What is the best NCLEX book for studying

[2bnurseforce1]

Hi everyone, I am sure this question has been asked before. I was just wondering what is the best NCLEX book to get to use as a study guide, as well as to getting some good practice questions?

Lippincott, hands down.

I'm big with anxiety with big tests. It took me 3 tries to pass RN boards, despite having a B average in school. The first time I took one of those review classes. Failed. The second time, I bought a set of cassette tapes (this was before CD's were invented) and 2 other NCLEX books. Failed. The third time I bought a Lippincott book and became very depressed, because I was barely passing the practice tests in the book. I thought I was done for sure, but went ahead and sat for boards. The board test seemed too easy, I took 75 questions that were so easy I felt I could've done it as an LPN! That Lippincott book was hard, but prepared me more than any other review tactic.

Good luck!

Blessings, Michelle

Many people are successful using the latest edition of Saunders Comprehensive Review as well as the Linda LaCharity book on prioritization and the Kaplan review book for advice on test taking.
