I gained so much from this site and met very good people that help in passing this exam. If you are out there struggling like I did, you are not alone. If God put you to it, he will put you through it. I had graduated from nursing school 14years ago, and was told by one review course that I can never pass nclex, especially then going for a masters in business. But I knew that was crap! I prayed so hard and studied everything that came my way. Only 75 question in 95mints and I was done. I did PVT trick and it worked... I passsssssssed!!!!!!!!!.
Trust me, you can do it if determined. Here is what gave me hope! Each night, I would come to this site to read success stories, and see what materials helped those pple pass. The next day i go to amazon and buy those books.
I used Lacharity, Saunders Q&A(green), Saunders big text book with content and questions(4edi), Hurst review that Joe gave me(thank you Joe my friend). Nclex 4000, 3500, and all nurses notes. Because I was grounded in content, I had all SATAs and did not have to use my lippincott's nclex alternate question. I tried using it and was getting most questions right so i left it. Do not study for more than 2hrs at a time. eat lots of protein during yr prep. Chose a time you are most awake for the exam and pray b4 the exam. I did nclex more than once cos I did not think I could fail any exam. I did not know the time that was good for me so the last time, i slept in the exam hall. Answer sooooooo many practice questions. Saunders is nclex!
