Study Materials

[eacu]

Seen a lot of posts on this topic, very confusing. I just passed my exit exam and I am preparing for the NCLEX in Florida. I have the following books provided from my school

1. KAPLAN-The Basics

2. Saunders 5th edition- and the CD

3. Saunders 6th edition-NO CD

4. Pearson Comprehensive review for NCLEX-RN

5. My school is buying me a 5 week review course on NCSBN.

6. All my school texts, medsurge, pharm, fundamentals, etc.

7. Lippincott Q&A Review for NCLEX-RN 11 edition.

8. Enormous amount of test banks, EXAM CRAM questions, and other free stuff I have received from former students.

I have used all the books at one point or another but not in their entirety. I am thinking about adding either Lacharity or Kaplan Premeire 2015-2016. Any suggestions? Am I over doing it? I would really like to pass the first time. If your wondering how my school gave us so many books, in two years we had about 8-9 DON's, NO JOKE, and each one had a different favorite NCLEX review book LOL.

Thank you for your help.

It sounds like you are fine with materials! Just utilize them the best of your capabilities! Be sure to know your content before attacking questions. I mean, you can do 50 questions here and there as you are studying content but I would know your content and then starting doing 100+ questions a day. I literally did over 5000+ questions before I took my NCLEX but I studied about a 2-3 weeks of content and the same with questions. If I had to recommend anything would be testing strategies to help pick out the best answers [:

GOOD LUCK FUTURE RN
