It would be interesting if you took a person (outside of nursing school) and gave them the complete "Made Incredibly Easy" series, could they pass NCLEX by just reading the books?
I have not searched lately but I know that when learning for mnemonics and such to help study or understand a certain concept I have found a few great resources on pinterest! There are a lot of nursing items pinned and stuff that made great study material for me! Not just all crafts and recipes! If you have the time may be work the search!

That single person (not they) could probably get a lot of the questions right, but they might not get all the critical thinking and nursing judgment things. :: you think? ::
That said, the "....Incredibly Easy" series is well-done and many people find it helpful. There are also a number of F&E help posts here in AN you should check out.
I love the "...Made Easy" series. This is what I've been doing - read the textbook (once), read the corresponding "...Made Easy" book, then read the class slides, and it all pools together and has helped me tremendously. I struggled in Fundamentals but now with MedSurg and thanks to the recommendations on here, I bought the MedSurg Made Easy and it has helped me condense and remember the materials much easier.
If there's a caveat, it's this (and I admit I kinda was hoping it would be the case): it doesn't make the topics any easier. It just makes it easier for you to try to grasp/understand the concepts. The chapters are still pretty lengthy and packed full of info, even if they just filtered out all the stuff and focus on what you really need to know, it's still a lot of stuff to know. And as GrnTea alluded to, you still need to "think like a nurse" on your own. Which is why I bought the Prioritization, Delegation & Assignment book.
