Hello everyone! I am scheduled to take my NCLEX in 3 weeks and was wondering about how much studying I should be doing each day. I have the Saunders NCLEX review book and flashcards, the Kaplan NCLEX premier which includes the book, mobile, and online questions with 2 practice tests, and an Exam Cram review book. I thought someone had told me I should do at least 3000 questions before the NCLEX. Is that pretty accurate? Also, how much would you recommend the online question bank from Kaplan? Money is pretty tight so that is why I haven't committed to purchasing it yet.
Thanks everyone!

I passed nclex in 78 questions 3 weeks ago. I used Kaplan question trainer and all of the question bank. I used Saunders for review- I thought Saunders questions were easier than nclex. Good luck! Make sure you study SATA questions

sounds like you have all the material now you just have to study it. I completed roughly 300 questions a day which i wouldn't advise anyone to do. I hear Kaplan QB is great but i couldn't afford it so i purchased NCSBN and Lacharity PDA which weren't too pricey. I also used a friend's Hurst review material for a core content review.
