SAUNDERS BOOK:
-great for foundation/knowledge
-review and reference book for chapters/units you don’t know well, i.e. heart rhythms

UWORLD:
-2 practice tests, 90 day (3 month option for $129)
-take notes on the rationale and study them
-study key points within the rationale since they are long
-understand why the answer is correct & why the other options are incorrect bc this gives you info on other topics and explanations
-select all that apply questions are important to do
-50-100 questions a day is what I studied, originally studying one unit/system a day and then moved onto combining different units for variety of questions to mimic actual NCLEX

-UWORLD SCORES/PERCENTAGES:
-difficult questions, don’t be discouraged by 50-60%, its about learning from the rationale and yours scores will improve as you keep doing the questions
-practice tests: 2: did get very high chance of passing ~80%
-did the practice tests 2.5 weeks before and then 1 week before actual NCLEX date

HOW LONG TO STUDY:
-8 weeks, 4-5 hours a day,
-give yourself 5-10 weeks to study because you don’t want to forget stuff from beginning, but depends on you
-I did go back and reviewed some questions i didn’t know well

PHARMACOLOGY:
-only used UWORLD
-Saunders has a lot of questions but UWORLD is overall better
-know your LAB VALUES well!

DAY BEFORE/DAY OF NCLEX
-reviewed lab values
-remember everyone writing the test is nervous, everyone is going through the same thing!
-testing environment was nice, quiet & they give you headphones/ear plugs for noise cancellation

NCLEX DAY:
-75 questions, took ~1 hour
-next morning at 4 am i got an email saying that I passed
-take breaks if you need to!
-I did not study on this day prior to my test
-I tried to book an earlier time so that I was not anxious for hours until my test
-bring your ID!

FINAL TIPS:
-take a few deep breaths
-read the question very carefully
-take your time
-can use process of elimination for questions you are unsure of
-many questions that I didn’t know (SATA), so go with your gut
-don’t forget to do questions on leadership, management, nursing scope/roles, maternity
-I spent an average of ~1-2 min a question

Good luck, and happy studying!
