How many of you who took this course think it helped you on the nclex? I graduated December 19 and I have my test date for next week January 9 but really not sure if I'm ready. I am debating on taking the 3 week course because I need to take my test by the end if january and was thinking maybe after taking that course and doing some more studying I would feel better prepared. Any opinions or suggestions would help. Thanks.

I took the 3-week course strictly or the questions; I know a few of my cohorts that took the 5 week course and passed; I passed as well, but the NCSBN was in addition to my study plan.

I took the 5 week course although I only finished about half the lessons because there was so much information. But it was helpful and the questions were similar to nclex. I passed at around 160 questions.

Do yourself a favor and take the course. It's helped me as well as others in my class. Questions are a lot like the actual exam. Good luck!

Would you all recommend reviewing the content on NCSBN
I have reviewed Hurst review very thoroughly except peds then I covered all content and quizzes after each lesson on ncsbn..except 3 lessons...I am focusing only on finishing the qbanks right now (about 1000+ questions)....since I am familiar with the topics thanks to hurst, I felt like I breezed through the lessons..it depends how you feel..good luck!!!:)
Thanks!! That information was very helpful. I ended up changing my test day to january 21 so that I can take the 3 week course:)
We can do it!! do your best on following your study schedule...We will succeed! have faith...We will be RNs in 2014!!! Its our year to shine...HAPPY NEW YEAR :):)

Taking my exam on February 6th and just signed up for the 3 week course. I hope I have time to get through all of it! Are the questions useful/similar? What's a good score to be getting?
