I am considering purchasing an NCLEX review app on my iPhone but there are SO many choices and some of them are $30. Does anyone have any input as to which is the best, or their favorite, before I invest? I'm also planning on purchasing the Saunders review book as part of my study plan, as well as taking some kind of review course.

In my opinion NCLEX mastery. Questions are like the exam great rationales. UWORLD also has an app but it's a monthly subscription for $50. Hope you choose what's right for you and do you own research
Thank you! That one was high on my list, it's just so difficult to decide when everyone is trying to see you something. I will definitely continue to research on my own as well.

I say go for nclex mastery. I have it and done all 1300. I plan to take them again before my test on the 24th. It's helped me tremendously with answering questions. I suggest going to their facebook page and reading reviews. That's what I did before I bought it.

NCLEX mastery for sure. I also did qbank for kaplan, hurst, and ATI. I passed the nclex with 75 questions about 1 month ago and felt NCLEX mastery app questions was very similar to the test. The test even had a similar question to the app which was about ABO blood transfusion and having to pick the incorrect blood type. My advice is to do as much practice questions as possible and read the rationale.
Saunders will also help as it will outline the important things you need to know. I read the whole book before I did my qbanks. I craiglisted my book in Orange County California if you're interested.

I used nclex mastery app exam cram and Lippincott's Q&A Review. My scores were 60-70 with the app. I did every question and test in the app! If I got a question wrong I took a screen shot with my phone and reviewed it again. I started to focus more on the doing questionsand reading rationale rather than the content and it helped. I passed in 75. Good luck!
