1. ATI and the NCLEX-RN

   gj519620 replied to Buckaroo93's topic in NCLEX

   ^^Oh yes, I forgot about the books! My school covered the price for all of them as well. Probably the only thing I liked about ATI were the bullet points in the books. Much more convenient than going back to a nursing book for reference.

2. ATI and the NCLEX-RN

   gj519620 replied to Buckaroo93's topic in NCLEX

   Yes, I second that ATI is good prep for NCLEX. My SON uses ATI, and us May grads had to get a certain score on the ATI Comprehensive Predictor (70%) in order to sit for the boards. So all of my classmates who I've talked with passed the NCLEX, many ...

3. Is this act considered cheating on NCLEX-RN test?

   gj519620 replied to itk3838's topic in NCLEX

   According to Pearson, brain dumping is cheating when you do it during the tutorial, before the actual exam starts. But Honestly, if you know the lab values, you shouldn't waste time scribbling them all down.

4. How'd you pass the NCLEX

   gj519620 replied to rmsm's topic in NCLEX

   1) NCLEX PrepU- did questions until I gained at least a Level "7" mastery on all of the Nursing Topics. Also did all of the Comprehensive Exams in the Lippincott Q&A book. Finally I took an NCLEX review course through my SON. 2) I probably spen...

5. NCLEX Help Please- Need Motivation!!

   gj519620 replied to SugarSugar15's topic in NCLEX

   What helped me was to get into the habit of doing say 50-100 questions a day. Don't review an NCLEX review book from start-finish or review content that you know already, just the topics/areas in which you are struggling and getting the answers wron...

6. 72.7% or 94% probability on VATI. How true r their calculations? Did you test by it?

   gj519620 replied to leanjess's topic in NCLEX

   I think the predictor is accurate. I got a 74% and passed w/ 75 questions as well. But I took the predictor back in May and the NCLEX in July. I did a few ATI tests between then to practice questions, but really the last few days before the exam i...

   Wow, the PVT is pretty awesome. I'm surprised Pearson hasn't caught on to it yet. :)

9. Anyone using ATI?

   gj519620 replied to EbonyQueen's topic in General Students

   My SON actually recently switched from ATI to HESI and its 10% of our final grade in each nursing course. Have to get at least a level 2 proficiency to pass, and the the score gets scaled some 10-20 points based on our percentage which equals our gra...
