I finally decided to make an account after coming to this site almost everyday, for the past several weeks, to research nursing topics. It has helped me greatly and Thank you all for you contributions!
I recently graduated from an ADN program and I am soooo happy and grateful that I was actually able to complete it because it was the MOST challenging experience I have EVER gone through in my entire life. I have to admit, it has been extremely hard to get back to the studying for the NCLEX. It's like my brain rejects the information every time I try to pick up a book and do questions... my brain says: "oh, no not you again." hahaha.... ugh! Never the less, I know I have to prepare for this beast which brings me to this post. I was thinking... Why not challenge some of you who plan on taking the NCLEX late? March/early April 2011? What do you guys think? Maybe we can message each other here by the end of the day and share whether or not you met your daily goal. For example, I have 2 books (lacharity and Davis Q&A) and I plan on doing 100-150 questions a day until my test date. Even if I do 20-25 in increments throughout the day, the point is to do them daily. Then I will come here and share how my day went. That way we can motivate each other through this excruciating journey.
Whaddayasay huh?!?.... I plan on starting this Sunday... Let me know if any of you guys are interested, I would love to motivate and be motivated by you guys... We need to get together and tame this beast! Lets do this!!!!
ok, i understand you need to pass everybody wants to pass, my advice: dont overwhelm yourselves with too much text books. 1 or 2 is ok... keep read it over and over again build a memory retention.. then as soon as you are done, you can move on to next Q&a book..
hi kinkes, dont rely on ur own understanding,failing nclex doesn't mean u cant ever pass it.left to me u don't need studing partner cos u have studing partners ones u have nurses.com.
this is a place where ur voice can be heard, where one reach one thru' out the world.try to read people write up,comment,advise,study style,books dt helped them, key point and pneumonics which i called shortcut to success.this will help u to maximize ur time.
if there is anything whatsoever u need to know just sign in and ask people, i know u will surely get an answer.
goodluck!!!!!!
Thanks you so much ,
I will try study over and over again ! I will have my exam again on May 27 , I will keep on fighting

Yes your scores sound good! At least for the nclex 4000 (i didn't use the Saunders book to study). I just took my exam yesterday the nclex 3500/4000 really helped me out. Just keep studying the basics (lab values, patho, drugs and infection control) and you should be fine!
I'll be taking mine on Monday, Aprill 11. WHEW. I have finished Saunder's Compre, LaCharity, Kaplan strategies and Kaplan QT1-7. Now, just trying to browse for more infos here and answering Saunder's cd. Anything else you might advice?
Goodluck to all of us who'll be taking the exam! :) God be with us!
