Hi! I'm take the NCLEX in about a week and a half and have been using the Lippincott review book and have been wondering if anyone else has had success with this book. It seems to be the run of the mill review book, but I'm not sure what it really compares to. I've been hearing a lot about Saunders and feel I should've gone with that. Anyhow, I'm really nervous about this exam! I did really well on the Hesi exit exam, and I hear that it's a good indicator of how I'll do. I don't buy into that, though. I feel like I was more relaxed, which contributed to my success, knowing it didn't really count against me or gaining a license. That being said, I know my weakness is exam anxiety. Of course, the unknown is terrifying. Thank you for any words of advice and encouragement!

I purchased it and it is more topic-based, so if youre really weak in a certain subject this book is great. but topic wise i.e. health promotion and maintenance etc it sucks but kaplan prepares well for that. but wiht this said, if you have been getting more than 60-70 on those exams at the back of the book *the comprehensive* you should be set.
