Help, help, help, please

I am struggling with the study for my nclex rn, I feel like i'm all over the place and can't seem to find where to begin. Every time I start somewhere it seems I get pulled to another area. is there any advice on a structured plan of study?

Kaplan has online options that are more affordable. If possible just purchase their question bank. Keep taking mini practice tests of 20 questions from the bank so you can get through them fast and really read the explanations. Look at the categories you're weak in and take a bunch of mini tests only in that category. Then start again and attack your next weak area. Two days before the test take a full length set of questions. Read the explanation but don't panic at the score the questions are all above the passing line. The day before the test do something fun and don't study. Then eat a good breakfast take a deep breath and go get your RN!

Borrow some study books from friends and focus on the chapter tests and your weaker category of test questions

Be careful trying to share materials it's technically illegal, violates international copyright law and violates the end user agreement. If caught Kaplan and others do prosecute and it's not difficult to get caught.

To use the study materials? Didn't know! Will certainly delete the above haha thanks!

Thanks you guys for all your comments. I will try the more affordable option and maybe a study partner too.

NCSBN Learning Next is online and low cost relative to other programs. You can borrow books at your library. Seek assistance from your school of nursing (they have a vested interest in you passing the NCLEX the first attempt). There are many legal low cost methods

Purchase an NCLEX-RN review book or locate one in your local library. Read it from cover to cover, answer all the questions in it, wash rinse repeat for other books you may find.

Try to answer anywhere from 75-265 questions a day because that's the expectation of questions you may get on the exam.

Having a test question bank like NCLEX 4000 is nice to have around. I have the software, I love it.

Focus on studying 1-2 medication classes a day to keep abreast of pharmacology but not a lot of emphasis on it since NCLEX seem to have decrease percentage of importance of pharm for recent exam
