i meant that i studied from saunders book 3 hrs a day and did questions the rest of the day (100q-256q) from saunders/nclex 3500 for 5 weeks.

I studied for 5 weeks from Saunders.....3 hours studying.....did between 100q-265q per day for 5 wks....i studied one system at a time...for example if i did cardio...i would study cardio peds and cardio adult...then the next day i would do cardio meds (a whole day to concentrate on meds section)...i learned better that way.... Thanks everyone again and best of luck to everyone who's yet to take nclex

Thanks ellany69....this was my 2nd time taking NCLEX-RN... i studied using Saunders for content and the CD for questions. I also used nclex3500 for back up but mainly concentrated with Saunders. I wish you the best ellany...

yes...i tried d trick as soon as i got home after Nclex-RN (it was my second time)....when i tried the trick...a pop up came up and i wasn't able to go to the cc page

UPDATE: I just found out that i passed.....I am an RN.....Thank you Jesus and my allnurses family

UPDATE: I passed...I am an RN...the trick worked for me. Thank you Jesus and Thank you Allnurses family

I took the nclex-rn this morning and tried the trick but it wouldn't let me get to the cc page....does this trick work for only nclex-pn or both???? please help,i'm nervous because this is the 2nd time i'm taking nclex-rn. the first time, i did not know about the trick. i stopped at 75 both times. my head hurts and i pray i pass this time.

hi everyone, i started this thread and wanted to update you all that i just got back from taking nclex (i rescheduled from 1st to 2nd so i get a whole day prior to rest). Today would be my 2nd time taking the exam and i had 75 questions again. It was tough....i studied and did questions from saunders and nclex 3500. I really do hope and pray that i pass this time. And to the rest of you all, i wish you the best. I will update when i get my result.

goodluck to all of us. we can do this!!!

please if you don't mind sh-eany....what's it like working in st peters, what's d starting pay as NUS or pct...thanks

Hello everyone, I decided to start a thread for those taking nclex in april 2009 so we can support and encourage each other. Please share your thoughts, fears, anything.....What you are using to prepare etc. This will be my second time taking nclex. First time (nov 12, 2008), i had 75 questions....felt horrible when i found out i did not pass. I made a study plan and promised myself to stick to it and not procastinate, gave myself 6 wks of studying. I am studying saunders 4th ed for content review, doing questions from saunders cd and nclex 3500. I plan to re-take nclex on april 1st, 2009. I am hoping for the best for all of us yet to pass nclex.

Thanks for the advice....i start in spring with some of the core courses (3 classes).....i'm a scared yet eager to start..... what made me decide to go the psych route is while in nursing school i enjoyed and learned a lot in all clinical rotation but psych struck a cord with me. I developed my affinity for listening to clients which enabled me to develop and allow the use of greatest personal trait. I understand that classes will be challenging, so with determination, support of loved ones and allnurses family......i will overcome....thank you everyone

Congrats and i wish you the very best in your new career.....hopefully by mid-january......i'll also post that i passed

my advice for lovelymo79 is to study or at least do a quick overview of the chapters before actual lecture for that chapter so that you can better understand what the professor is talking about.....i did all my pre-requisites e.g (A &P) in essex county college as a prenursing student and then tranferred to Rutgers....a&p was tough...i took it with toran....but you will learn a lot...also someone mentioned above about a website (ratemyprofessor.com)...utilize it.....best of luck

I took rutgers review class. Like atrex mentioned above, you can take the class if you need to brush up on content but in terms of strategies and how to answer nclex style question, it does not really help. I failed nclex because i went into the exam with knowledge (content) and not critical thinking skills.....i would suggest getting saunders comprehensive and doing suzanne's plan....info can be seen on nclex forum stickie. i wish you the best
