I don't hear to often about this. What are your thoughts? Was thinking to use for help in preparing for my second attempt NCLEX-RN!
Thanks for your input!

I signed up for 8 weeks. It expires tomorrow It's all self study, so you have to be motivated. I liked it because it covers everything, has interactive exercises, tips, etc. There are a bunch of review exams of random questions. What really helped me was the diagnostic test. It was interesting to see the areas of weakness. They say it takes about 80 hours to do the whole thing....i'd agree with that.
Cost had something to do with it..... $100 rather than $300-$500.
I test next week- we'll see how it worked!
Thanks jojo
I was planning on signing up for it next week. I was going to do the 5 weeks for $70
I couldn't believe the price! Everyone else is soooo expensive and then I stumbled upon that with google. One other person has told me about it also; and they liked it too.

I personally don't like the fact that it is so tedious, but I love the questions, the hardest by far. I've done Kaplan, I CAN and Saunders. I can't sing it's praises just yet because I test next week, but from others in my class who have tested they say learning ext questions are most similar to NCLEX! I hope and pray they are right! Best wishes to you and everyone else testing!

I would also like to know. I am doing NCSBN and it is so hard for me to do the reading and remember anything.
@ Cloud - what have your percentages been?
I've been getting from 59%, 60%, 70% and even one 80% for the psychiatric section, but I've always liked psych, so that's not a surprise.
The section that is really getting me down is pharmacology.
What are your scores?
@xbabydebsx
my outcome was very positive i passed with 75 questions. the questions are most like the nclex and the format resembles the test plan and the computer screen. i did not read all of the content, but it was extremely helpful! best wishes!
@ sun-- thank you so much for your reply. i have purchased the 3 week review and will probably just do the questions from it. can i ask you one more question, what were the percentages you were averaging from the review?
thanks again, xB
