Hello everyone! I just need anybody's opinion. I'm taking my Nclex exam on May 17,2011. I only have a few more days. Resources that I used to study are Nclex 3500 , Exam Cram (cd and the book) , Lacharity's PDA and Kaplan Books (from 2010-2012). Considering I only have less than 10days before taking the exam, which resource among the ones I have do you think I should focus on reviewing over and over again?Any advice will be of big help. Thank You. :)

I think you should go through pharm and ensure you are comfortable with lab values. At this point, I don't think using extra review books will do anything. Answer more questions if you can and review all you have studied. I am taking mine this month and that is what I plan to do a week before my exam, by God's Grace. Good Luck!

At this point the bulk of your study should be done. You should be brushing up and concentrating on your relaxation techniques.
