best way to review all the content

[lilygood]

Hey guys

I am just curious to know how everyone is planning to study all the content that was covered in the nursing school. I know answering as many questions as possible is a good way but does anyone else has any other idea. what about prioritization and delegation, are there any good books out there that explains these topics very clearly. any feedback will be greatly appreciated..best of luck to all those who are about to give their NCLEX soon.....

I have several materials. Kaplan, Saunders, Made Easy. I started with Kaplan reading the book in its entirety. Now, I am reading Saunders. They say Suzanne's Plan is good which involves only studying from Saunders. I also like Lippincott 3500 CD.

Hope this helps

What I did to study the content was that I had CDs from the Helen Feuer Nursing Review and listened to them on my way to work, during lunch time and on the way home, with my comprehensive review book adding notes as I read that helped me to remember significant points. When I got home, I would do about 400 questions (yes, I was really obsessive). I would focus on one subject a week with reading and listening (e.g. med surg one week, peds the next), but answer any questions. Helen Feuer also had pharmacology CDs, so, I made sure that I listened to one a day, and made sure that I answered medication questions as well as did 20 math problems a day. I did pass with minimum, so, I guess something went right...

Best of luck to you. It is overwhelming, no matter how you slice it.

Hi,

You do not need to study they entire content of nursing school. I just took it and passed with 75 and hardly studied and here is how i did it...

Use saunders CD and go under "client Needs" the four categories under it are the test plan for NCLEX just do one section for a couple of days and then move on to the next.

i found for the content part that the hurst review was very beneficial. she breaks it down so it is easier to learn, however she does assume that you at least know the basics to begin with. i particularly found her fluid and electrolyes lectures helpful.
