Description
Nursing licensure exams like the NCLEX-PN® and the NCLEX-RN® can be daunting. Some NCLEX test takers even experience test anxiety that keeps them from performing up to their full potential. Therefore, high-stakes test takers not only need to learn to think analytically when completing the NCLEX, they also need to nurture a winning psychological mindset. High-stakes test takers who have mastered the psychological side of testing know how to remain motivated, responsible, confident, and resilient when they prepare for and actually take high-stakes licensure exams.
Chapters 1-4 introduce nursing students to NCLEX test preparation resources that are available on the National Council of State Boards of Nursing website (www.NCSBN.org). These NCSBN® resources provide an excellent orientation to the NCLEX exams (i.e., the NCLEX-RN and the NCLEX-PN). Chapters 1-4 also teach nursing students how to best prepare for the NCLEX, including how to acquire effective study skills and how to develop a winning strategy for answering complex questions. Finally, chapters 1-4 introduce nursing students to the computer-adaptive NCLEX so that they know what to expect from this type of computer-based assessment.
Chapters 5-9 address the psychological side of passing high-stakes nursing exams. For example, nursing students will become acquainted with the 16 essential high-stakes testing competencies that increase their odds of passing healthcare licensure exams. These competencies form the foundation of a successful “Test Mastery Mindset†that allows nursing students to exhibit the highest levels of motivation, responsibility, confidence, and resilience required to pass the competitive NCLEX exams. Purchasers of this e-book will actually receive their own personalized Test Mastery Advantage® Profile Report as a special bonus offer. This report allows nursing students to better gauge how they compare to a high-potential reference group in relation to their own test taking competencies and test mastery styles.
Students will also learn how to better self-manage two key personality traits that are associated with stronger test preparation and test taking capabilities. They will also become more aware of how test anxiety could lead to substandard exam performance. In addition, strategies for mastering test anxiety are provided so that nursing licensure candidates address this risk exposure before they take the NCLEX.
Nursing students are also reminded that they want to remain cheat-free at all times, even when they feel insecure about their ability to pass the NCLEX. The ultimate goal of Chapters 5-9 is to ensure that nursing licensure candidates are more mindful of their own test mastery competencies and personality traits. This heightened awareness allows nursing students to better align their competencies, personality traits, and coping skills with NCLEX requirements.
In summary, too many nursing students only focus on studying “harder and smarter†for the NCLEX. These skills are addressed in chapters 1 through 4. However, nursing students also need to learn how to be extremely motivated, responsible, confident, and resilient when they are actually preparing for and taking the NCLEX. Hence, a major key to passing the NCLEX on the first try is to be both “test prepped†in terms of learning all of the required facts and figures that will be on the NCLEX (Chapters 1-4) , and also “test ready†in terms of performing at a high level of confidence when taking the exam (Chapters 5-9). Case studies are presented to help bring these test mastery strategies to life.
