Have you done many practice questions? Like kaplan q bank?

You need a study plan. Saunders online can generate a calendar for you for six weeks. Do the online asssessment 75 questions, the calendar will start you studying from your weakness areas to your strongest. Do 100 plus questions a day, including apps on your phone. Get a note book and write down everything you don't know or never heard of along with rationales, use this as a study guide for the content you are weak in. Review the entire Saunders book. Leave no page unturned because you don't know what content you will get on NCLEX.

I second the Kaplan q bank. There is also a very helpful studyguide located on this website. If you have a smart phone, there are also aps for NCLEX that can be studied on the go.

Commit to it! Spend XX amount of hours every day on studying up until your test date.

You can do it!

Best of luck to you

I bought the learning extension 5 week review. Is it good? I have 5 weeks to go. Any website with most important medications?

My weakest area is pharmacology , any tips for that?

Nomenclatures for your classes are a huge help.

OP, pharmacology may be your weakest area, but failing at 75 questions indicates you were not close to passing in any category....so your study plan needs to be global.

Good luck!

The person above me put it pretty well!

Kaplan questions are good only if you already have a good nursing foundation. Because you failed at 75 q's, you need to reevaluate how much nursing information you know and what you need to learn more of. It sounds like you might need to review what you learned in school, and not just do practice q's like some people have said. I would suggest the Saunders review book. It has lessons and chapters that cover all pertinent material. Gooood luck!!!

Im listening to the audios of feuer. They have really helped to refresh contents that were forgotten ....

Now for questions, in doing ncsbn and kaplan...

Anymore tips?

I would take a look at the CPR (What was beloe, what's near and what's above). And just go on from there.

I disagree with post about "failing with 75 questions means you were not close to passing in any category". My experience is testimony for that.

I've used Davis and it's good.

best wishes!
