I was thinking to create my own study log. Since you have started, I will follow your daily log to motivate each other.

My study materials:

Saunders Comprehensive Review 5th (read one time, did some questions)

Saunders Q & A Review 5th (doing questions by contents as daily basis)

PDA (finished chapter 1-18, case study 1-14, stop at case 15 due to difficulty)

Hurst Videos (watched a few of them)

NCLEX 4000 (haven't done any yet)

Since English is my second launguage, I take longer time to fully comprehend what I read. I really don't have confidence to take exam. I have been procrastinating my exam date ever since I got ATT. Finally I set up on 10/30. Wish I will be ready by then.

Let's study together and motivate each other.

8/24: Did Saunders ethical/legal 45 questions and read rationale

Did Saunders mental health 25 questions and read rationale

Thanks for the timely update your daily log. It makes me want to study.

8/25: Did Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing 26 questions from Saunder, and read content.

8/26: Read Mental Health Disorders charter content, will do questions later on.

I don't like study Psychiatric. I don't know why Saunders put a lot questions on this content. Is this important for NCLEX exam?

I like the way you study, studying one subject on different materials.

I usually study from PM till 3:00 AM or later,wake up around 11:00 am. I should change it, since my exam will be 8:00 am.

Every portion are equally important for the NCLEX-RN exam.I really hate psychiatric like you but it contains about 6-12% of the test.I am not a morning person and i study well in the afternoon and evening time.That is the reason i chose the afternoon time to test.I also wake up late in the morning at around 11:00 AM as i go to bed around 2-3 AM.Thank you so much!! You are also the reason that i am motivated more to study.

Let's keep going as we are almost there.
