Has anyone practiced with the online NCLEX 3500 institutional version and taken the NCLEX? Is it anything helpful? I'm mainly using it to study the rationales but I'm hoping that its been helpful to others that have the test. I'm also using Saunders 4th edition practice in the same way. Working on Kaplan to but I just want to make sure that I'm not wasting my time studying from the wrong unhelpful resources.
Any advice from those who have taken it which study resource to use that really helped them for the test???
THANKS SO MUCH FOR ANY AND ALL INPUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Any study resource, if used diligently, is going to be useful for passing the test.

This is just my opinion and how I am preparing for nclex.
I read Saunders and use Nclex 3500 as another source for questions. I believe that sticking to only a few sources is great, but just sticking to the questions that coincide with the book that you are using only gives you confirmation that you are understanding and retaining the source you are reading from. Doing questions from another source on the same content will expose you to other questions and build your confidence for nclex. These two sources combined compliment each other. Good luck.
