best NCLEX-RN REVIEW BOOKS

[labrador4122]

KAPLAN COMPLETE LIVE LECTURE COURSE WAS MY MAIN STUDY FOR MY NCLEX-RN. I PASSED THE FIRST TIME WITH 75Q AND I THOUGHT I FAILED FOR SURE... BUT I DIDN'T!!

In addition to kaplan, I also reviewed these books:

1. Hesi nclex-rn review (reviews all important & most commonly tested topics on the nclex!)
   
2. Kaplan strategies for the nclex 07-08 (teaches how to break down the question and eliminate untill you get the correct A)
   
3. NCLEX-RN review by ALICE STEIN (the questions are very very challenging at the end of the book, did not read book)
   
4. Listened to HELEN FEUER live lecture CD's + did their practice questions... (not a book, but was helpful)
   
5. Flashcards for nclex-rn (small book of questions, I had it with me everywhere I went)

I studied for 3 months because I wanted to make sure I did everything to pass the first time around. The test is way too expensive for me to be taking it more than once. Specially here in FL.

I suggest studying for at least 5 hours everyday, no matter what the day is. Schedule your study time, and don't make other plans during your study time.

Good luck everyone! do your best!

studying really helpts a lot.

My friend who failed has not changed one bit. She is still meeting friends for lunch, and found a job working at a home goods store.

She doesn't have any kids, and just lives with her husband.

we all have responsabilities, I have a baby, I have a husband, I had a job working as an assistant while I was studying for boards. And I did it.

I gave up a lot, I hardly spent time with my husband, I didn't go to the mall or movies... nothing that I concider fun... I spent every minute I could studying. The only days that I took off was when I went to work because I would come home tired.

while the baby slept during the day and night I would study.

sometimes when I could I would drop the baby off at my mom's and I would go to the kaplan center and stay there untill I met my daily "quota" of questions or reading.

I also made a check list.

I am very excited, my friend passed boards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a brand new RN friend!!!!!!!!! and she will be working with me very soon!!!!!!!
