I plan on taking first week in July too. Really starting up on the studying now. I have Mosby's comprehensive review book + CD, Saunders book + CD, and PrepU online testing bank that I plan to use for my content review and practice questions. I also have Pharm Memory notecards just a little pocket flip book I try to peek at when I have a few minutes.

And we have 5 days worth of testing prep with school over the next 2 weeks - hoping those will help guide me too!

I took HESI comprehensive for graduation about a month ago, got an 883 - pretty good (my best score to date). I'm thinking of reviewing content over the next two weeks in addition to my prep classes, and then start with daily questions. My goal is 75 a day... we'll see how this goes!

GL to everyone :)

Hiiiiiiii everyone! :)

I re-applied for my 2nd take last month and still waiting for my eligibility, if everything went smoothly, (hopefully) i will be retaking it this july.

When are you taking your exam?

• 1st or 2nd week of july.

What are you using for study?

• I have a Kaplan Course Book, Nclex 400, Saunders CD and other stuffs that the good people from here, sent me.

How long have you been preparing?

• Honestly, i haven't been seriously preparing for it yet. I get overwhelmed about how much information i need to memorize and understand. Anyone have an advice on how to study? :/ Its been 2 years since i graduated so I'm lacking on content. :|

What are you focusing on for the next few weeks?

• I will probably start on nutrition and the basics first, then gradually move to harder topics. Welpz, i hope this works out for me. :)

My prayers goes out for everyone.ü

Hi all! I'm planning to take my exam this summer. We can do this! I'm using saunders nclex rn review. I really don't like to read but I have to push myself. I do questions a lot more than reading content review. How does the hurst process go? Is it tips to pass or another content review? I heard this was cheaper than the other reviews.

When are you taking your exam? Hopefully the week of the 23rd :-DWhat are you using for study? I have PDA, NCLEX Cram (I've been slacking on this one. I think I'm on Exam #3 now.), Kaplan's Strategies, Practice, & Review (finished!), and I'll be purchasing the newest edition of Saunders Comp.)How long have you been preparing? I think for about 3 weeks.What are you focusing on for the next few weeks? Finishing the NCLEX Exam Cram, finishing the readings on the syllabus for the summer semester (this is why I haven't been able to spend much time on Exam Cram), and finish the PDA within a week or two, and then start Saunders shortly after. If I have time, I will practice the NCLEX 3000 that I found on this site. Omg I'm so nervous about these next 8 weeks!
