June 2009 Philippine Nursing Licensure Exam: Are you Ready?

In less than a month from now (specifically on June 6 and 7, 2009), thousands of Nursing graduates from various parts of the Philippines will again gather in different Regional Testing Centers nationwide to take the June 2009 Philippine Nursing Licensure Exam (PNLE). I'm guessing that it would be the largest number of board exam takers in the history of Philippine board exams since only 39,455 or 44.51% out of 88,649 examinees of the previous PNLE last November of 2008 passed. Most of those 40, 000+ who did not able to make it in November will most probably be taking the exam again this June together with the thousands of the new nursing graduates. My question to every examinee now then is: Are you ready?

Here are some helpful tips from bloggers across the web on how to make it successful in this endeavor of yours:

In your preparation:

• Physical preparations such as hiking on weekends and indulging into sports like basketball and volleyball, surely would help keep reviewees physically fit and alert.
  
• Never memorize symbols and formulas, remember them. Commit to your memory not just the symbols in a formula, but include, as well, its importance and what each parameter and variable denotes.
• Review courses teach reviewees how to get ready not just mentally but spiritually and physically too. Spiritual readiness involves prayer. Pray, that no matter what the outcome would be, you'd stay strong. That God may grantthe gift of knowledge to understand every question, is something reviewees should never forget to pray for.

• Learn your subjects and what you should focus more on.
• Take it easy. Don’t pressure yourself from any expectations. Just relax. Keep a clear mind. And study hard

• Study starts on day one. At the end of each day read over the notes for the topics that you have discussed. Do not try to learn them, simply read them through and make sure that you understand what is being said.
• Learning naturally comes after reading and understanding. Ask questions about certain topics that you do not understand. Don’t let the day pass you by and leave it unanswered. It is a good habit to start studying on day one rather than cramming. It will most likely cause you to have mental block if you’re forcing yourself to remember what you are studying immediately.
• Try not to study on your own. Look for a study partner so that both of you shall benefit from improved understanding of different topic. Remember, two heads are better than one.
• Don’t overdo it! Try to study 30 to 45 minutes and then find an activity that you can do for 15 minutes in between study periods. For example: you can watch TV, do some stretching, watch your favorite DVDs, do something to take away the boredom that’s settling in your mind. Your no. 1 enemy is boredom. Try to overcome it. Your brain needs to reset, and besides the first 30 to 45 minutes is the maximum time you can study with efficiency.
• Simply do your best; you cannot do more than that.

During the exam:

• Do proper shading. Just a one-direction stroke of about 4-5 strokes will suffice as long as the whole box is shaded. Not too light and not too dark or you might make a hole in your answer sheet. If you have sweaty palms, it is recommended that you bring a small towel.
• Avoid erasures as much as possible. Use a Staedtler eraser.
• Use a chinese menthol stick. If you are sleepy, apply it on your face just beside the eyes. It will keep you awake and focused.
• Wear something red. It's a lucky charm according to Fengshui experts. A red handkerchief will do.
