depends. nobody knows what questions you will get anyway. some people study like for a year but still failed and some like a week or two or even didn't even study w/c some thinks it's suicide but passed...
if you're comfortable taking it asap or prepare for it a bit longer then choose your path...
The sooner you take your exam from nursing school, the better. Therefore, 5 weeks is a great time period. I graduated in May 2010, but I had my nieces all summer so studying was difficult. Long story short, they went back home to VA on Sunday, August 22 and my exam was scheduled for August 27. In those 5 days, I did some intense studying, Kaplan questions, ATI with rationales and now I am awaiting my results. The computer cut off at 75 questions, of course I wasnt prepared for that! But I will let you know. I would recommend that you study by topic and the areas with the highest percentages like Management of Care, Pharmacologic and Parenteral Therapies. Look at the breakdown and go from there.

I graduated 2wks ago and received my ATT earlier this week. I just ordered study guides that'll be here next week. I haven;t scheduled my test yet. I'm think sometime the first full week of October. Is that long enough time to prepare or should I go with 6wks? Thanks!!
