Hi! I'm also a foreign trained nurse. :) I also failed my 1st exam last dec 2010. Now, I'm preparing for my 2nd try on March 19. I'm using Saunders Comprehensive Review 5th ed too, Kaplan Strategies 2011-2012, Nclex-rn 3500, 4000, Exam Cram 2nd edition, and LaCharity PDA 2nd edition, and I'm also planning to get the ncsbn qbank 3 weeks before my test date.

By the way, when are you testing again? And how do you find that Lippincott's Alternate Format Book? Is it helpful? Thanks and Good luck to us! Hopefully, we can pass it this time! :cheers:

Mwakenya, you have the right tools, i did not find NCSBN questions to be useful but everyone is different. most important thing is understanding the rationals ans the core content, that's what iam working on myself. i have also found NCLEX-RN Review by MARLENE HURST to be very useful. all the best ,you can do.

Have you tried ncsbn question bank? I purchased 3 wk course and those questions were really helpful.

They also provide review sessions. Good luck with your next test!! :cheers:
