hi guys! i would like to share with you guys that i recently passed my nclex! i got 265 questions and sat there for the whole 6 hours!! (whew!) i had 7 minutes left on my last number! it was horrible! i went home feeling i failed the test because i had to rush the last 100 items because i only had an hour left finish the test! didn't do the pearsonvue trick because i didn't want to scare myself to death. me and my husband waited and paid $8 to view the unofficial results and luckily i passed. it was the best feeling in the world! i cried so much because it was unexpected!
Now i want to share with you guys the materials i used during my review.. i signed up for hurst last year and i think hurst is good when it comes to refreshing your nursing knowledge but they def lack in questions. i also enrolled myself in Kaplan and their qbank really helped me!! i think their questions were similar to the test and i also enrolled in NCSBN --- i know a lot of people like ncsbn but in my opinion its not the best but it also helped me. saunders and nclex3500 also helped me master my SATA questions. i would answer 100-150 questions everyday and the only day i take a break is sunday because i offer this day to the Lord. whenever i get bored i would use nclex apps on my phone and answer 20-50 questions. writing all the rationale and reading them all over again really helped me!!!! i think you guys should try this too because its really effective. the only bad thing about it is that it is time consuming but def worth it! you guys are probably thinking i used almost all the review material there is haha but no regrets! all the stuff i mentioned here helped me pass.
and most importantly pray and ask God to guide you during your review, your test and after you pass your test. do not forget to pray and ask for his guidance!--- this is the most important!!
stay positive and good luck to everyone!!!!! :)

Congrats! I just recently passed too Indeed seeing that one word we've been fervently praying & working hard for (makes the $8 fee very negligible ) is one the best moments ever!
True that!!! It was the best feeling in the world!! Congrats to you too!!!
