Anyone using or used NCSBN to prepare? If so how does it compare to NCLEX questions? Their prices are pretty reasonable.
Kaplan is very expensive and nothing I've seen so far really feels like the NCLEX. I know, I failed it once.
I'm currently using the Saunders review book and another book by Saunders of questions. Just wanted another source of practice questions to supplement what I'm doing now.
Thanks in advance.

I thought NCSBN was good. The site navigation can be frustrating at times, but the content is great.

I loved it. YES the site can be frustrating at times---
But i think it was very similar as way of the nclex! I suggest it!

I'm taking my boards in 3 weeks and I think the NCSBN 3 week program is fantastic! The questions are a bit more challenging than the Saunders Comp Review book. Don't be discouraged if you don't get a poor grade on the pretest--I myself scored a 66 (I'm not the greatest student/test taker)...Enjoy and have fun studying!!!!

I too failed once and used NCSBN to pass the second time. I think its worth it to check it out. I felt very familiar with the NCLEX style questions when I was done with the 3wk review.

Highly recommend it. After all, they write the NCLEX exam questions.
