Psych is a challenging part of the NCLEX (or just psych course tests) to prepare for. It's not like strictly physical stuff where you can apply the ABC's and prioritze according to that.

Here's a good simple breakdown of ego defense mechanism. I'm not aware of any sites that have practice questions (without a charge.) Good luck!
If you have specific questions, you might post them in the psych nurses forum and see what turns up :).
