How to prepare for NCLEX in 3 weeks

flourish03, BSN, RN · Jul 7, 2017

what is your study schedule? how many questions are you doing a day? what are you doing differently to study this time? how long have you been studying?

I test in about 3 weeks as well and I'm using UWorld, Kaplan (+ NCSBN) as well. maybe I can help or at least provide some insight.

my study schedule is 75 questions a day on UWorld and the purple Saunders book, but i will be complete with UWrorld next week

I will be using Kaplan selfpace review my goal is to complete 150 questions on Kaplan and 25 questions from the priority and delegation book Im also using audio, and I put together a book of things i might have forgotten, my day starts early

Wake-up 0400-0600 listen to review Audios/and tag pages in my saunders book that I didnt fully understand in the audios

0900-1300 get kids situated then go to the library and complete 150 questions, im usually there for about four hours (reviewing rationales)

1300-1830 taking care kids, cooking etc whatever need to be done at home (if Im working that day the schedule is completely different)

1900-2130 questions and saunders book

If I decide to stay up late I will go over lab values, diets, postioning, and pharmacaology

when Im working my schedule is completely different, but I will be going PRN at my fulltime job so i can focus on a 10-12hour study day

wow, it sounds like you've got a solid schedule going. how are you scoring on your practice tests?

Dee_King · Jul 10, 2017

On Uworld I'm scoring around

52-56 on the test I haven't did the assessments yet

Kaplan I will start this weekend

I'm about the same 50-60s on UWorld. we can hold each other accountable and share tips if you would like

I test on 7/24! so in two weeks...and I'm doing Uworld, haven't done assessments yet but on my tests i'm scoring high 50's and low 60's too. I really hope that is not bad... but would like see how you all are studying as well? I'm also dong Hurst Review for content.

Dee_King · Jul 10, 2017

Hurst is really good for content....I'm using uworld, Saunders, MK audios, Kaplan Qbank once I complete Uworld and the priority and delegation book

I only used UWorld! I did 50-100 Q's a day (900/1900 left in my q bank) for exactly 14 days and passed nclex the next day.
