I believe that Hurst is the best for content. Marly explains it in a way that makes you remember the content. I also used PDA, which is very very important. I purchased the 3 week course NCSBN and just did the questions (They have about 1100 questions) and viewed the rationale.
Passed with 75Q. In my exam, I found the PDA to be very, very helpful*** NCSBN touched upon some content that was actually in the exam and the questions really did help! Unfortunately, Hurst didn't help me in my exam but it might have been useful to other people.
Good luck! :)
I used Hurst online and definitely credit it to helping me pass NCLEX. I passed the first time with 75 questions.
I used the review, in addition to practice questions from Saunders and NCLEX Mastery app on my phone.
I studied for about 3 weeks. I did the Hurst review with a friend and we would watch the videos and fill in the notes on our own, and then meet and talk everything out that we had done. It helped us both to talk things out, plus the repetition.
I felt like Hurst mainly helped me with testing strategies, not as much content because the content on the NCLEX was so random. But it helped me prepare for how the test thinks and what they want.

Currently studying for the NCLEX and I just purchased Hurst online review. Has anyone on here used it and felt it was a good help to pass the NCLEX?? Also how long did it take to finish the whole review and do the practice questions( I have about 3 weeks ahead of me before the exam). If you used Hurst did you use any other materials with it (i.e PDA LaCharity or Saunders)??
