congratulations newgraduate 07! what did you do this time that you think helped the most? i just found out i failed for the second time, ill probabaly be taking it at the end of november beginning december. any advice i would definitely appreciate. like what books u used etc. congratulations!

Consider Suzanne's Plan. Read her Sticky Thread at the top of this forum and decide if it is right for you. Otherwise I would suggest The Random Facts Sticky and The Infection Control Threads ( along with your reveiw book ). Good luck!!!

No matter how hard I tried I finally realized that reading an entire book cover to cover was not for me because I would read it and then forget what I read. So, what I did different this time was:

1. Kaplan Q-bank (practice questions)

2. Flash Cards for the infection control from Saunders book (e.g. airborne precautions, droplet precautions etc...) along with the PPE needed (e.g. gloves, gown, etc..) --- I did NOT read Saunders from cover to cover and didn't use the book for anything else but to make my flash cards for the infection control part.

3. Did the entire CD (which is not that much) of the HESI book. Repeated the

Pharmacology section which includes the 150 medications needed for an entry nurse level. (didn't memorize them all but did do the practice questions twice).

Good luck.:redbeathe

I also took the RN nclex this morning and I didn't have any math on there. Kinda scares me. I also got cut off at 75 questions with A LOT of pharm questions to which I didn't know half the drugs. I'm just praying.
