I did about 1500 during last semester of school because we were suppose to do 3K questions in order to graduate. A month before the exam the first time around I did about 3000 total. Now my test is in one week I have done 6756 as of today. But number is not an issue, as long as you read ALL the rationales on your practice tests. I have been doing the nclex 3500 my tests have been between 75%-85%.

Hello. I am new to 'allnurses' as of today. I am getting ready to start 4th semester. Good luck to you!!!! Will you please let me know how the NCLEX went and what you felt about it and what book you would recommend for me to get to study since you will be taking it soon? I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks so much!
If you have a BAM or B&N around you. Start looking at the nursing section and see what books are easier for you to study with. Each person is different, but definitely get the

I did well over 3000 during my NCLEX review course and then after that I probably did an additional 1000-2000 questions, but after awhile I lost track. Good luck on your test!

did around a 1000-1500. Passed with 75. BUT learned the content in and out, its application, and prioritization strategies. All three are interlinked more than you can imagine.
