I just finished nursing school and will be taking an NCLEX review course but I also want to find an online question bank that is reasonably priced but will not frustrate me and will truly help me prepare for my NCLEX.
I've heard amazing things about UWorld but they are SO EXPENSIVE for me.
I've heard okay things about NCLEX Mastery and NRSNG Academy, which are both more reasonably priced.
Overall, I'm feeling very frustrated with NCLEX questions. I have a prep book but the rationales are poor and increasing my anxiety. I also don't like the feel of doing questions in a book - I would much rather online. Plus I'd appreciate a program that had in depth rationales but aren't overwhelming. I'd prefer some pictures and diagrams included too.
What do you guys recommend that would be the most useful for the price out of UWorld, NCLEX Mastery, NRSNG Academy, or any other program you may have used?

The common recourse I always recommend is the Priority/Delegation book from LaCharity.
75% of my exam were "Who do you see first?" type of questions. (25% were SATA)
Honestly, no one would ever be 100% ready for NCLEX. My content was really weak and I wasn't scoring the average on uWorld.
My classmate recommended the LaCharity book and enforced that it was mandatory to read the whole book, page by page.
After the book, I did a few NCLEX questions from both uWorld and Kaplan.
Although my content wasn't strong. The questions and strategies just made sense.
I passed at 75.

Would you like a study partner. I am going to take my test the third time and I am the kind of student who could study better in group. So please let me know if you want to study in group. We can share the resources. I have plenty.TIA

Uworld is very good, I felt pretty strong after i did it.
Although i did it with summit college nclex review on YouTube i take notes also, I did each section separately after all mixed them all and did 75 questions a day, then I did wrong questions over.
