Hey guys, I am new to this site and it is sooo helpful! I wish I would have found it earlier!

But anyway I am hopefully about to graduate nursing school (practical) in a month and I am trying to get ready to take the NCLEX-PN so I have a couple of questions for you guys!

-What type of study guide book would you recommend buying? I went to books a million today and there were so many choices I could not seem to figure out which one to buy. Any suggestions?

-Do those study guide books actually help?

-How long would you wait after graduating to take the test? I am thinking about only waiting 2 weeks. I feel like the longer I wait the more I will forget!

-How much studying do you guys actually do? A few hours, several days, weeks non stop? I am the type of person that retains more information from hearing it rather than actually sitting down to study so I really dont want to over do it!

Well I am sure I will have more questions but thats it for now!

Thanks in advance for reading this and for your help!!!
