there are tons of books and materials available on the market. I personally took the Kaplan review course, and supplemented it with Saunders Q &A review, but lots of people on here have passed using different methods.

The style of the questions from kaplan are very similar to the questions on the nclex. I passed the NCLEX on my first try w/75 questions and attribute it to taking kaplan!
GOod luck!

What works for one person may not work for you. I suggest leafing through some NCLEX reveiw books and finding the one that makes the most sense to you. Read through the random facts thread, lots of great facts and tips there. Also take a look at Suzanne's Plan and see if it is right for you. :loveya: Good luck.

I highly recommend Kaplan and Saunder's. Those were my main two resources. I also used the 250 New Format Question book and the Prioritization, Delegation and Assignment book. Best of luck!

try utilize whatever review materials you have. dnt be so over bombarden with tons of books and in the end you cannot read them all and will only confuse you because other books may differ from the other one. if you manage to passed the cgfns for sure you have a higher chance in passing the nclex-rn exam.
best of luck to you. :loveya:

I suggest refining your prioritization skills. Several test takers suggested this book:
Prioritization, Delegation, and Assignment: Practice Exercises for Medical-Surgical Nursing" Linda LaCharity; Paperback on sale at Amazon for $23.35 so I think it's worth a try since the last time I took the NCLEX there were a lot of prioritizations which I probably got wrong!
