Hey everyone! I have been doing the ncsbn course to prepare for the NCLEX and was wondering if anyone who had used it and passed found it helpful? I am on the last question banks and scoring in 50%-73% range and I am freaking out. I am feeling frust...

FINALLY!!!! After all the stress, crying, and worrying I finally took the NCLEX and found out today that I passed. Thank you to everyone on here who posted soooo many encouraging words. Computer shut off at 75 questions and I was so unsure of how I ...

Our class received the 3 day ATI review as well. Although I didn't fail NCLEX, I would like to say that ATI helped somewhat. The strategies were nice and their review book was great. However, I loved the NCSBN course and I paired that along with the ...

i apologize for getting back to you so late! the course was a "review course" composed of several "modules" along with a question bank at the end. you begin with a 180 pretest to determine what you know and show you how you did as of that point. if y...

I did Lacharity as I went along. If one day I studied G.I. then I would look at the GI chapter in Lacharity. But to be honest, I only did maybe 5 chapters.

Lacharity was good for priority and delegation and once I got the hang of it it was smooth sailin! Definitely look at which patients are a priority and omg be sure to know what an UAP can do vs. an LVN/LPN!!! NCSBN was recommended (off record) by som...

Have you tried the NCSBN course? It was honestly the best tool I used. I will pray for you, don't give up. It may not have happened yet, but when it does, it'll be for the better. My test was a last minute schedule and I took it as a sign.

Thanks sooo much! I did exam cram, saunders and 1 kaplan exam and I would do better on those but I felt like sometimes the information conflicted so I stopped. I am a current wreck but hopefully tomorrow will be better!

I feel like finding your post was a sign!!!!! I am scheduled to take my test tomorrow. I also have been doing the ncsbn 3wk course and have been scoring in the 50%-73% range. I was (and still am just a little bit) freaking out till no end! The second...
I am taking mine on Tuesday also at 8am. I am just as nervous as you!!!! I don't know what else to do other than panic! Good luck to you though, we've already come this far!!!
Ok, So after an emergency I've had to bump up my test date. I have been studying my a** off since I received my ATT but I had a nervous breakdown today! I've been doing the NCSBN course along with many many MANY practice questions and I have been re...

WOW! out of soooo many posts that I have read on this website, I think yours helped me the most. I am a naturally anxious person and I have been freaking out since day 1 of graduation about NCLEX. Everything has been running through my mind, from wh...

I am in the same boat! I scheduled to take mine in exactly 3 weeks. I figure that would give me enough time to study in order to relieve my anxiety but is soon enough for me not to forget how to test! We will do great!! GOOD LUCK!
Hello everyone! I just graduated from an ADN program last Friday and now I am on the road to preparing for the NCLEX. Only problem is, I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE TO START. It seems very difficult to just get going. Days before graduation our class took an ...

Well my weakness was basic care and comfort but not all the books have this as a section. Do you think I should start with saunders and review each chapter? or do i just do questions? i am sooo confused lol
If you don't mind me asking, how exactly did you start your studying? Did you start with review of body systems? Doing 50 questions a day? Beginning with 1 chapter from saunders at a time? I am in desperate need of a starting point and I have no clue...

That is sooo funny because I just was reading some of your old threads from when you were preparing for the exam and I just saw that you just took it!!! How exciting! I am sure you passed and did great. I am graduating May 11th and am freaking out ab...
