Though I am not an RN student, the Cliffs Test Prep book is excellent for the NCLEX-RN review, as is the Saunders Review for the NCLEX. I hope that helped. :)

I personally used NCLEX-RN (also comes in PN) Made Incredibly Easy, and loved it.

Its up to you whether or not you attend a live review session. If you think you need it, I would attend one. We had one included at the end of our semester that we had to attend- and it was horrible. This is why I say its up to you. I know that review didnt help me at all, but some are good. I'm just not sure which..

you can do it on your own though- just do lots of practice questions, review rationales, and just review!

The night before- DONT STUDY! Relax, go to bed early, get up early, eat good breakfast, DONT STUDY, and drive to the test site.

And dont panic if you dont know a question. Take a deep breath, look down for a minute, then back up at the question.

Eliminate the 2 obvious wrong answers. Then look at the 2 you have left. Which is MORE correct? This is the way to do it!

Good Luck! :nurse:

thank you for all those tips you said..im taking it next month and i'm also into the live review already. i enrolled just this morning. the medspub review center. is it good? i wanna be in a live review class coz i graduated from nursing school last year and i really have this feeling that i need to take like a refresher review that's why i decided to enroll in this live review.

I won't graduate until May'06 but....I am going to use Saunders & follow Suzanne's advice.....She has helped so many people to pass & thats good enough for me!I have used Saunders all throught school as a study guide & that has worked great.Good luck w/whatever method you choose.:)
