I apologize if there's a sticky or somewhere else here. I just got back from vacation and am still fried, but need to start really studying as my test is Sep 10th.
I've heard there are free NCLEX questions on line, but I'm not sure if what I'm googling is reliable. Is there a list somewhere of these. I have info for the 89.00 for 7 weeks and 49.00 for 3 weeks, at this point I'm not sure the 89.00 is worth it since I'm already at 6 weeks. It's the learningext.com from NCSBN anybody familiar with that?
I've just heard the more practice q's especially online the better
TIA

Hi,
You really need to join http://quizlet.com/
This is a really great website to study your materials and its free! Its so great! You can invite all of your friends in your class to be in your group. Its like Facebook but for school. You can make flashcards and other study materials and you can share it with everyone. I love it. I can also find other nursing study guides from other students from other schools. Im telling you try it. They have tons of NClex reviews on there.
Also you should go to Barns and Noble bookstore online and the textbooks there are half the price and also go to www.Alibris.com. I found 3 text books for $22.00 brand new and if I bought it anywhere else it would have been $150.00. I saved soo much with this these websites. Use the ISBN #s to find them also with the title too.
I hope this will help others too.
Hey here is a website that I have that has the complete Nclex Review:

You saved like $65.00. Though at Alibris, There were cheaper prices in the used books in the $90's plus you can use the coupon code and get 10% off you total purchase. So you can save more too. If its just a text book you should by used as long as its in good condition.
