NCLEX assistance


Hi everyone,
I am new here. I'm planning to take my boards in June. Can anyone suggest any books or study aids to pass the NCLEX-RN? Thanks.

One of my professors suggested taking roughly 3000 questions prior to taking the NCLEX - mainly so you can get used to the way the questions are worded, and how to answer the questions. I passed the NCLEX and got my license this week, mostly by doing the review questions in review books and the CD-ROMs included in those review books. A good review book is Kaplan, of course; also Saunder's Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN Examination by Silvestri, I also have a couple from Mosby and one from Davis. The Saunder's review book is a good one to start with - it's a fairly thick book and has many questions via CD-ROM. Good luck!

Also, before I forget - positive attitude helps! If you go in thinking you can do it, more than likely you will!
