So I am studying to retake my NCLEX RN and I have recently purchased the Exam Cram RN book to study from but now I am considering returning it and doing the NCSBN online review.....anyone have any advice on this????? It would definitely be much appreciated!

I would not do this unless you have been able to look at the other program and have decided that it is significantly better. Can you afford both?
Exam Cram is just a book with a CD that has content and questions that cost 45.00 and NCSBN is an online review and they are the makers of the NCLEX and cost 50.00 for 3 weeks....I can't afford both of them and I want to utilize the better of the two....I heard great things about NCSBN b/c they make the NCLEX and their questions are good but I have heard bad stuff about them too.....the same with the Exam Cram and that's why I am on the fence about it

I'm doing exam cram 2nd edition q&a book. I assume you're using the latest book they have. Based on the 2nd edition book, questions were recall. I heard NCSBN have good q&a.
Yes. I have the 3rd edition. No difference tho. I'm also doing hurst, nclex 4000 and pda. Ugh. I just wan r to pass already. This will be my second time. Praying and praying for a positive outcome.
I'm using the same materials. I'm saving my hurst q-review before I took the exam. I want this to be over. Argh.... 1 more sleepless month for me.
Good luck to you! God Bless! :) keep us posted! :)
Thanks. I test next week. I'm kinda nervous since it's my second time. Praying praying.
