NCLEx-RN study buddy testing MARCH 2010

Published

Hi I am just wondering if someone likes to be my study buddy.I am from California,I will be taking by march and it will be my 3rd time.It's so hard for me to sit and study again I need motivation.

Hello pinksunflower,

If it helps you, you can throw in a few NCLEX questions. We can all discuss why some answers are better than others. Does that help? You can start posting questions here if you'd like.

Well good luck.Same here its my fourth time I will be taking it on March 30.I took it on that day bec. I dont want to take it on April 1 bec I know it will be a different text plan and I heard it would be harder. So be positive and saunders is actually a great and best reviewer and if you feel that you are ready, go for it.Bec its only you who can gauge yourself. :)

What books did you use at first? I am from Florida and at least for us everyone who does the Kaplan review passes the exam. Try it if you havent.

Good luck to all the March NCLEX takers! I was wondering, do any of you have the Prioritization and Delegation book by LaCharity? That is an amazing book. It is all prioritizing and delegating questions with great rationales. I was anal and did over 5000+ questions and did the whole LaCharity book. I think that it really helped me succeed on my test last week, passed! Get the book and you will not be disappointed.

I graduated 10 years ago and am planning to just take the NCLEX this year. Is there info an what or how NCLEX is planning to change the test? Do you know when it will take into effect. I must admit its difficult to remember all the content. How long have you been studying?

I graduated Dec 2009. The Nclex

exam changes April 1st &will include sounds

like heart & breath sounds. I am studying every

spare moment I have! Taking next week off from

work to go over everything. 10years is a long time

I would find a local who nursing student to review content

with you, read as much as you can and Kaplan helped

me, so far all my peers have passed first time.

Good luck. :)

Exam cram is great...I used the CD and the exam is just like NCLEX. The questions depends on your weaknesses and the exam stops at a certain time and you are graded. The grades will tell you if you fail, pass, above average or excellent. Exam cram is pretty good too.

thank you so much for your input. i want ask if you already took the nclex & did you prepare with exam cram.

this is my second time taking it & i have just less than 4 weeks left, i'm trying to study the content & do some questions on daily basis, but it is really too hard to stick with a scheduled studying, having kids &family.

so i'm kind of confused between reviewing both kaplan book & exam cram book( both books are thick enough) more than 500 pages & i want have a chance to at least work on more than 1500 questions until my exam date even though i know that is not enough, but i'm not good at content at all.

i'm so desperate to get to the right direction.:confused:

thank you all for sharing your experience& caring for others.

god bless you all & good luck to you all.
