I did Kaplan through school, I worked with Saunders (the disc in the book the most). I did find an awesome guy on youtube Michael Linares that has 300+ free videos that were better than what I had in school. He also has a paid site. I like coming up with crazy ideas to remember things, he does it that way too.
I walked into the testing area telling myself that it was just another test, not the NCLEX. I was hoping to take the anxiety out of it. It worked! I stopped at 77 questions. For me this has been a long journey. I've been an LPN for 15 years and have been working on the transition for years. Years ago I was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer. Today I am cancer free but the one thing that kept me going was the goal of completing my degree. I feel good about the test today. I said I wasn't going to do the Pearson trick but of course you know I did! So if it is true, I guess that means I passed. I will believe it when I see it. I wasn't nervous then but I am now!! This is going to be a long weekend.
I took mine today too. Also in Florida. I got the good pop up window. I don't know if it really works. It's going to be a long weekend for both of us. Good luck to you!!
I did the LPN program first because of the long wait lists for the RN program. I am glad I did it that way because I chose a private school for the RN program (graduated Oct 2013) had I not gone through the LPN program first I don't think I would of done as well as I did. I am set to take the NCLEX RN in 3 days!!
