Re: When to start preparing
The day you have your 1st nursing exam. I used Nclex prep books all through school. Most are broke down into body systems...so if I had a neuro test coming up I would do Neuro Nclex questions as part of my preparing for the exam.
Every semester my school had us complete an NClex journal where we had to do X amount of questions and could not turn them in unless we scored better than 80%.
I was lucky, by the time school ended I had done thousands and thousands of Nclex style of questions, I took Nclex in less than an hour knowing I had passed.
