NCLEX 2017-2018 Suggestions on study materials (U-world, Hurst Review, NCSBN review)?

Hi everyone

Does anyone have any suggestions on study materials (U-world, Hurst Review, NCSBN review)?

I had been using U-world only but did not help me on NCLEX. I see people on allnurses.com are using Saunders but I personally think it's too easy compared to the real NCLEX. I personally do not like Kaplan. What other resource materials do you recommend? I do not know anyone who uses NCSBN review but I am thinking about purchasing their 5 week course. Please help. I need to get a job to pay off my school loans. Million thanks!

I used U world and Hurst together ... Im my opinions that was a great combination ... I pass with 100 questions ... good luck ... you got this :)

I used Brilliant Nurse and Prep U Lippincott Passpoint free trial. I passed 10/28/17. I like Prep U because it weight your progress in levels. Level 4 you're on the level of people that passed NCLEX. I also used NCSBN & (Hurst lectures was awesome) before and the questions I believed mimic the NCLEX. I was near passing and above passing in one or two areas but didn't pass. I believed it is a good program as well. All the best to you. You can do this Comrade.

Online:

UWorld - I subscribed for 1 month and renewed for another 2 weeks.

Books:

Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN Examination - Edition 5

Prioritization, Delegation, and Assignment: Practice Exercises for the NCLEX Examination - Second Edition

I am done with all the UWorld questions and

reusing the questions again. I read all the rationale but I still feel I am not ready for NCLEX. How to prepare better? I feel that I do need more contents.

Be positive that you can do it! Read and analyze every rationalization of an item. :up:

Hi, did u complete all the online Hurst review questions?

I failed my first Nclex RN exam and I am also in the process of reviewing for my 2nd try! I am using Saunder's Q&A 6th edition, also the flashcards, I did NCSBN for a month but this was last month so it has already expired and i plan on purchasing UWorld for a month (probably next month once im done reading Saunder's) What materials are you using? I need to practice moreon my test taking skills.

What do u think about NCSBN?

I'm using U world faithfully but didn't help me for license exam. U WORLD has good rationale and it's a good practice

I recently passed Nclex RN with 75 questions, and I used LA charity PDA, SPIDERMAN packet and the detailed video from summit college(free of charge), uworld but only for a month and had like 700 questions left, and Mark Klimek Videos.

Yes, from my opinion it NCSBN mimics the exam. It also has lots of content as well. I did my exam 10/28/17 and passed.

Hello my fellow friends on allnurses, please tell me where did you get Prep U Lippincott Passpoint free trial?
