Hi All,
I just took the NCLEX and passed with 265 questions! It feels like such a relief to not have to worry about this exam. This was my second time taking it, so I am very grateful for the passing grade. This is what worked for me to pass:
1. Reading Saunders. I went to Staples and had the book broken down into smaller sections and binded so it was easier to carry around and read. I read two to three sections a day. Highlighted stuff that I needed to know and then typed up notes.
2. Kaplan Qbank: did every question and reviewed right an wrong answers.
3. Made note cards of things to remember: lab values, hyperkalemia, hypoparathyroid, etc...and reviewed and studied this
4. Make sure you know standard, contact, airborne, and droplet precautions.
5. Review Growth and Development.

Congratulations! And thank you for sharing your success strategies.
Another thing: Review the NCLEX-RN thread which is on this site. It's a PDF with a lot of info that was helpful.
Hope this helps!
