hey guys, i am doing a self study for the nclex-rn exam and i am posting my own strategy in this thread. i have noticed that my strategy keeps evolving as i go through the contents in nursing. i would very much appreciate if you can share your own and leave a comment regarding the matter. thank you !! :redbeathe
strategy
phase 1
- extensive content reading with pre and post test with note taking on each content area.
- all content areas should be covered before phase 2.
- the objective is not to score lower than 70% on post test.
- progress is reviewed.
phase 2
- practice tests from cd roms with note taking as necessary. content reading is minimal.
- the content of the test is based on a specific content area.
- the objective is to obtain 80% correct scores on any given number of items.
- phase 2 ends when all content areas are covered.
- progress is reviewed.
phase 3
- integrated tests until a saturation of 85-95% is achieved.
- phase 3 will not end until the objective for this phase is attained.
- progress is reviewed.
phase 4
- an assessment for readiness to take nclex-rn.
- level of anxiety and confidence is assessed as this phase will determine if there is a need to enrol in a review course.
