Hi I am in Texas , moved here jan06 from Scotland has taken all this time to get work authorization ss number etc, waiting for the all clear from the texas licensing board to sit my nclex. All my experience is in Midwifery in the u.k . Anyone here from the u.k sat Nclex what did you think, I am using kaplan, saunders princeton for studying getting between 60-70% consistantly correct is this ok? Just dont want to fail and put off working even longer!

Any tips or advice thanks

Our advice thats og and I is get the cd rom from sauders start doing the questions seta of ten at the time and then review the anwsers have a look at what areas u are falling down on . Start building up the number of test questions untill you are doing sets of fifty then week or so befor the exam do a good few sets of 75 or more questions to get use to consentrating for that length of time.

This is the method we used we both past first time not bad bearing in mind that either of us have done any general nursing for years.

Good luck and remember it is the nursing anwser u are looking for.

Sorry about the tipos hope u get my drift

That is what I did and then did loads of questions on my weak areas...i ended up with a lot of priority questions when I did it, cant remember much more as it was a long time ago now!!! hehe!

Yep me too I just did practice questions after practice questions. I did a 100 at a time and brought my practice score up from the 60's to the late 80's. OGP said if you consistantly get more than 75 you will pass.

www.learningext.com was great for me but I didnt need the 13 weeks I paid for just the smaller time would have done
