This is a question for people who have used multiple NCLEX review CDs.

In your oppinion, which one provides the most challenging/difficult questions?

I am pretty dissatisfied with Mosby, it seems too easy.

Thanks!

One person's piece of cake is another person's Mt. Everest. Look at as many different resources as possible. The "too easy" ones are still testing your knowledge of the basics.

Try Kaplan as well they seem to have questions that make you think. I also bought the Exam Cram book/CD.

Prentice Hall is difficult but far from the actual exam. NCLEX 4000 and Saunders are closer but with moderate difficulty.

I used a variety of them. See, variety is the best because you don't know at all what you'll get on the test. If you chose a good quality variety of questions you can't go wrong. Do 60q in 60min. every day...if you score 65% and above (consistently) you are ;)pretty good to go...

i would say prentice hall is the hardest it really felt harder then NCLEX i reccomend you use it only as a supplemental tool to saunders. prentice hall can really help you hone your nursing/test taking skills, but it can also decrease your confidence, confuse, and may even throw you off track. i think that saunders had the biggest impact on my NCLEX exam
