Here are some great websites including Kaplan's QT. This is the best that has QT http://philippinenurses.blogspot.com/search/label/ALL%20ABOUT%20THE%20NCLEX%20%20EXAMINATIONS This one helped me a lot for infection control questions http://www.scribd.com/doc/3213745/Review-Notes-in-Infection-Control-NCLEX This one has different videos with diseases.

another problem after 10 hours hoorificeness of voice is r/t laryngeal nerve damage, etc...

I got discouraged too when I had low score. I feel your pain. Keep doing questions. You will make it. You will do just fine. Soon you will say to yourself "she was right".

thanks everyone. i wish you all the best. please make sure for a topic that you study know what exactly they may ask on nclex. for example: after thyroidectomy what could be a problem? the answer is hypocalcemia r/t damage of parathyroid glands with 2 famous titany signs: trousseau sign and chvostek sign. another problem after 10 hours hoorificeness of voice is r/t damage of vocal cords etc.... after cardiac cath you always check for hematoma (bleeding), check pedal pulses bilaterally etc... i will think some other tips later.......... please let me know if i can be of any help. you will pass!!!!

I found out today that I passed with 75 Q. After 48 hr (48 years sound better) the NCLEX empire is down. I am now a "free" person, I am an RN. Don't you dare think that you will not pass. All the hard work will be paid back. You are not afraid of anything since you survived nursing school. My tips: Practice questions as many as you can. Read the rationale Kaplan is great, but expensive. Do some web research you will find the Q-trainer Q&A all 7 of them for free. NCLEX 3500 has SATA very similar to NCLEX. Make sure you read "Anyone for random fact throwing" is a sticky now, and contribute yourself. For those that have time Susan's plan sounds good, but for others questions, questions, questions.Good Luck and God Bless all of you.

We maybe had the "same" 75 questions, I guess. I took mine today as well. I got some stupid questions wrong. Hopefully we pass this exam. Good luck to you! Keep us posted.

Congrats, Californianursemanage.

Good Luck!!! I mean it from the bottom of my heart. I just got back from NCLEX and ended up with 75 Q. It didn't seem really hard to me which worries me a lot. Anyway.... All the best to you!
