Hi Sumandeep! You have a lot of books. Did you really read them all? That's great. I used HESI NCLEX reviewer and Saunders myself. I really like Saunders because of the test questions and tips they gave... Focus more on how to eliminate answers. Make sure you time yourself and do the test in the accompanied CD. Then, understand why the answer is this and not that. Read the reason on the reviewer as to why it's the best answer to that question. It'll help you focus and understand more rather than just guessing. Study for 6-8 hours a day, no more than that. Do at least 200 a day for 5-6 days a week. Then, relax on the 7th day. Be sure that when you study, you actually study and not on your phone or etc. Focus. You'll pass!

Good luck! :nurse:

Hi penny1987...thanks ,I actually did only Hurst video for content.I listen all lecture 3 times throughly.Doing questions now.I have Kaplan q trainers,Nscbn,hurst q review.So Doing Kaplan now .Good Luck!!!

1 vote for Hurst review. They are good. I used them and pass the second time few days ago. What I did was I watched Hurst videos, and do what they told me to do. I make sure I know their package word by word. I did their NCLEX training 120 questions and Mock Nclex 120 questions (i think). Because I know the package so I can rationalize question and pick the right answer base on knowledge I got from the package.

For example: lets say u hear a word "Cushing Syndrome" what come to your mind? You can memorize "Up Up Up Down Up" for "hyperglycemia, Hypertension, Hypernatremia, HypoKalemia, Hypervolemia". But if you dont know the causes, or the "Why" of it, I dont think you fully understand and may have a chance to miss a question.

***What come to my mind is "steroid, there are 4 funtions of steroid, so its too much then what happen? so what kinda S&S pt will have base on those messed up funtions. What can I do for them? what med they have? Simple SE of those med...? what treatment pt will receive? complications of those treatments?"

These questions will pop up in your mind if you study the package well. Base on these you will find the right choice out of 4.

For me, doing many questions is not as affective as knowing why this option is wrong or not necessary at this time.
