January NCLEX Study Group!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Hi Friends!

I am taking the NCLEX in January. I will graduate from my accelerated BSN program in mid-December, just before Christmas. This is an 11.5 month ABSN program and is make-your-head-spin-fast! :bugeyes:

I am still deciding whether I will take the Hurst Review or the Kaplan Review, but I do have the Saunders 4th Edition NCLEX-RN Comprehensive Review book. It is huge! Honestly, I feel overwhelmed and feel like I do not know where to begin. I will just begin at the beginning! Care to join me on this wild ride?!?! We can encourage one another along the way!:typing

As part of my study program, I want to incorporate exercising at least 20 minutes a day and eating healthier snacks. Grabbing an apple and cheese instead of pepsi and cheetos!:pumpiron:

Let's do this thing!!!!

:yelclap:

Specializes in Neonatal ICU.
Well I took the NCLEX this am. Had 75 questions, mostly SATA, infection control, and prioratization and it only took me 30 minutes or so. Even though I told myself not to do it I tried the PVT and I got the "good" pop-up. So I am going to keep my fingers crossed. They told me at the testing site to check the BON website before paying the quick result fee. So starting tomorrow I will be checking the MA BON!

Congratulations! :yeah:

Did you study especially for SATA questions? Those are my weakness and when I do them on Saunders and NCLEX 3500 I am barely breaking 60%. I'm taking NCLEX on Thursday and I'm afraid my whole exam is going to be SATA.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

How should we really study to be able to beat these SATA questions? It's one of my weaknesses too.

same thing happened with me i was graduated in 2007 and gave nclex in Aug 2008. I was occupied with family problems and college so I was unable to retake it again and start studying well for it. I'm thinking to retake it in next two months. For that I have to study again from starting I guess..Can u please suggest me what are you doing now to study or did u took N-CLEX again???

At the moment I am using sauders. I am also studying at home as I have 2 kids to take care of. When the older is at school I cope better with the younger one and knowing what it is like to study at home mmmm I use half of my time to change tv channels for the little one and then cook and then........ Not easy cos at the end of the day one is exhusted. It is well, with all these, I have made up my mind to pass.

After study, I get to do some questions on lippincott. Hope to do some exam cram or kaplan question later.
