STEP 1: GET PREPAREDWe’ve seen your bedroom. Your mom snap chatted us a picture(SnapChat Username: Picmonic). We can see it’s not organized(okay, we can’t). But, either way, make sure you prepareeverything for your exam day including:Make sure you have enough gas in your vehicle, or thatyou have a reliable means of transportation.Need your lucky shirt? Can’t take a test without it?Make sure its laid out and ready to go so you’re notspending time trying to find it.Have all registration necessities in order like proper formsof ID. Last thing you want to do is get to the testingcenter and not be able to test!HACKMake sure you have the right ID on exam day!Click here to read an article about what will beaccepted and what won’t be.The more you think ahead, the more smoothly things will go foryou. Your focus and challenge for the day is the NCLEX .Nothing else.PICMONIC.COM6

UNDERSTAND HOW THE NCLEX WORKSYour mission: pass the NCLEX the first time (so you can see the letters “RN”behind your name). It’s a daunting task for sure, but we’re here to give you theedge you need for your big day by addressing some common questions aboutthe exam itself (also, check out the NCSBN web page on ‘The Night Before theExam’).1. How many questions will I get?2. When will my exam end?3. How long do I have for the exam and what about breaks?4. What types of questions should I expect to see?1Q: How many questions will I get?A: 75 - 265We want you to pass with 75 questions but make sure you aren’t going to havean anxiety attack at question 76. Remember the ultimate goal: passing.To pass with 75 questions you will most likely need to answer more difficult andcomplex questions correctly like “Select All That Apply.” Trust us. We hate thosetoo! The key here is to be a master of the content! Picmonic is great at helpingyou remembering all of the gritty details.Don’t freak out on question number 76, or 77. It’s not over. Take a break andgather your head. Sit back in your chair and close your eyes for a moment. Seeyourself as a nurse and once you’ve taken a few deep breaths get back at it.Remember the exam is adaptive so you’ll be given a few less complex questionsfollowed by more difficult ones again until you’ve been determined to be abovethe passing threshold.In 2012, the average number of items (questions) administered per candidatewas around 119 on the NCLEX -RN and 117 on the NCLEX -PN.Reference: NCSBNPICMONIC.COM7

2Q: When will my exam end?A: The exam will end at one of three scenarios:1. Adaptive testing determines you are at a sufficient level to passthe exam in each subject area (using a 95% confidence rule)2. When a maximum of 6 hours of testing is reached, or3. When a maximum of 265 questions have been answered.You’ll need to be at a passing level in EACH subject area. Have you had aninstructor say that the NCLEX exam will find your weaknesses? Well it’s true!Don’t forget to review other subject areas like psychology and obstetrics. Ifyou’re weak in OB/GYN then you’re less likely to get the SATA questions correct and more likely to get more than 75 questions with several less complex OB/GYNquestions.Don’t sweat it. If you don’t knowa question make your best guessand move on.Do not rush! We repeat: DO NOTRUSH! Don’t be worried aboutrunning out of time. Feel free toread a question twice. Spendinganother few seconds to get aquestion correct rather thanguessing and feeling pressuredfor time will likely end in betterresults.Did we say don’t rush? If you run out of time the system will analyze the last 60questions you answered to help determine whether you pass or fail. So put yourbest foot forward on each question.Reference: NCSBNPICMONIC.COM8

3Q: How long do I have for theexam and what about breaks?A: Total length: Up to 6 HoursPer the NCSBN website, you will be given a scheduled break “afterapproximately” two hours followed by another one after three and a half hourshave passed by.Time management is important but it is more important to have a level head. Tomaintain a level head during the exam you should take the breaks!HACK4Breaks take away from your total test time sodon’t spend all day relaxing out there but makesure you take a break!Q: What types of questions should I expect to see?A:1. Multiple Choice (ONLY 4 choices 1,2,3,4)2. Ordered Response (Place the sequence in order)3. Select all that apply4. Fill in the blank (usually math)5. Drag and drop6. Hotspot (place the cursor over the area on thediagram that does the selected action)7. Chart/Exhibit8. Graphic Option9. AudioThere are several different question format types that you should expect to seeon exam day so make sure you thoroughly read the question before answering!Don’t get fooled! We recommend purchasing and practicing with a questionbank before your exam so you get comfortable with each question type.PICMONIC.COM9

