Hello all,
Ive been doing questions from the lippincott question and answer book and was wondering from different people's experiences how the lippincott questions compare to the actual nclex questions? I know that Kaplan questions are harder than nclex questions and Saunders are easier, so just wondering about lippincott?

Never really touched on Lippincott since i find a few answers questionable.

I used lipincott. For me it was not similar to the NCLEX questions. Saunders and Exam Cram were more similar in my experience. But for the sake of having a variety of questions I still answered it coz you never really know what will appear in the exam.

I graduated from Kaplan, and the questions ARE Lipincott, lol....Lipincott is a higher level of thinking :) Saunders is easy, almost a little too easy for me, but stick with Lipincott, Saunders, and try to find another type of question book just to see different wording.

I love my Lippincott Q&A book. It breaks everything up by sections. I don't think the questions are hard, but I do think they are harder than Saunders. Saunders is good for content, but Lippincott has more challenging questions. Sometimes Lippincott almost has to much information, and the book can be very detailed. I have found myself questioning some of the rationales but for the most part, lippincott is great.
Thank you so much, this helps a lot! What do you mean the questions are lippincott? So you think nclex questions are similar to the lippincott ones?
Thank you so much!! So you felt confident enough to go into the nclex with lippincott questions? Or did you do other questions from another source too! I hope that you did we'll on your nclex!!
