I didn't study until 2 weeks before & I focused on what I didn't know. PDA by Lacharity is a great book for studying. I would study for 2 hours using the PDA book looking at the rationales and looking up any diseases I didn't know thoroughly or medications. Then after that two hours throughout the day I'd do maybe 100 questions from the nclex mastery app. Watch RemarReview videos. The best advice I can tell you is stay away from the negative blogs or videos! It just intimidates you. The NCLEX isn't that difficult once you figure out how to dissect the question. Good luck to you!

Hello all!
So, I used this website for all of the tips on studying for NCLEX & by far the best advice I've read is TRUST YOUR KNOWLEDGE. I was a student that got mostly A's & B's. (I got a few Cs too but C=RN too.) I've always had test anxiety but I focused on my motivator (my significant other & my nephew) & took my time! 5 hours & things I've never heard of later, I emerge. 4 of my classmates took it on the same day. 2 had 75 questions, 1 had 210, the other 231.
Needless to say, we did the Pearson trick. 3 out of 4 got the "good pop up" & the other "insufficient funds". We're gonna wait until Wednesday & hopefull I can proudly put RN behind my name.
