This module taught me a lot about different test taking strategies. I have always known it is not good to cram information in the night before or even the day before the test. In this module it advises students to not study or pick up material related to the NCLEX the day before the exam, and certainly not the morning of. This strategy does make sense for this exam because it is so significant that one cannot possibly learn all the necessary information and skills to become a nurse in one day. Before this I thought that it would be okay to review the day before however, it says to do something relaxing, go to a place you like and find some inner peace before taking the exam. I know that for myself this is a very valuable piece of information because my test taking anxiety tends to take over.