SET A GOALPick a week to take your exam and stick to it! After you pick your date workbackwards to create your personalized study plan.Our Study Plan is designed to help you master the content and then reinforce itwith a question bank of your choosing. We’ve estimated this should take youbetween 4 to 6 weeks based on how many hours per day you put in and yourknowledge level. The time is budgeted accordingly based on feedback fromour users. Can you go through it quicker? That’s all on you. Need to miss a day?Life happens. Just adjust and adapt as needed.HACKDon’t procrastinate on taking your exam. Students who waita long time to take board exams after graduating schooloften do worse. The information doesn’t stay fresh in yourbrain. You’ve come so far, just get it done!KNOW YOUR STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSESYou’ve completed or are about to complete nursing school and its possible youhave a few weaknesses. Gather your exit exam score sheets, take a look at yourexam scores or even your course grades. If you know your weak areas beforeyou start studying, you’ll be able to make sure those don’t trip you up on examday.HACKDon’t skip high yield content and “hope” you don’t getquestions about it. You probably will and we want you to staycalm. Besides: There’s probably a picmonic for that.PICMONIC.COM10

ALLOCATE TIMEYour daily study time can vary greatly. Our Study Plan is designed to cover nearlyall areas of nursing, but you may find yourself already a master of certain topics.If this is the case simply skip ahead but use gained time wisely.Our study sessions last anywhere from 30 minutes to justover 3 hours. It’s all about versatility here. Can youstack days on top of each? Absolutely. Should you?Well, that’s on you. If the content is too much, or youfeel burnt out, maybe its time to take a break or call it aday. The main idea is knowing what to expect timecommitment wise and plan ahead. This way, you’re notcramming until 3am the night prior. As with anydeadline, the sooner you begin, the easier time you’llhave.Get sleep. Depriving your body ofneeded sleep and recovery time is detrimentalto any kind of effective studying.PICMONIC.COM11

STEP 2: MASTER THE CONTENTYou’ll want to be a master of the content. Picmonic has a long track record ofhelping students master content for quicker recall. We’re research proven toimprove memory over 330%! Want to know how? Give this article a quick read.We’ve created this Study Plan to walk you through our expansive library ofcontent by selecting and grouping them into smaller digestible chunks.HACKYou’ve probably heard about learning “concepts” andPicmonic is great for helping you keep generalized featuresstraight in your brain. Example: In HYPOthyroidism everythingslows down and you often see weight gain but inHYPERthyroidism everything speeds up and you see weightloss. Sometimes remembering the general idea about adisease or disorder can help you make an educated guess.INCORPORATE PICMONICYou know NCLEX is just around the corner and whether its HESI, Kaplan or ATIthat will serve as your exit exam, you know it doesn’t end there. Although theymay successfully predict your likelihood of passing the NCLEX you want tomake sure you cover everything you possibly can (and that’s where Picmoniccomes in).SO, WHAT IS PICMONIC EXACTLY?Picmonic is an audiovisual learning system that takes textbook information andturns it into unforgettable images and stories that are scientifically proven tomake studying more effective. We call them Picture-Mnemonics.PICMONIC.COM12

We have over 480 Picmonics included just in our NCLEX Study Plan. We’veturned that stack of boring notecards into unforgettable pictures that you will notonly remember longer but actually enjoy learning!Here’s a Picmonic covering Hypoglycemia AssessmentHOW DO I LEARNWITH PICMONICS?It won’t take you long to see thatwe associate words withcharacters. Each word becomespart of a consistent character thatyou can remember as they showup again and again across ourentire learning system.PICMONIC.COM13

As you learn with Picmonic you’ll start visualizing these characters inside eachPicmonic because they interact inside a cohesive story.LETHARGICHYPOGLYCEMIA(Hippo With Glue )

On each Picmonic you’ll encountertwo audio modes: Educational andStory. Educational audio guides youthrough a version of the topic similarto what you would hear in aclassroom or read in a textbook whilealso introducing the charactersrepresented for each attribute. Storyaudio is the part of our learningsystem that allows you to tie togethereach character by listening to a storyabout how the characters interact.EDUCATIONALHACKSTORYBe sure to sound out the characters to yourself to make sureyou understand them. Try to recall these characters andPicmonics each time you are questioned about a topic.You can augment your learning experience utilizing our quiz feature. The quizfeature will remove the characters and cycle you through the Picmonic’sattributes. If you remember the name correctly, you can mark correct orincorrect.HACKOur users self report the most success in retention after using aPicmonic 3-5 times. So make sure you review a specific topicas you study.PICMONIC.COM15

