Hurst - Which part helped you most?

[ixchel]

If you've taken Hurst and passed the NCLEX (RN), what part of Hurst helped you answer questions the most - the content or the test strategies?

Through a series of frustrating events, I've scheduled my NCLEX for a date far sooner than I've been able to really cement the core content into my brain. I'm feeling like the test taking strategies may do very well to help fill in the gaps of knowledge.

But frankly, I'm terrified and feeling quite frustrated. Thankfully my job has a plan B for if I don't pass, which gives me all the time in the world to get it right the second time. I really hope it doesn't come to that, though.

Congratulations!!! and good luck in your new career. I have a question for you. Even though most of the questions were not in Hurst, do you still think it is worth buying the course? Thanks

It's a complicated question. The content really is amazing and will only build to help me be better at nursing. That said, every NCLEX is going to be different. My test in particular, no, hurst wasn't the "make me or break me" factor. But having taken it and not actually having time to learn the core content, I'm thanking my lucky stars for the questions I did have. If I had had different questions, like ones Commuter had I'm sure, I'd feel differently. They wrap up their lectures with a "how to pass" section that gives absolutely wonderful test taking strategies that were pretty helpful. But even those, some helped for a few questions, but ultimately I got all I needed in nursing school. Go figure, right? ?
