Hi JustBeachyNurse Thanks for your response. I think my problem lies mostly with application, so I might challenge the Kaplan.

Hi Everyone I'm new to this site, but find it very interesting. I completed PN school in December 2012 and did the NCLEX in mid April. I did not pass and I felt so hopeless and torn. I just find the courage to pick up the pieces and try again. I studied for about 6 weeks using the Saunders latest edition which I found ok for content. However, it did very little justice to answering strategy. Often people may say that if you know the material you have no problem answering the questions. I find this untrue for this exam. It's like having millions of dollars, but if you don't know how to spend it/ invest it, you end up broke. Could anyone please share their study materials and strategy with me. I've heard good reviews on Kaplan, Hurst and Exam Cram but I don't know which to purchase and how to use the (example which to do first etc.) Should I do the Hurst review course and just buy the Kaplan book for practice. Thanks
