Studying the NCLEX PN Saunders Book 3rd Edition

Jazzy_nurse_SF · Jul 15, 2008

Hi Vanessa,

I would do 100. You need to follow Suzanne's plan exactly the way she has it, no more than 100, and no less...after reviewing the chapters. I would also invest in the 4th edition. There are extra information pertaining to alternate questions and meds. I studied the 3rd edition and didn't pass, but that of course does not indicate anything. :wink2:

If you are doing the first tip with the book, it does not matter how many questions per day that you are completing; the goal with the book is to complete all of the quizzes. Number of questions here per day does not matter at all.

PN book does not come in a 4th edition, only for the RN exam.

The 100 questions is not until later on.

Thanks so much!!!! Mz.Suzannes for the answer to my question and also thanks to jazzymika for responding everyones so helpful!!!!! Well I'm good because when I'm studying I have to go back and review what I missed when I don't get 75% or better and all this takes time. Thanks so much. I'm trying to get there which is going to take time to climb the ladder for me.:smackingf:smackingf:smackingf

If you do not get the 75% on a quiz, then you actually need to go and read the chapter and then take the quiz again. Your score should then be 90% or greater if you have read the chapter.

Hope that this helps. With reading the chapter, your score should go up, and the reason for not reading it first is to see where your weaknesses are.

Best of luck to you.

How do u compute the scores?

turnerika · Feb 8, 2009

number of correct questions divided by total number of questions multiplied by 100 equals percentage correct.

If you only did 50 questions, at least you have started. You can build up to more questions as you progress and gain momentum. Remember, speed of study does not matter as much as quality of study. You want to make sure you are ready when you test. Good luck.

Just noticed date of OP. Hope the OP passed NCLEX months ago!
