So, here is the problem! I am a senior nursing student who is graduating in MAY!!!! wooohooo!!! But here is the down fall. In order for me to graduate I have to pass the Kaplan Exit Exam. I know I can I just know I can! Here is the thing though when I go to sleep at night that is all I dream about. I wake up nervous like today is the day I have to take it. I am nervous though to be completely honest because me and Kaplan aren't the best of friends but like I said I know I can do it. I just need some tips on how I can be successful with passing this Exam! If you have taken it before and been successful PLEASE HELP!!!! Thank you kindly!

Are you this stressed out about regular exams? This is just another exam- really! It sounds like you are letting nerves take over, and that's not a good thing. Look up resources for test anxiety- there are some that will pop up on a google search that are from various universities.
Also, please don't be misleading in your title- this isn't truly urgent or something that needs to be taken care of now.

9 exclamation points, and 6 "W," I was about to send EMS to your home.
Seriously though,
Meditation, deep breathing, walks or active exercising to burn off the anxiety. Spend some time doing something fun. Instead of obsessing about one test, spend a little time taking care of you.
Sorry everyone for the misleading title:yes:

lol. I honestly didn't mean for my title to upset anyone! Thank you! I will definitely try those out!

Usually I do not but since this is standing in the way of me graduating I believe that, that is where all of the anxiety is coming from. Thank you for your advice! Honestly, I didn't think my title would be that bad. I didn't meant to offend anyone here but I needed some replies. I didn't think for my first one anyone would comment anyway. Lesson learned wont be misleading again. For me, this did need to be taken care of now, especially if I want to graduate. Again, thank you! I will do that!
But it actually is a big deal. :)

And yet, it took you several weeks to return to the post.
lol actually no it did not. It took me several weeks to respond. Help me understand why you have to be so rude.

I don't find that post rude AT ALL. She actually makes a very good point. You made a dramatic plea for help "NOWWWWWW," and subsequently received a couple of timely supportive responses. If anyone was rude, it was you-by virtue of your 16 day delay to post a response to these posters who actually tried to help you "nowwwwww."
