I used the LaCharity book in school, but I did questions out of it a coupledays before boards, and to be honest...it really brought my confidence level down. Im not sure if I passed yet, but I had 75 and lots of priority on there!! Also, Kaplan quest...
Me too!!!! Well, the questions I could remember. Its like in school, I could remember questions from three semesters ago, but when I took NCLEX my brain was fried the moment I left!! I didnt count the SATA or the priority, but it seemed like every ot...
