Does anyone have any ideas for NCLEX-RN review tips? I know all sorts of different programs exist, but which one(s) would you guys recommend?

In my opinion everyone is different and learns and retains information differently.

Many people rely on Saunders 5th (with CD) or 6th Edition (with online access code)

LaCharity - Prioritization Delegation and Assignment

Kaplan Review Courses w/Qbanks and Question Trainer

Hurst Review

Be sure to get the 25 page and 35 page study guides of the AllNurses forum to assist as well!

Those are just a few of the more commonly named resources I see

This all depends on how you learn. If you need test taking strategy, do Kaplan, If you need content review, Hurst and Saunders seem to be the resources of choice. Personally, I did both Kaplan and Saunders and passed first time.

With most of these, there are a lot of practice questions and that seems to be the key for a lot of people. The other key is to identify your weaknesses as quickly as possible and focus on those areas. All of these reviews are pretty good at helping with that.

Best of luck to you!!

I did Kaplan and it worked well for me. I passed the first time in 75. Good luck picking the one that works best for you!
