun. My boyfriend told me if I didnt pass, its not the end of the world. I can still take it again. But the studying process beats you up. I just pray that everything will be fine...

hello all

I took the test this morning. I answered all 265 questions and I was mentally exhausted after 3 hrs being there. I can't believe how hard it was. Then I tried the PVT when I got home and I just like I thought, it lead me to the credit card page so I know its not good news for me...

I'm soo devastated and depressed right now :crying2::crying2::crying2:

I already knew as soon as I walk out the testing center, I have a small chance of passing it. I didn't feel confident at all. I don't know, its just discouraging...
