Hi guys! First off I want to congratulate all the May 2010 graduates!!!! I wish you the best of luck on the boards and on your future career! We did it! :flwrhrts: I wanted to know how everyone else is prepping for the upcoming Nclex-RN, I plan on taking it on June 30th. First off here's how i study: I've been doing 200-300 questions/day using Saunders. Once I finish this book, I plan on using Mosby/ATI/Nclex 4000. For content I use Lippincott's Manual of Nursing practice and the ATI DVD series: usually, i watch the DVD in the morning while I exercise(treadmill!!! :redbeathe), then do the questions. I do them on study mode, and review the rationales (from both the right and wrong questions), and answering strategies. I take note of the topics I need to review and then head to Lippincotts. Since I started studying a week ago, my results have been in the 65-80% range. Are these results ok?? I plan on revisiting the topics that i didn't do as well. I also plan on reviewing standard precautions, labs, F&E and meds- how do you study meds? I thought I was pretty good at it, but saunders is definitely kicking my ass! How are you guys studying? Any tips would be welcome, please let me know how i should tweak my study!
