Hi everyone,
I'm a student getting ready to take my NCLEX exam. I was looking for advice on preparation and such?
Thank you

Depending how much time you have and how much money you would like to spend here are some suggestions:
There are some NCLEX review courses out there that you can pay $400 or more for to prepare you for the NCLEX
There are also some great prep books you can buy at any book store that will prepare you just as well. I really liked NCLEX for Dummies. I truly believed it helped me prepare.
I took the $400 course, it was a graduation requirement. It personally did not help me. ( The classroom time was a joke)
Set aside some time every day to study. Don't wait too long to take the NCLEX, just do it. The longer you wait the harder it becomes and panic/anxiety set in.
Good Luck.

I took as many practice tests as I possibly could, studied/reviewed a different body system each week and had my husband quiz me from my class notes that I'd kept since school had started. Our school also provided a free review class that lasted 2 weekends, all day. The teachers were great giving up case studies, silly ways to remember things & test taking pointers. Good luck & God bless.

I don't believe that we have a review session, but i will find out. Thank you for your post!
