   Davies Q & A vs ExamCram

   the.godfatherXIII replied to West Aussie RN's topic in NCLEX

   I tried the Davis Q&A and I somehow got ****** with their software. There are a lot of typographical errors but the review material is good for practicing questions. I know someone who said the same with Exam Cram, it has typo errors too. I guess all softwares are not perfect. Also I heard that the material is good too. Have you tried Lippincott's?

   Dont want to rely on this

   the.godfatherXIII replied to Mrs. SnowStormRN's topic in NCLEX

   That is the good pop-up that I got after checking PV. I took mine at California BON and after 3 days, I saw my name on their website. Relax you just passed the exam. :hrnsmlys:*wine:hpygrp::ancong!:

   tested for RN today and I am feaking out now

   the.godfatherXIII replied to Ilovethe80s's topic in NCLEX

   If you got this pop-up in the PVT; Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your Member Board for further assistance. Another registration cannot be made at this time. That is already a good sign. I took the exam last 1/26. I got that pop-up. On the 28th, I saw my name in the California BON website. So the PVT works. I hope what I shared lessened your anxieties. :) Relax you passed!

   When in doubt....believe in the PVT!!!

   1. Saunder's Comprehensive Review = 100 questions/day 2. LaCharity P.D.&A = 2 chapters/day. The Case study section is up to you if you want to answer it, but for me the first 21 chapters where sufficient. If you finished it, do it again in a later date. 3. Get supplemental questionnaires. Pick 1 from the ff: Exam Cram, Lippincott's, Davis Q&A. 4. Do some flash card of topics you forget or you think is important to know like S&S of Hyperthyroidism, difference of gastric ulcer from peptic ulcer, basic ECG dysrhythmias + it's interventions (drug of choice, CPR, cardioversion?) and if possible, draw what the rhythm look like. After making some flash cards, read them with understanding after your review. This is what I did and it really helped. These will be your fundamentals to cover those "simple questions" in the real exam. And you need to get those "simple questions" right in order to get those priority questions.

    Near Passing Standard on NCLEX

    the.godfatherXIII replied to blynn9173's topic in NCLEX

    Having near passing standard means it is not within the competence level that the adaptive test is looking. I had results like this before. Although it is good to study your areas of weakness, I suggest you still review or give attention also to other areas. Basically, back to zero. Start all over and review like you never took the exam. 1. Study content more. Make flash cards to topics that you forget or want to compare. I used Saunder's for this. 2. Davis is good but during my review some questions and rationale have wrong info on it. So I'd suggest get other material for your supplemental questionnaires. Try Lippincot's or Exam Cram. 3. LaCharity is a MUST. If you don't have it yet, acquire it now. It helps a lot in preparation for prioritization and delegation questions. I have a lot to say but those 3 are the most important as of now. If you would like to know more, just send me a message. :)

    i HATE waiting for NCLEX-rn results

    the.godfatherXIII replied to r0sannaRN's topic in NCLEX

    try the PVT. It's in the sticky thread on top. California doesn't post license number 24 hours after your exam date. From what I heard, it may take 3-4 days before you can start checking it and it doesn't mean you failed. As for the official result by mail, it can take 1 week to 3 weeks. So my advice is hang in there and if you haven't tried the pearson vue trick, try doing it now to ease your mind a little bit. Hope this helps.

    Good Pop up!!

    the.godfatherXIII replied to Blondie24's topic in NCLEX

    yap that's the one. just to make sure cause i got the other pop-up before and i thought that i passed but only to find out that it is the "pseudogood pop-up".

    Study mode in Saunders

    the.godfatherXIII replied to RadBSN's topic in NCLEX

    Yeah i got your idea. I just wish the software developers would use there creativity further. It is what I also like, where you get random questions and all answered questions will not show in your next practice. So far kaplan has this setting. But for all the CD based review materials, haven't seen one yet. About the pharma questions by subject, I have observed in study mode that they also come out with the same subject. When you observe that you are all answering questions about GI system, expect that some meds for GI will show up. But then again, some will appear but not all.

    Good Pop up!!

    the.godfatherXIII replied to Blondie24's topic in NCLEX

    Can you post here the actual message from the pop-up? :) Just trying to make sure it is the right line. :)

    Study mode in Saunders

    the.godfatherXIII replied to RadBSN's topic in NCLEX

    I tried study mode for saunders where you answer all those 4000+ questions. Unfortunately there is no other way. But if you want, try bookmarking. Though it will still be the same, not random.

    Thanks for clarifying this Silverdragon. Since other fellows here might get confused as to which of the two is the true one.
