NCSBN

EarthhAngel2013 · Nov 15, 2014

I'm taking NCSBN currently, and I like it a lot. I've read through everything and am doing all the questions they offer and making notes from those and really working to understand the content. I feel like it is helping very much. but I won't know for sure until test day will I. My opinion take it. I took Kaplan hated it and failed NCLEX. Hurst liked it and still failed NCLEX. The Illustrated Study Guide book for NCLEX, and the review they offered, and failed NCLEX. Then a combination of all of those things and still failed NCLEX. Now I'm getting ready to go for my FINAL time, my fifth time. And I feel like NCSBN has done their best to prepare me for the job. Even better I feel as though I've done my best to prepare me for my job.

I purchased the five week course and found it very helpful. I also thought the questions were very similar to those that I got on the NCLEX!

Am also using it along with KAPLAN..I honestly rialised that after using the NCSBN my kaplan scores increased. A friend of mine just toon the nclex and told me the NCSBN questions were very similar to the actual nclex.

Have you read the prioritization book by LaCharity?

how long did it take you to go through all of the ncsbn material? also... how long did it take you to get through the hurst review stuff.

Thank you all for your help. Yes, [COLOR=#003366]akomismo, BSN, RN I also have the PDA book. The older book, not the newest edition. I guess it is like they say, you have to find the review that works best for you. I will also be using the NCSBN with all my other resources that I have used in the past and some others that I have found online.

Personally, I think that the NCSBN is more similar to the actual NCLEX. I used Kaplan and NCSBN. I feel however, that the NCSBN helped me more than Kaplan. I passed in 75 questions. Good luck:)!
