August2008Support Group!!!

I received my eligibility letter from CA board of nursing 4 days ago,haven't registered yet in personvue. Anyway, I plan to take it (NCLEX-RN) on August!! And I'm so excited!! To all August NCLEX takers, let's share our thoughts,feelings, and knowledge, as well as review strategies towards passing nclex! I believe having that kind of relationship with others will help us pass the exam!!

GOD BLESS TO ALL OF US!! ^_^

hi. new ir and will take the nclex this late august. in my opinion, there are only 4 books you need to concentrate on:

1. bible - you will find God's promises to you and for your future. to be specific, read philippians 4:6 and jeremiah 29:11

2. saunders comprehensive - serves as your foundation

3. kaplan strategies for rn - tips for test-taking strategies

4. prioritization, delegation and assignment - book by le charity (not sure of the spelling) info to delegate effectively

if you still have more time you can also read saunders q&a, 250 questions of item formats (more sata), just answer questions daily.

my philosophy: the more mistakes you make in practice exams the more you will learn and remember.

god bless us all!!

Hi there! I'm not sure if anyone is doing her test taking plan. One thing for sure here,most are Saunders fan.LOL I believe that's the main tool of her review. Get lots of good feedback and high passing rate, too! that's the last step of my review plan,suzzanes plan..LOL :chuckle

I know that there's no other review materials except saunders you should be using, and I can't do that NOW (i dunno i'm that kind of a reviwer), after all other books and tons of practice questions I'll take some "meditation" for my tired brain and breathe lots of fresh air ,feed it up w/Oxygen. Then try her test taking plan. So by that time, I'm gonna rid off all other materials and focus on her review plan.

Yeah,I'm excited too!!!!!!!:yeah:

Hello

I was first planning to take it in July but I had to changed mine to August for Suzanne plan. May I join this August group?

I graduated in May and have been taking it easy since.... Have not received my ATT yet but according to my school we will probably be able to sit for the exam in mid July. However i may just schedule it for later in August. Whats your take on this? Is that pushing it too far? Ive heard that the sooner you take it out of school the better. I also cannot afford a review course so i will just read my Saunders book which i found helpful throughout nursing school and i may purchase some questions online. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Good luck to all and congrats to those who have passed.

:phi everyone..

me too, i have received my second eligibility last may, and i havent registered to pearsonvue yet..

im planning to retake it on august, i hope i can.. but the thing is, my ielts was scheduled on july 12.. so i have to review and practice for the two tests at the same time.. although ielts is easier to practice.. im still bothered by the fact that my focus is being divided into two..hahaha.. im just starting to be paranoid..

so anyway, il do my best to be ready for the 2nd week of august and if not, il take it on the last week..

im using lots of practice cds..kaplan trainer, saunders4th and alternate format, davis for pda, ncsbn, mosby and lippincot..(i guess its really helpful to come across lots of practice qs before you take, bec for my first take, i only practiced around 800 qs and i failed!)

and for the book, saunders4th for any clarification and refresher, fryes3000bullets, and lacharity.. anyone here who knows where i can get feuer audio review? i have one but its 2002 edition..

well.. i hope all of us will pass.. bec the feeling of failing ur firstake is downright depressing!!

anyone here who wants to form a study group?? im from the phil..:yeah:

goodluck to evryone!!
