does your school offer review courses or are going for self-review?

DOH Book, Fundamentals of Nursing by Mrs.Udan, NCLEX review book for Med Surg (for added interventions) + your school notes. Answer questions and read Rationales.

the lecturers of my school's in-house review suggest that we read NCLEX reviewer books like Saunder's, Mosby's and Lippincot - especially the compilation of NCLEX questions - since the new BON is giving NCLEX-based questions now, unlike the past BON, who were used to giving "subjective" type of questions. for CHN, read Maglaya, scan DOH and IMCI. good luck!

Besides from the books, always remember what you did during your clinical exposures...I heard that the last Dec. NLE was almost based on the actual practice and not all theories.

Haven't heard about this. She was even our lecturer in our exclusive NCLEX RN review class.
