What are some good books to study for NCLEX-PN?

I used Lippincott's and I also used the NCLEX made incredibly easy. I realized that once I took my NCLEX none of those really helped. What you learn in nursing school, knowing how to prioritize, and always thinking safety first is what will prepare you for the nclex more than any book. Also remember your ABC's, ADPIE, and Maslow. Hope this helps you. Im sure thats how I passed because nothing I studied in any of my nclex book was on the nclex. You probably could use your books to learn what to look for and how to pick the correct answer. Good Luck

a good study tool for me was the Lippincott NCLEX-PN flashcards. ...you can take them with you anywhere ...study on lunch breaks...car rides anywhere...and u don't feel like you're just reading all the time..They have the same thing that is in the book ...just on the cards...the cards are divided up into different areas to study...i reviewed diffferent sections at a time then some together to see where I lacked...having a friend do Q & A with me...the answers are on the back along with the rationals...Alot of my LPN friends told me studying wouldn't help because you really study for the NCLEX but I beg to differ....and remember to take a break from studying just before the test
