Taking nclex again!!! Review!!!

Published

Hi...

My name is Parveen and i will be taking my nclex exam again for the second time very soon... maybe end of this month... I would love to help others and love to get some feedback and help in return.....

i wrote a blog before, but instead of people giving me advice,

they were just asking to get advice, and some study guides..

i was seriously just emailing study guides out...

NOT WHAT I WANTED TO DO...

I want to get feedback from people that have taken the nclex or that will be taking the nclex soon....

I want to put review material on this blog...

I want to put questions or mnemonics on this...

please add questions if you have any, and add mnemonics if you have any...

it is better to give than to receive...

so lets help each other out....

Thanks so much...

First off: Some tips.....

1. DO NOT REVIEW TOO MANY THINGS!!! (don't read like 10 different books, and do like 3 review courses, and like 20,000 questions) (OVERLOAD IS NEVER A GOOD IDEA!!!)

2. I recommend studying a max of 3-5 review items... (ex. 2 review books- 1 for content and one for questions, and 1 review course)...

3. my recommendations: saunders- content

: exam cram- questions

: lacharity priority and delegation book- priority (huge topic on nclex)

: ncsbn review ($50 for 3 weeks, and gives both content and questions and is like the real nclex)

4. everyday please take at least a 30 minute break after 2-3 hours of studying to cool down, and do something you like... "energizer bunny needs a break too"... ( this will be a great way to get rid of nerves, and anxiety, and re-energize yourself for a better study session)...

I hope all these tips will help somebody pass nclex...
