Too many resources can be bad if you just flip from one to another then to another and don't really buckle down and learn each section as you should. I recommend picking one resource and going from front to back with all the effort you can muster. If you then have time, take a second reference and do the same. At some point, you need to be taking assessment tests to find the areas you are still weak in and concentrating there. You might also consider using Suzanne's plan which is explained in the stickies at the top of this forum. Many people pass using her plan. Organized way to approach the task. Good luck.

In my thinking, it is the worst thing that one can do for passing this exam, whether RN or the PN exam.
The rationales are the most important part of it, and too many sources only makes things confusing.
I would stick with only one, at the most two. But no more.
Thanks everyone and it does become confusing cuz diffrent books have diffrent things in them that the other dont have .Thanks everyone :heartbeat
