HELLO,
I JUST WANT TO VENT (AGAIN)...I AM TAKING MY BOARD TOMORROW AT 7 AM...I'M VERY TERRIFIED AND SO UNSURE OF MY KNOWLEDGE. FOR THE PAST 3 DAYS I HAVE BEEN HAVING NIGHTMARES ABOUT IT....IS THIS A SIGN THAT MAYBE I SHOULD NOT TAKE THE BOARD AS OF YET?????? I HAVE BEEN STUDYING BUT I'M NOT REALLY DOING GOOD IN MY SCORES...MY CONFIDENCE LEVEL IS FALLING....I OFFICIALLY START WORKING (TELEMETRY UNIT) THIS SUNDAY. I KNOW A LOT OF YOU RECOMMEND NOT TO DO ANYMORE STUDYING THE DAY BEFORE BUT I JUST FEEL LIKE I NEED TO DO A LAST MINUTE CRAMMING.
I'M PRETTY MUCH COVERED WITH THE LAB VALUES, INFECTION CONTROL AND PREVENTION, THERAPEUTIC COMMUNICATION, AND SAFFETY AND COMFORT MEASURES...BUT I'M STILL STRUGGLING BIG TIME WITH PHYSIOLOGICAL ADAPTATION AND DEVELOPMENTAL GROWTH.......CAN YOU GUYS WHO HAVE TAKEN THE NCLEX GIVE SOME LAST MINUTE GUIDANCE ON WHAT TO FOCUS ON IN A MATTER OF ONE DAY STUDYING....OH ALSO, HOW WAS THE PHARMACOLOGY PRESENTED? THANK YOU!
I WILL MAKE IT...I WILLL MAKE IT...I WILL MAKE IT...I WILL MAKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( HOPE THIS HELPS )....
I KEEP TELLING MYSELF ALSO THAT 3 DAYS FROM TOMORROW I CAN LEGALLY SIGN MY NAME WITH AN RN AT THE END......,
AND TO ALL OF YOU WHO ARE SCHEDULED TO TAKE THE NCLEX.....GOODLUCK!!! THANKS!

I wouldn't study anymore except maybe going over prioritizing. What materials did you use to study with?
By the way, I not only studied the day before the exam, I also studied the day OF the exam as I didn't take it until 3:00pm.
Good luck!

Oh,Gosh!!! I have so many study materials. I have Saunders (barely used), Kaplan 2005-2006, Exam Cram, Princeton, learning ext, and I also took a review class right after graduation (Drexel) but I didn't find it helpful. I have been using a lot of the learning extension thru NCSBN. I have been doing about 150-200 questions a day for 2 months now but I just can't score higher that 70 though......Really I have thoughts of rescheduling but I guess it's too late now...I'm just gonna go and I'll just leave my fate to God. If it's meant to be it's meant to be if not at least I know I've done my best and go from there....I WILL MAKE IT.....I WILL MAKE IT!!!!!!!

Hello, i took the NCLEX today and who knows how i did. I received 75 questions and felt confident when i left the building. However as the hours are ticking by, i keep doubting my choices and the whole day is like a blur. I would give you this advice, calm down, read carefully and trust in your instincts. My test was mainly priority, chest tube, isolation, and herbs??? :uhoh21: Good luck and i hope we will both become nurses this week.
I took mine today and i think we had the same crappy test
DITTO, i had isolation and herb. took mine and had75. feel the same way.
