In one to two months I will be taking my exam, this thread is an online log to track my progress.I figure if I do it on my own, it will be most likely to FAIL. So Im here, taking all the risks. I know its hard to do it on my own, so I need some encouragements from everyone here (if possible).
So far, I gathered all the resources I need:
Books: LaCharity, Saunders, Kaplan and (to purchase) NCSBN online review.
Place; I mostly can focus on a not-too-noisy places, Library is one of my fave.
Lastly, to everyone who will be taking taking there exam this coming May or June,
I wish you all luck!
In the end, our strong faith to ourselves and the Divine will make us all reach success!

hey June,
sorry to hear that, What is a petition form by the way?..
Why don't u try in other state?.. Here in new york u can test unlimited and you don't need IELTS/TOEFL just a credential verification from CGFNS...
Well, you can raise this question in a thread so that you can hear from other people's experience.Good luck!
Been off the review for awhile, life stuff (5month old son)...Now im back!
I decided to revise my study plan abit...
I will study by body systems and then answer questions in that section afterwards.. Im feeling alot more confident this time around, Im determined to make this second time my last time!
Material being used:
Saunders 5th edition(Content)
Hurst Review (Content)
PDA
Saunders CD (Questions)
Mosbys Flashcards(Questions)
Nclex 4000 (Question)
Hurst Questions (6 tests)
Kaplan Qbank
I SCHEDULED MY TEST YESTERDAY( SCHEDULED TO TAKE IT ON MY GRANDMOTHERS BDAY) IM HOPING SHE WILL SEND ME LUCK FROM ABOVE..
i will try to update more often...#Countdownbegins!
Im also looking into getting a skype account to join the study session, but until then if anyone has a iphone and has the facetime capability, pm me your number and we can study that way.
SPEAK POSITIVITY AMONGST YOURSELVES, IT CAN SPEAK IT INTO EXISTANCE!
I WILL PASS THE NCLEX EXAM..( i SAY THIS A MILLION TIMES A DAY LOL)
Now that pinning & graduation are done, paperwork is all signed & I'll be mailing that off tomorrow and not-so-patiently waiting for my ATT!
I have been using Saunders (4th ed) and the 6-week study plan made from the CD. currently 1/2 way through week 4, trying to do 3 chapters per day, then the questions at the end of each.
Also, I've been answering questions on PrepU's NCLEX-RN 10,000, varied subjects and # of questions, but I have been 80-90% on each of those smaller quizzes which I am happy with.
I have a great review book also from a 5-day review course offered by a prof. @ my school. I've been reviewing the corresponding info for whichever chapters I am doing with Saunders.
I have Mosby's Comprehensive as well, but I'm not a huge fan of the layout of content review, so I'm saving that for the questions when I finish Saunders.
Hoping to take my exam in about a month, but really anytime before July 4th I'd be okay with.
im having issues too I didn't know it takes long to renew passport I thought I have an option to pay extra to expedite it. The last time I renew it it only took days
For me, its really HELPFUL. I haven't finish it yet but so far its been a great help and of convenience (if you are, most of the time) in your computer.
