STUDY TIPS:

Here are some of the Best books/materials/online resources to study:

• La Charity & et al. Prioritization, Delegation, and Assignment
• Saunders' NCLEX RN Book (Esp. the Safety chapter)
• Kaplan Online (very difficult questions but a good endurance test)
• Know it is easier said than done, but try to study differently
• Hogan's NCLEX exam (software, this is the main Q&A Practice tool)
• Audio Tutorials
• NursesLab.com (NCLEX Q&A)

Practice answering and 100-300 questions per day and review and focus on your weak areas. Knowing where you stand helps in sharpening your knowledge, endurance and test-taking skills.

1. Prepare well for the exam so that there will be no nick of the moment panic. Treat yourself nicely by giving yourself a treat. Learn to unwind, watch movies and listen to music.

2. If it’s near you, visit your Testing Site and get yourself familiar with the place so you feel relaxed at the thought of the exam.

3. One NCLEX certified Nurse says that she answered a number of SATAs, hotspots (drag and drop, etc), prioritization, delegations, ECG tracings, and the typical multiple choice questions. She recollects SATA questions were hard and one has to really choose the best or the ‘right most’ answer. She further adds that one should never get tempted to check all the boxes instead take time to contemplate which items you will check.

Few other questions will really challenge your critical-thinking skill. This Nurse finished the exam in just 1 hour and 30 minutes. Think differently and practice as many questions as possible. Your hard work and determination will eventually pay off.

4. Here’s a word: people who do not pass in spite of many attempts (fee structure: It is $200 plus $150 Scheduling Fee) (some have failed even the 12th time round) it is suggested that you take a Refresher Course. If you still fail the next time maybe it's time to change to a career you think that you will excel in. Some have passed in the third attempt. It's a hard test, and a nerve wracking one considering you need to pass it to become an RN. Don't put yourself in the mindset that you're going to fail, keep your hopes up, and keep studying. You will do fine!

5. Yet another Nurse says that yeah, 60s is the ideal percentage. For example if you are weak in Pharmacology then make flash cards for things you are having trouble understanding and by heart them out aloud which helped her. She advises taking Practice Tests online if they are available.

6. It is also suggested that one goes through some textbooks and reads them taking notes as if you were studying for class again as just answering questions is not enough. Your long gap without applying the material to the clinical environment means you need much more than practice NCLEX model questions.
