Nursing Students out there

Yep they are.. If you still have some missing information, test banks help you figure out which ones they are..
and they also help arrange the information in your mind while answering the questions.. They are not a waste at all! If you still have time, solve some problems to see how comfortable you are with the material Good luck!

totally agree.
it is helpful to test your knowledge before the test, and re-learn where you lack on. and so when the test come, you're ready to ace them

I agree too.
It will be not exactly same as real test, but you can get an idea for what they focus on.

CatnessK, I am also a nursing student, and I think that test banks are beneficial because taking practice tests help us work on recalling the information we studied. Good luck, you can do this!

They're VERY helpful. Highly recommended.

Test banks help highlight the important info you really should know. Really helps me focus.

I think so! It shows what areas need improvement.

Yes, but do not ever completely rely on them, especially if you have a shrewd teach who is apt to changing the exam questions.

Test banks can be a big help, but like others have said - do not completely rely on them. For undergrad nursing NCLEX prep books can also be a huge help. Good luck! 

i think so. To help with anxiety, get a good night sleep and eat breakfast. When you get to school try to avoid people because their anxiety can rub off on you. If you can't avoid people then avoid talking about the test or having last minute discussions about it. Instead, talk about something else. Joke around, a good laugh always help me get over my anxiety. I like to put on my earphones and listen to some music (whichever type of music that helps you relax). Just know that you studied and prepared for this test the best you could and you got this. Also, try not to change your answers because your first answer is probably right. I had a problem with this in the beginning because I was over thinking the questions. Always look what the question is asking you first. Good luck!

Test banks can give you ideas about where you are struggling with knowledge so you can focus further studies.  My instructors do not use any test bank questions but I still find them helpful to see where I am weakest.

just test bank and put less pressure on yourself that that I did.

Test banks really help but they are no substitute to studing ur book. When I was in nursing school. i studied my book and review test bank last. that way i already got the concepts down
