Hello All,
I just graduated nursing school this dec 2010. I plan on beginning my nclex studying in the next 2 weeks. I have tried to come up with study plans but cannot set one up. If you have taken the exam and you don't mind, can you please share your study plan and tips. Thanks a lot.

Our instructor for a class forced us to make a study plan, twice. I graduate later this week and now I have a definite idea of how to study made into a calendar so i can check things off. I am going through all of LaCharity even if I've gone through a lot of it with this class. I am also aiming at 150 questions a day, it is what Kaplan has suggested as the "you don't really want to do more than that" number. I will be taking Kaplan in January so that will also be in my study plan. After Kaplan is done I will continue doing 150 questions as a mix from Kaplan QBank, QTrainers, and other resources I have on my computer from the disks. I will also be reviewing 3-4 chapters in Saunders, and by review I mean go through all the questions behind the chapter and if I get less than an 89% I read the entire chapter.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

If you have trouble coming up with a plan, just start with Chapter 1 of your review book and trudge forward, marking your progress off on a calendar. Most people make their appointment first, then use a calendar to map out their preparation. Good luck.
