OP, it depends on the question.

If you need additional questions, I found the Saunders flash cards, NCSBN, and Lippincott more structured like the NCLEX, in addition to Kaplan.

I also utilized LaCharity...that helped me "get" the NCLEX.

The key is to understand the categories in NCLEX, no matter the length of the question. You need to know WHAT the question is asking you to do...Is it safe care, health promotion, psychological, physiological?? Knowing what the question is asking you, and choosing that answer is the KEY. Review rationales, then go to the source. Don't skip on reviewing anything you are having issues with...if it's any of the four components of NCLEX-Safe and Effective Care, Health Promotion, Psychological Integrity, Physiological Integrity-review those components to "get" what the questions are asking you.

Keep reviewing the questions...the more complex, the better. The question are to make you THINK.

OP, how are your percentages in the review???

Make sure they are above 60%...the higher the percentage, the chances increase in passing.

Good Luck!

SATA is treated as a true/false question...what the question is asking you, and what answers that match up with the question itself.

I suggest that you continue to go over SATA questions, review rationales, correct and missed.

If you are having difficulty with them, LaCharity and Saunders have very good SATA questions. Make sure you review those as well. You can always search for SATA questions to review as well.
