By Gods grace I passed Nclex on my first try.This is what I did, hopefully it will help someone out there. I read the exam cram and did some of the questions in the book. I did not finish the book. I did not really like Kaplan rationale so I really do not like it. I force my self to read it though.The unofficial study guide on this site helped me .I did not cram the study guide, but I wrote down everything I know about each point on the study guide off head and if I couldn't write anything down about a disease or drugs,I will go back and study the disease process from exam cram or Saunders. Also SATA in Saunders helped me a lot. Good luck to those that will be taking their nclex soonest. Remember to pray .
