VERY DISCOURAGED

I graduated from nursing school in 2006 and have been practicing in Canada but am planning on moving to the states as my fiance is there. Long story short, I have to write my NCLEX but an feeling very discouraged. This exam is nothing like the Canadian nursing exam and I am VERY nervous about failing. It took me a long time to get my paperwork ready to get the authorization to test and do not wish to repeat the whole process again. I haev gone through the Princeton review book :cracking the NCLEX-rn and I find it helpful in that it tells you the gist of what you need to know.. (e.g. focus on skin breakdown and burns for the integumentary system), but after reading all these posts, I feel as if that will not be enough. I also have the Kaplan book which gives you strategies to answer the questions and has tons of exam sytle question with rationales but I am not sure if that will be enough. I haev also looked at many sites on line and done the NCLEX style questions as well as done the questions from the princeton book. I am really second guessing myself.. b/c I haev alot at stake.. I NEED to pass this exam.. any words of encouragement??

I think the best thing to do is practice practice questions and read the rationale. Yes it is different from the CRNE but with determination you can do it although it is harder for a foreign nurse to pass it is not impossible.

Good luck

very discouraged, do lots and lots of questions and read their rationales even if you got it right. use saunders 4th edition also and do the questions on the disc. and utilize flash cards.

must be discouraging, but the NCLEX isnt impossible to pass. focus on the rationales and dont overload yourself dont do more than 150 questions/day
