The FINAL final

Tomorrow morning at 0900 I take my "final" final exam in the RN program. I am a mess right now. I really feel like I would feel better about going to take the NCLEX - RN than going to take my instructor created exam. They are sooo tough. I know, that's what nursing school is about, but I need a 74 on this final to pass the final semester and I am utterly scared to death. I've studied and studied & studied some more but just when I've finished content that makes me feel like "I've got this" I find stuff that makes me think WTH?!?!? anyway, I really think I'll do OK, but thinking that about 3 tests this semester is exactly what put me in the position to need a 74 on the final to pass :-/

Good luck. You can do it! Mine is at 8 and I will be done when you start. I need a 55 to pass. This is it, and we will be done by lunch!

Good luck...make sure you get plenty of sleep. It is just as important as studying!

This is great advice.

I know it sound ridiculous, but try to relax. I went into my final needing a 95 to get an A in my class and thereby graduate with a perfect 4.0. With that clearly out of reach, I just relaxed and chilled out before my test. I played some xbox, played my bass guitar, watched a movie with my kids, etc. I walked into my test without a care in the world and sat down to do my best...and scored a 95.

You can do it. Go get em champ.

how did it go???
