Hello friends,
I am an internationally graduated nurse.. have moved to Canada on immigration and preparing for nclex which is due in 3 weeks.
till now I have done
1.Hurst review in demand once and planning to review again in last week.
2. i have solved few questions from nclex 3500 around 700-800. average score is between 60-70
3 i have read med surg part from saunders.
4 i have done few questions from saunder's around 500 average 60-70 score
5. kaplan strategies from 2014-15 edition
6. I have done around 10 chapters from PDA book scoring average 50-60 % very low score was even in 40's.
i am following this blog since long but after reading all those post i m concerned if i am on right track. Peads, Pharamacology and Obs and gyn is my weak point.. but I did a mistake by not reviewing it first from saunders and now i dont have time to read that in detail although i have reviewed same topics with hurst. I am also concerned that i have not practiced enough questions. moreover, i doubt the difficulty level of 3500 Nclex rn.. i am not sure i should continue with same software or i should try questions from some where else.. I am all lost need your advice
reply would be appriciated i m waiting for advice

The Saunder's NCLEX-RN question bank is usually easier than Kaplan/Hurst most people score 80-90 in saunders and Kaplan/Hurst it's usually 65-75%, at least for my classmates including myself.
As you review these questions it is very important to read and understand the rationale for the correct answer. 3 weeks is more than enough time to review and make a positive change.
