Hi has anyone taken the review with ncsbn.org and did they find that it helped?

are you talking about the learningext.com review? if you are, i signed up for the 3 week one, and i thought it was a total waste of money. the questions were nothing like the nclex. another thing i didnt like about it was that when you took the test,there were only explanations on the right answers. i was confused as to why certain answers were right, but the explanations were weak, and it didnt give you expalnations on the WRONG answers. luckily, my school forced us to take kaplan, and i can honestly say that those questions are the closest to the nclex. it also helps you to build on your critical thinking skills.
good luck!

Everything is different when you sit down and take that test, I really don't believe that a review helps 100%, maybe 45% the rest is up to you and faith.

I think you could ask 100 people what helped them with the NCLEX and you'd get 100 different answers. *I* found Kaplan helpful, but I also took the ncsbn review and did a few of the Saunders tests. Today I was talking to a group of fellow grads and several of them swore by the ncsbn.
Truthfully, I just did the tests on ncsbn...I skimmed thru the content review because it was entirely too much material.
