I used the Sauders and NCSBN.org learning extension. I felt the NCSBN website really helped me, and it's only $50 for three weeks. Give it a try

I highly recommend the site also. Ms, Tianah was accurate in her description of the course and I believe that the course was most helpful in the areas of prioritization and delegation. Good luck studying and I hope you take their course:yeah:

Relax and get a good night's sleep :) You will do well. Good Luck!!!!

I took my test last Friday, Sept. 3 and I believe that it definitely works. I did the trick as soon as I got home Friday morning and confirmed my passing results on Sunday. Congratulations!!!!

Hello, I attended Concorde Career College - North Hollywood from 2000-2001. I recommend it if you are looking for an accelerated course. I had no problem finding a job once I got my license and I do feel that I learned the basics of nursing there. The only thing that I felt they could have improved was the classroom space and parking, other than that everything went smoothly. Good luck to you!!!

@sarahmb, Thank you for your advice regarding the "PVT", I checked it one last time before I go to sleep tonight. Thankfully I still have the same result. I will keep everyone updated on how this turns out. Hopefully I will be able to access my quick result this Sunday even though it will be a holiday on Monday. Have a good weekend all!!!

Hi Lisa380, I keep checking pearsonvue and it keeps giving me the same results so I am hopeful. Check it!!! It will really help your nerves. After that you will be relieved.... trust me. I left the test site feeling horrible, but after reading all the posts and trying the "PVT" I feel so much better. Good luck to you and I really wish you the best. I hate having to wait for the results, but then at least I have the quick results I can rely on. I hope you do also!!! Good luck!!!

I was also wondering about the PVT. I have attempted it and have gotten the "good pop-up". How many times can you do this before you are no longer allowed to keep checking? Also has anyone's "pop-up" ever changed?

@ surfingnurse12, You are not a dork....I didn't even know that abbreviation until I saw it on this website LOL!!! @delilas and @caliotter3, Thank you!!!

Select all that apply :)

I have to agree with itsmejuli. The first time I ever took HESI was the OB HESI and I did not do well. Luckily we were given three chances to take the HESI in order to move on to the next semester. I didn't need a third chance but I really feel that doing multiple NCLEX style questions really helped me. I do own the Saunders book, but I feel that for HESI studying from the Mosby's question bank was more effective. I found that after doing multiple questions from that Q&A bank, the HESI questions seemed similar. Good luck on the HESI!!! Just took my NCLEX RN today so I hope all the HESI's we took in school prepared me :)

Hello LauRN, Thank you so much for your response. I'm really glad that there is someone out there who has been in my situation and has passed. I know this sounds crazy but I felt like the computer should have given me more questions. I will try my best to have a good weekend and hopefully my results will be up by Sunday. Have an awesome Labor day!!!

Hello surfingnurse12, I too am an LPN, but when I took my boards I had the max questions. That's why I feel so nervous now. My pointer would be to practice SATA questions. I did not have to identify sounds but as far as I know those are experimental questions at this time. I really can not tell you which meds to focus on because I can not recall the test for some reason. It all just happened so fast. Good luck on the 8th. Study well

Hello Everyone!!! I just finished taking the NCLEX 2 hours ago and am really nervous. I was wondering if anyone has passed the NCLEX without any of the hot-spot questions, drag-drop questions, and even med calculations. The computer shut off for me at 75 with a majority of questions being SATA and delegation. I feel really discouraged because I did not receive any of those questions and maybe I was doing poorly on the SATA so the computer would not allow me to move on? I did get endless medication questions on the test though, medications that I had to guess on. Thank you for taking the time to read this, any input would be greatly appreciated
