nclex review tips

Published

hi im new here,and i just wanna get tips from you guy, i am reviewing for nclex,i enrolled at kaplan last sat, i planned to take the exam maybe on october or first week of november...im working at the same time,i have saunders, la charity i have them since march and i cant focus studying tem, so hard to focus on my studies,but im really trying so hard, so every night i just read saunders, i dont know if ill be able to finish the book,any tips how to focus, tnx^^

Saunders is good for content review. Kaplan is great because the questions are more NCLEX style. Do the questions for both, and read the rationals as to why each ans. is either correct or wrong.

I complete 50 Saunders CD questions (the "Quiz" version with all questions (Ear, gastro, pharm, renal, etc,etc.etc!!!) and 50 "NCLEX Review Made Easy" questions. The key is 100 questions per day (700 questions a week) and the quick answers to each question whether the answers were right or wrong. I was studying with the Virtual ATI, yet I got tired of the PLETHORA of Pharm questions and the such; I got stuck: how many Pharm questions do I need to know in the form of " the best time to take "some medication that I have NEVER heard of-not even the family name"??? Nuts, right?? So, I'll wing it on my own. I plan to take the NCLEX in late July or early August... Hope this helps :D

Cool, I was reviewing my 5th edition of Saunders , its really helpful and a lot of question, but some of them are easy to answer. I'm just reading whole day cover by cover then answer the question. Plan to buy nclex 4000 this coming august. Goodluck!@! :D:D

Try to find a time to study when your mind is alert. Perhaps you should get up an hour or two earlier. Focus yourself by telling yourself you want to get this done and not have it take up the rest of your life. Good luck.

since im new here in US i dont have friends to study with not like in Philippines i have alot,so maybe ill just do my best to focus on my studies...because im good when im with someone reviewing,hehehe well im trying my saunders and starting to follow the guidelines of kaplan...tnx for ur help... im really having problems with medications,was answering kaplans diagnostic test and 3 consecutive questions are all about meds...lol... goodluck