STEP 3: MASTER THE QUESTIONSCONDITION YOURSELF TO ANSWER QUESTIONSAt Picmonic we love pie and to make an amazing pie you need a greatrecipe. Learning how to answer NCLEX questions is no different. If you follow arecipe as you answer questions you’ll be eating the pie you really want. Successpie. There are several different strategies for answering NCLEX style questionsand here’s our recipe for success.Read the question entirely. Read the entire thing! Every bit!You should always read each question. Don’t get into the habit ofskipping ahead because you could miss out on an importantsentence.Ask yourself: Which part of “The Nursing Process” is thisquestion asking me?Assessment, Analysis/Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation orEvaluation. If you aren’t immediately sure, you can rephrase thequestion in your own words.HACKDon’t add to the question. NCLEX doesn’t care aboutpersonal experiences, opinions, etc. Stick to the facts. Addingpersonal experiences to questions will often only get you intotrouble on the NCLEX .Assessment: Make sure you have always gathered all of theassessment data before doing an intervention. Even if the patient will“eventually” be getting said treatment or intervention you must have acomplete assessment before moving ahead.HACKYou can only skip ahead in the nursing process in a few scenarios. Themain one: If I don’t do something now. This patient will be in immediatedanger or face serious health threats. Don’t kill your patients! Example:Your patient is cyanotic and in obvious respiratory distress. Do youcontinue to assess? Nope. You sit them up, give them oxygen, etc. As ageneral rule: Skipping ahead in the nursing process is the wrong answer.PICMONIC.COM16

Find the keywords.Determine the style of the question: Positive or NegativePositive Questions: Ask something that you should DO or is BEST.Look for Keywords: appropriate, most essential, highest priority, safe,therapeutic, accurate, next, first, best, indicated.Negative Questions: Ask what you should AVOID, or NOT DO.Look for Keywords: lowest priority, avoid, unsafe, re-teach, least,inappropriate, atypical, incorrect, contraindicated, false, inconsistent.HACKTruly negative questions asking things like “except” and “allbut” have essentially been eliminated on the NCLEX. Alwaysask yourself “What is this question asking me?”Rule out answers.If you are sure answers are not correct then mark them off of your list ofpossible answer choices.Use Critical ThinkingYou’ll need to use critical thinking to apply the information you’velearned. We’ve included many tips above but you’ll need to thinkabout each answer and then prioritize the answers. Here are somequick tips. Remember:ABC Airway, Breathing,CirculationPrioritize patients based on which one is most critical.Airway. Airway. Airway. Wait. Did we say Airway?The Nursing ProcessNever skip ahead in the nursing process. (read our blurbabove, then read it again)Maslows Hierarchy ofNeedsPrioritize patient based on importance of needs. Apatient without physiological needs like food and water ismore important than one without love. (Sorry guys)HACKAre you stumped? Think you should call the physician?Imagine it’s 3AM on a Friday night. That’s all fine and good .But MAKE SURE you have gathered all of the information priorto calling.PICMONIC.COM17

HAIL MARY!OKAY. YOUʼVE READ THE QUESTION AND YOU HAVE NO IDEA.Here are some hacks to help you improve your odds at well guessing.Find similarities in the answers. Then choose the odd ball.When all else fails this just might help!Example: A nurse is determining which of thefollowing activities would be best for the patient whojust started prednisone therapy.1. Take her daughter to the state fair.2. Begin yoga classes at her gym.3. Painting at home.4. See the latest movie at the theater.HACKEven if you didn’t remember that prednisone causesimmunosuppression and you should avoid crowds. You shouldbe able to figure out that choice 3 involves the least amountof people and also involves her staying at home.HACKYou are sure two answers are likely correct. Ohhh NCLEX why must you make us choose the “most correct” answer? Inthese scenarios you must use critical thinking. Inimplementation questions: the answer is likely the easiest andquickest to implement.HAIPICMONIC.COMLMAR18Y

PRACTICE IT ALL WITH QUESTIONSImagine that the NCLEX is a marathon A marathon of questions. So shouldyou run a marathon without first conditioning? Well duh. You don’t run. You havesomeone carry you! As far as NCLEX goes you’d be crazy not to practice somequestions after we have given you all of these juicy deets.We suggest selecting a practice question bank that allows you to separatequestions into subject areas. You’ll need to practice as many questions aspossible before your exam date and we suggest doing intervals of 50-55questions each day.We think you’d be crazy to practice less than 1,500 questions in addition toPicmonic. If you aren’t killing the questions then you may need to do as many as2,500-3,000 before you’re considered a master.HACKIf you miss a question, quickly review the Picmonic on thetopic to make sure you will remember it next time! You’llknow which section they are and what playlist because wedid the searching and cataloguing for you!When you miss a question (and you will,hotpants) make sure you take the time toreview why you missed it! You’ll be surprisedthat you’ll be able to recall information fasterthan ever with Picmonic but make sure youdon’t get tripped up in other ways. If it isn’ta knowledge deficit you likely need torefine your recipe for success. Get thatrecipe perfect! No one likes burntbrownies.PICMONIC.COM19
