Hi guys,

I am a foreign educated graduate and I am trying to prepare for nclex. I have my att and am ready to go. I have started some aspects of the study but I am actually looking for a buddy to study with. I work 4 odd days a week in my country but I am ready to give it my 200%. Please reply to this post if you are in a similar situation or anyone who feels that studying together with me would help us mutually.

I'm a foreign graduate, I graduated in 2002 in Germany. We moved to the US in 2005 and I took my NCLEX RN 2 weeks ago and I passed on the first try. I used Hurst online review, Saunders, the free Kaplan Nclex prep tests, and LaCharity. I highly recommend every single one of them. Took me about 3 months of intense (at least 100 questions per day, 2-6 h of studying every day, 2000 questions alone the week before the NCLEX) studying, but I made it! I was out of nursing for almost 7 years, but I focused everything I had on passing. I did it and so can you! Good luck!

Hello docs I am from the uk. So first of all congratulations and thank you for your encouragement. but must admit i feel pressured and i know you can relate to it because we probably had similar curiculam considering we come from europe.

I cannot study 6 hours each day because i am working as well. however the 4 days i am off i am willing to study for 6 hours. i have been practicing so i am current and also i graduated in 2008 so not that long. currently i am working on core issues ie saunders with the cd. I do 2-3 chapters each day when i am off and i do the cd relating those chapters. the days i cant manage to review i try and listen to the lectures. i guess i might have to do it ovet maybe 4 or 5 mnth period.
