I did the NRsng Academy App with the unlimited full subscription for about 3 weeks. You can create a study plan there and once you complete enough practice questions it will identify your weak areas. Once you get those just focus on that areas lessons. I also was very familiar with Saunders book and disk as well as Prioritization/ Delegation book. I was out of school for an extended period of time- due to an illness- before I could test so I really feel like these things helped me review and prepare. Good Luck!

No, I don’t mind at all! Outside of books I purchased, I used the NRSNG Academy App. I did a bunch of questions then focused on the areas where the app identified I was weak. The areas of weakness they pointed out, I then reviewed their lectures (all on the app). The app also have lots of “cheat sheets” on frequently tested items. They have one on SIADH, HHHS, and Addisons. All of these helped me remember things I needed for the test yesterday in a concise way. I purchased Saunders book (as required by my program) this was my basis for most of my med surg studying. I also bought the prioritization & Delegation book. I’ll have to go find it and give you the title. Depending on how quickly you are testing, I could even ship them to you. I’ll also check in the interim if I have those both on iBooks, if so i think I can email them to you for free. Im so old school and love to have an actual book in my hand that I can write notes in the margin etc. I know the apps do it but it isn’t the same. I had a lot of OB topics and Peds stuff, HELLP questions etc. I have a maternal fetal medicine Demystified and Pediatric nursing demystified book that help to actually “get” those topics. I also watched quite a few videos on registerednurse YouTube channel. She’s a southern girl like me so she didn’t annoy me too bad. She’s super smart and great at breaking down physiology.

So, I just wanted to share with everyone so you wouldn’t panic like I did yesterday while testing. Within the first 20 questions or so, I started getting SATA questions and then THEY WOULDN'T STOP! Exam stopped at 75, total SATA at the end was 36. I thought I would die. Early this morning, my license has been issued. So somehow I survived it. I just wasn’t prepared to receive SO MANY, didn’t want others to let it scare them. Former instructor told me that meant I was at the “higher level” of questions. You can do it! Don’t panic like I did!!

I took it yesterday. I had 36 SATA (exam stopped at 75. Had 6 exhibit questions, 3 to order the steps of a process, and no MED math. I’m a licensed nurse today but I did not think I passed when I left. Honestly, it all felt too simple. Good luck! Do you test soon?

I purchased a 30$ subscription to NRSNG academy. I used their NCLEX study plan and did about 1500 questions in the 3 weeks I used to prep. Took NCLEX yesterday and passed. The questions on Academy really prepared me. Topics I was weak on (which the app helps you determine) you can review their complete lectures on the topics. You can pass. I wanted to puke after I had 33 SATA (new alternative format questions) but I made it and you can too. Good luck, please update us.

Wow. You are the only person that I’ve seen with more SATA questions than I got. I sat yesterday-exam cut off at 75. I had 36 SATA, and 6 exhibits. No MED math. I used all of the resources you mentioned but I also got a subscription to NRSNG Academy. I also had a ton of Prioritization questions so I was glad to have been familiar with that book. Many times during the test, I thought back to things I had read there.
