    Has anyone used UWorld to study for NCLEX?

    I passed NCLEX in 75 questions using UWorld almost exclusively (school required us to take the live Hurst review- but I did nothing more than attend the review- only opened my book a couple times...

    UWorld RN prep.. Is it reliable?

    I have never seen anyone on these boards report using UWorld and failing. I used UWorld almost exclusively, didn't even finish all the questions, and I passed in 75 questions first try on June 15th. I...

    75 Qs, think I failed

    There are plenty of people who will tell you the type of question you get does not matter. I honestly do not know if that's the truth or not because NCLEX is incredibly different for everyone who...
  4. Everyone learns differently, so I cannot really say how you should and shouldn't go about preparing for NCLEX! Keep in mind, UWorld only offers 1,896 questions- if you did 50 questions per day, you'd...
  5. I hope you do well tomorrow! You are exceptionally prepared and I am sure you will excel through the exam. Let us know about your experience!
  6. Good luck to all of you! Keep me posted.

    Just took the NCLEX, UWorld is amazing

    Just took NCLEX yesterday, also shut off at 75 questions and I left the test smiling. Found out today I passed. UWorld was practically my only source and I can't tell people enough about

    Taking NCLEX in less then 24hrs...

    I just passed in 75 questions using UWorld alone- and I didn't even finish all the questions (1525/1897). I can say with certainty that there were numerous NCLEX questions I wouldn't have known the...

    265 questions on NCLEX?

    I've read some posts where PVT does and doesn't work. Just saw a more recent post a few days ago where a girl got the bad pop up and passed... It seemed to be more of a "for sure" thing prior to...
  11. I absolutely agree, Ackeem! It was just like doing another day on UWorld during my

    How far would you commute?

    My drive was 48 miles one way, took me about 55 minutes to get to school. So almost two hours of my day, 4 days a week were spent in the car. That time wasn't wasted though. I recorded my professors...

    Not Naturally Smart

    I am not naturally smart either, I work my ass off to get decent grades. I'm in my senior year of nursing school and have received straight B's so far (some of my grades were 90-92%, which in regular...
  14. The grades are in and I got all A's and B's in my classes which included: Medical Surgical Nursing I, Pathophysiology-Pharmacology I, Adult Health Assessment, and Nursing Informatics. No, it was not...
  15. For my care plan, my instructor now wants us to find two nursing interventions through scholarly journals/articles... I don't exactly understand how... I have spent two hours looking for said nursing...
  16. My nursing diagnosis is impaired physical mobility if that
  17. Hello guys! So I am supposed to come to class on Tuesday with a topic that has to do with "nursing informatics." She was very vague about it, so I guess what I am asking is what do you guys think...
  18. @ChristineN Thank you for your ideas!

    Stethoscope Engraving?

    So I read through a post about stethoscopes on here and a lot of people say that you should get them engraved... Is there a reason why? Also is there a place that you can get them engraved? The only...

  21. Since I am a student, I decided to get the Littman Classic II SE in Pearl Pink. Once I graduate I will also graduate onto the Cardiology III Littman. My mother wants to buy it for me for

    What Watch to choose?

    Whatever kind of watch you choose, I would not do silicone! But rather a plastic-type. Silicone gets dirty QUICK and whatever dirt/"stuff" you get on it doesn't come out, even with a magic scrubber....
  23. So if you're like me, you did not have the foggiest notion of what nursing would be like other than what you observed in hospitals and heard from friends before school. If you're like me you were...
  24. @Heathermaizey like I said earlier, if you have the confidence in yourself to dive into nursing school with out some experience, more power to you! Of course I did some homework too, but that wasn't...
  25. Thank you guys for all of the positive feedback!
