Prepping for 2nd attempt nclex rn

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Hi guys..just want to ask your opinion on my study resources.. Planning to take my 2nd attempt on or before april 2014. My first attempt was a year ago and i haven't read anything nursing related stuff since then..2013 was not a very good year for me but i am ready to conquer my 2nd attempt. Anyways will start with my review after new years. I am planning to use the saunders book as my main source alongside the hurst printed lectures that i still got. For Qbanks i have the nclex 3500 and a bunch of nclex qbank apps on my iPhone i also got exam cram and la charity. Will do 100qs a day and will gradually increase the number weekly. And i am planning to sign up michael linares review videos as well but still not sure about it.I have all the time til april so i hope it is enough to pass the exam i even declined a job offer so i could focus. So what do u guys think?! Do u think my resources are enough? Any more tips that u can share? Please do..would really appreciate your help.

Yea! I haven't gotten my ATT yet, but I know as soon as that comes the nerves will start kicking in again! Mostly right now I wish I could do a CAT style HESI or something to see where I stand or something because I feel like I've made a lot of progress and I want to know what's overkill and what I should spend more time on haha. So foolishly I've been feeling antsy to take the exam haha!

I actually found this site Cram.com that really helped me brush up on my lab values, cranial nerves ect. It's basically a flashcard site, but it has a memorize mode and a little game mode, and you can get it on your smartphone! For example this (Lab Values (Game) Flashcards - Cram.com) is the set of flashcards I made for lab values.

Hope that helps!

Thanks will try to check that one out i'm looking for a resource to make flashcards.

I prefer Hurst for studying

There is an app you can download on your phone that is by Kaplan and it's free! It's called something like Kaplan mini qbank. It has 125 questions on it. It's great!
