hai,did u listened all the cd's?is that good lecture?did u studied all the contents frm feuer?is tht helpful?did u used any other books for questions?or u just did the fuer questions?share ur thoughts....
did u used any other books for contents & questions?how was the feuer lecture?is that helpful for ur nclex-rn exam?
Hey! Yeah. I took the NCLEX a few times. I took kaplan...but for me that did not help (for a couple of my friends it did though...everyone is different i guess!!). I used Lippincott's Q&A Review (ninth edition). I found the questions in this book were very similar to the questions given to me on the NCLEX (same content) except, the NCLEX is much harder. In my opinion the NCLEX questions were easy, the answers were hard...if that makes any sense. There were always at least two completely right answers and my problem was choosing the "best" one. I used another book for content, i would read a section and then answer the questions on the same topic in the other book. I cant remember the name of the book though! as soon as i find it in my house ill post it.
I also did the feuer nursing review. This is everything I did for the NCLEX test that i passed on. also, i stayed calm! we know the information!!!!! just cant let those nerves get to you!

You just can't look at what topics people got in their exam as their exam can and usually is a lot different to what your exam will be. The best thing to do is practice questions and keep practising them and get used to how it asks questions. read the rationale which will point you in the right direction if you got the question wrong or confirm you got the information right
Thank you 4 ur valuable advice.i'm reviewing all topics.which one is good kaplan, ncsbn,saunders,exam cram by pearson education?i'm also having feauer audio .i think saunder's Q&A 4th cd is good?

what do you mean the feuer nursing review? you mean the feuer mp3 only?
the review is held only in NYC and Miami, FL. so i bought the 28cds, study booklets, homework booklets, and test booklets. the cds are the actual lecture given as if you were really there. i listened to them everyday on my way to and from work. also at home.
the web is: http://www.f-n-r.net/
it is a little expensive ($350).
if you are going to the actual class it comes to $499.00- for early sign up; $524.00- for regular sign up (1 week before)
good luck to you who is taking the NCLEX on Dec 28th! My best advise is to just stay calm!!...and dont feel too bad if you walk out of there feeling like you failed. I think everyone feels that way when they leave that test! Let us know the outcome! =)
