Hi Ella,

This really depends on you and your studying / learning style. I know there are a lot of programs that incorporate NCLEX prep into the last semester of nursing school to help students prepare. I personally slowly started studying towards the end of my last semester, as I was more focused on finishing my course assignments and graduating. Once I graduated, I was able to focus all my energy on studying for the NCLEX. Kaplan has a review course that can be done either online or self paced, and they offer a large Qbank to practice. I also see other people recommending Mark Klimek / Klimek Reviews for test prep. Quizlet is also another great studying resource. Creating a study schedule and completing test questions daily helps with not getting overwhelmed. It will be challenging to remember every bit of information you learn, but if you are able to break down the test questions and understand what they are asking, you will do great. Good luck!
