What helped me was the CD in the back of my book and the chapter challenges. Many will have practice Questions, also If you have a NCLEX book I like to follow along in that book and take the questions off of that CD and book for the areas were studing in class.

Relax, take a deep breath and trust your brain. I had a teacher once who pointed out that when I "corrected" my answer I usually changed from the correct one to the incorrect one. He told me to do the above and trust my "educated guess". If you read the chapter, and the question, you can find that you have run into that senario at least once in your career, so you have the answer. You just need to trust it. Good luck!
