hi everyone,
i'm retaking my nclex rn next week. i wanted to know if someone had any particular advice???
i really want to pass this time. i attended to a strategies class, completed the kaplan q bank, and i am currently working with saunders q and a and the nscbn.
thank you all in advance!

I would recommend taking a deep breath and approaching this exam just like the Q bank. Remember the strategies that you learned with Kaplan and do not panic. Instead of studying content, I went over all of the incorrect questions in the Q-bank and studied the rationales. Most important to stay calm and know that you can do it!!!

First of let almighty God help you pass NCLEX this time, the only thing i noticed for candidates taking this exam is having "an extreme anxiety", this also includes me.And to challenge this barrier is if we can able to controll our anxiety in that particular time. I think we can controll by letting our mind have enough time to stabilize(i.e like taking two days rest before the exam and taking deep breathe during the exam etc....). and second is be confident on what you already having.

I agree that you should relax the day or two before your exam. You can focus more and understand what the question is asking if your calm.

Do question trainer 6 & 7 and read their rationales.
