graceybiñas,

when you planning to take your nclex" . where and what board of nursing did you apply? do you have att permit.

yes, you can apply directly to the board of nursing. not personvue. there only few state need cgfns. i dont know where your bf lives but if that is the case they requires cgfns. you can process or apply california, new york, colorado, new jersey. and still you can take your test where ever you wanna go. when you pass your nclex saka mo in endorse saan mo gusto. or where ever your bf lives.

I am taking the NCLEX on June 5th and have been diligently doing my questions everday. Would you all say it is relatively straight forward or tricky? I have the Saunders prep books and took a review course that was offered with the school. The instructor told us continually that this exam is geared with questions for a 1st day new grad.....can anyone throw their 2 cents in please? Thanks

Can someone please tell me what the Psych -k approach to studying for the NCLEX is? Thanksss

hi..thanks for those who posted for the tips on the nclex exam

i just wanna ask where can i get the NCLEX 3000 program???

and also for those using the NCSBN, which of the program did you purchase? the 8 weeks or 15 weeks?

ryt now im halfway of my SAUNDERS book-latest edition..

il be taking the exam this year..

thanks..

hi nclex reviewees..i have a very important question, pls if u have ideas and advices just quote this msg and post it here..i am reviewing Saunders ryt now(3e) just like what people advices, read it and focus on its rationales..im getting into it easily now.im finding it a bit easier knwing the style, context of how they throw questions in that Saunders review book and cd but when i started answering NSCBN review online questions..man! its way hard and im having a hard time applying the style of answering the questions from saunders to that of the online ncsbn questions.. im worried and confused, what will i do and how will i review now? i feel like the Saunders book is way too different to the online review of NCSBN. is the ncsbn online review works best for the nclex review? i just thought cus since their the once who makes actual nclex questions though.. pls help me..tnx.

i think kaplan strategies works, nclex uses Bloom's taxonomy, that you focus on analysis type question not memorizing too many definitions and facts. . my exam is on june 25 in HK pray for me :D . there are so many review books which will only confuse you. i stick during my review with kaplan+saunders.

i will be taking the nclex exam in july and would like to find some really good resources for the prioritizing patient care part, does anyone have some information?

I just took NCLEX on June 5th and was glad that I had used the green Saunders Q&A book. They have a whole section dedicated to steps of the nursing process, etc. I had also used Kaplan but found Saunders more useful. Hope that helps.

hey katty do you still have revew materials for the RN exam? I am going to take the exam next month for NY and would like to know about any patient prioritizing information or books?

Thanks

Maurice
