I studied for 7 weeks and I used U-World and N-Powerment. N-Powerment is this book of everything you need to know for the NCLEX and comes with cue cards of the lab values/immunization records/rhythm strips/drugs you need to know. I also attended the live review, but they also have online reviews. It was expensive but totally worth it. I just went through each section of the N-Powerment book each week and when it came closer to the actual exam, I reviewed the cue cards. I used U-World about 3 months before my test date. I would choose different topics and do 20 questions each time. When it got closer to the exam, I did quizzes of 75 questions and was getting in the ranges of 58-72%, which is good for U-World. Two days before my exam I did the “self assessment” on U-World and scored 63% and 72nd percentile, which was a “very high chance of passing”. When writing always think about ABC’s and priority (MG patients, sickle cell, chest pain). I wrote two days later in 95 questions and found out the next day, I passed!! I am officially a Registered Nurse. Good luck.
