I’m studying my little hear out but I still Feel as if I know nothing and that scares me. Two people I know who have recently (in the last week) taken the NCLEX have said that their exam shut off after 75 questions. So that either means they passed or they bombed big time. I …

Kaplan NCLEX Review
Two people recommended Kalplan NCLEX review to me. I was told it was an excellent book not only with tons of NCLEX question but also with test taking strategy. Yes it’s one am, but it has plagued me all night as to whether I should get it or not. So, here I am, 11 …
Irony
I checked my email faithfully every couple of hours today looking for word from the board of nursing that I can test. No word yet. Ironically, I got a letter from my college telling me that I have met all the requirements for graduation and that I will receive my diploma in four to six …

It’s over
I finished my HESI exit exam about 30 minutes ago. I was so nervous going in. I was shaky and my heart was pounding in my chest. I thought for sure I was going to bomb the damn thing because things were going too well. I did the whole last minute study thing in the …

ONE MORE TO GO!!
Today’s Patient Care Management HESI achievement exam went well. I got surprisingly a 99.99% conversion score and my HESI score was 1215 which is up from the 1187 from my last HESI achievement exam. (Our class average was a 1000)I say surprisingly because the test only had 55 questions and I thought right away “Oh …
