I have failed nclex a few times. I am planning on using Uworld as I hear so many good things about it.
I would like your help and feedback on what you used along w Uworld.
I dont know what book would be a good review of the material/content without getting overwhelmed w details.
Please tell me your experience w your resource and what you liked about it.
Appreciate all the help I can get.

I only used Uworld. I didnt really have a content book that I used with it because Uworld's rationale is very substantial. But Saunders book i very popular when it comes to content... God bless.

Hey!
I failed twice mostly from poor preparation so I really studied for my third attempt. I watched the Hurst videos, skimmed through Saunders and read through Kaplan along with UWorld. I only started doing UWorld after I felt that confident with content. I read through the rationales, and tried to understand what the questions were asking before picking the right answer. I only used the free trials for UWorld. I did about 200-300 questions daily for 2.5 weeks before my exam. The week prior to my exam, I read through the Hurst handouts 3x with Saunders as additional support on topics I didn't quite understand. I suggest doing a lot of questions! Don't overwhelm yourself though. Don't be discouraged if your % on UWorld or whatever source you use is not what you want. Just practice doing the questions. Learn the strategies. Take breaks because you deserve it. Think positive! Good luck!!
