How I PASSED NCLEX second time!

29 Posts

Hi everyone, I am now officially a registered nurse! After taking the exam the first time and failed, I decided I cannot make this mistake again. When I found out my result, after my first nclex, I decided I needed a break off of studying and destressed myself. After a week of break, I went to the book store and tried to find nclex books that would help (now that I know nclex style questions). Below are the books and tools I find useful. Hope these books and tools will help you as well. Good luck!!

* Prioritization, Delegation, and Assignment: Practice Exercises for Medical-Surgical Nursing by Linda LaCharity PhD RN, Candice K. Kumagai RN MSN, and Barbara Bartz RN MN CCRN (Paperback - Dec 5, 2005)

( Remember to read the rationales and know the content of each question).

*Strategies for Alternate Item Formats on the NCLEX-RN® Exam by Linda Anne Silvestri MSN RN and Yazmin Mojica MSN/MPH MA RN CNS (Paperback - Feb 23, 2007)

(This book helped me a lot! Make sure to read the rationales).

*I aso used "random facts throwing," from this (Allnurses) website." You can find this under Nclex discussion forum. I read from page 1 to the last page. Make sure you ultized this forum and take good notes, for that the information is very very useful for nclex!
