Hello Nurses and graduate RN from excelsiour:

Please i need help with my classes as i like to plan ahead of time and then go with the plans.I want to know if exam cram,lacharity and practice exams sounds like a good plan to get all my classes out of the way?I also don't know where to find the sg101 that people are talking about.I don't really like using saunders,i prefer exam cram;what do you guys think?I have completed all of my prereqs and i don't need to take info literacy.I have taking the first two nursing classes first before enrollment.Please,i need you ladies and gentlemen to point me to the right direction and if possible when to find the resources needed to be successful.Thank you for much for helping.

I would also recommend a few of the textbooks, like whichever fundamentals and med-surg books EC is currently recommending in the exam content guides. I wouldn't rely solely on notes and review books -- sometimes a little more depth is needed.

Whatever gets you to the information in the exam content guide is good.

Thanks.I also took the practice exam a and b and i got 56 at the moment on both without studying;i am thinking i better study hard because those are low scores for safety.Thank you for your responses.

I agree with Lunah yes a few of the text books are needed beside the notes that are out there for free and for fee.

I personally like the Lippicott's NCLEX review as one of the texts instead of the Saunders...but that's my persoanl opinion.
