I used the same program Nicole Kupchik put together and passed the first time with flying colors. I also used the Pass PCCN book in my hospital's library to practice questions. Great

The NCLEX was just like the QBank questions. I was only doing 30-40 questions at a time before I took NCLEX for the first time. I was also using all the Q Bank questions and I did them enough I knew...
I am so sorry you didn't pass your exam. I used Kaplan and didn't pass the first time and stuck with it and used Kaplan to test second time and passed it in 75 questions. I didn't take the NCLEX the...
