How do I study for the nclex?!

[akns25]

Its only Oct 31st and I graduate in December but I am trying to study for my nclex now during my "free" time in school. I am currently taking the kaplan trainer tests and I am failing horribly. I got a 48%, I do not usually do so bad on tests but for some reason these are kicking my butt. I also bought the Saunders book and they gave me a 6 week study guide on the material I need specifically. I read online that Saunders is a lot easier than the nclex so I am not sure if I should even go through it. I can't tell if its how I read the questions or if I really need to go over the material more. I feel pretty overwhelmed and worried that I might not pass the exam the first try! I am hoping to take the exam in January. Any advice? How many hours a day should I study? Should I just keep going over questions? Thank you to anyone who responds!!!

Saunders 5th ed is a must have for content, that book was sent from God as the Holy Bible for nurses :) u need to master the content from Saunders in order to answer Kaplan questions. Kaplan will hurt your feelings if u did not master the content!! Lol, The first two times taking nclex I used ready to pass and nscbn for content and Kaplan for questions, failed first time with 79 and second time with 140, when I tried Saunders, my computer was scared of me that sucka shut off at 75!! My name on the license list the following day and Got my license in 4 days. Don't fear the Nclex, let it fear u!! Good Luck.
