Is there any truth to the fact that exam cram questions are written similarly to NCLEX? Anyone who already took nclex think so??
I just dont want to spend any more money unless i really need to, please help thanks!!

It isn't the money you are spending that should be your concern. It is the result of your efforts. Go with what you have now and save Exam Cram for the unlikely event that you fail, if you can not afford it. Good luck.

Hey there, i failed back on 6/10. I bought Exam Cram and am almost finished with it.
I can't release certain info of course. But I agree the questions are similiar to the exam.
My advice, buy the book. Worth the money. Also, buy LaCharity's book!!
Good Luck!
thanks, was this the cd you used ? or a book i'm confused.
I used the Exam Cram book with 1200+ questions. It came with a CD but i have not opened it. I book was so easy to carry around in my purse.
good luck

I agree exam cram is worth the price I think its similar to the nclex as well...I don't like the cd to much because it has some errors. Like Lisa said the lacharity book is awesome as well. Good luck. God bless!
PS when I bought my exam cram book I had one of those borders coupons and the book came up to 23 something which i think is worth the price.

Exam cram written similar to NCLEX? I don't know about that. I felt the questions in exam cram didn't require as much critical thinking to answer than the questions in the NCLEX. Maybe, it's because I was more familiar with the topics in exam cram while the NCLEX throws everything at you. I felt that NCLEX4000 came closer to the format of the the NCLEX, except that it had minimum priority/delgation questions, which the NCLEX is known for. That is when LaCharity becomes handy.
