I used hurst and Kaplan review. I did about 50-75 questions a day and read the rationales. I studied content with Hurst, and Kaplan before doing questions. I took the exam for the first time last month and passed with 75Q. It took me about 6 wks to prepare for the exam and I put in between 6-8 hours daily. I also prayed a lot about the exam. I wish you the best and may God be with you.
Lisa1980, I did my NCLEX RN yesterday, and tried the PVT. I got the good pop up 3 times yesterday and twice today. You said that you saw your licence on your BON the next day after your test. How were you able to check? Did you try the PVT the first time you tested?
