1. Kapland readiness score

   rouriRN replied to laudtini's topic in NCLEX

   Its very important that you not to focus on the scores. Ofcourse they give you an idea of where you stand but its not all about the scores because there are people that score very well who fail the NCLEX and there are people who score very low and pa...

2. Hurst+kaplan= nclex success?

   rouriRN replied to Lemuel_RN's topic in NCLEX

   I purchased my Kaplan online course about a week and a half before I took my exam and that was hands down the best thing I could have done for myself. I would say at least 90% of the NCLEX is strategy and Kaplan does a fantastic job getting you to un...

3. Stressed to the point of exhaustion over NCLEX

   rouriRN replied to tiredofstudying1's topic in NCLEX

   Just a few weeks ago I was in the same position as you. I ate, slept, and breathed NCLEX. Everything revolved around the NCLEX and I was very reluctant to do anything that wasn't NCLEX related. It basically took over my life for a few weeks. About a ...

4. Am I ready? Kaplan scores not the best

   rouriRN replied to AstronomyNerd86's topic in NCLEX

   It's difficult to tell at this point because QT 1-5 are more content based. QT 6&7 are closest to the NCLEX so depending on your scores on those, that would be a better indicator if you are ready or not. I know its difficult to sit down and do al...

5. NCLEX Tomorrow-Kaplan Scores

   rouriRN replied to jfb5143's topic in NCLEX

   Don't focus too much on your scores! It is all about how well you learned your Kaplan strategies, because that is what will get you through your exam. Ofcourse basic nursing content is needed, but the most important thing for you to keep in mind is t...

6. Did anyone else WANT their computer to keep going?

   rouriRN replied to QuarterLife88's topic in NCLEX

   In a way I did, but when I went the test continued after I finished question 75 my heart definitely sank a little! The greatest feeling though was when the question shut off at question 76!

8. Qtrainer and Qbank?

   rouriRN replied to blessedBSNRN's topic in NCLEX

   I did use Saunders when I first began studying, but after about a week I stopped with that because I found the QTrainers and QBank much more useful!

9. Passed NCLEX RN first time!

   rouriRN replied to rouriRN's topic in NCLEX

   Thank you! There were definitely similarities in the way the NCLEX was worded compared to ATI. The most important thing I can tell you is just keep practicing your questions more than anything. It's important to learn how to answer, because you need ...

    rouriRN replied to kdmama's topic in NCLEX

    You got through nursing school, and you will get through this! Just another hurdle that you'll jump across :) Good luck!

11. How long is too long NCLEX PREP

    rouriRN replied to CRNA2b-2017's topic in NCLEX

    As long as you feel comfortable with the information, you should be good to go. If you wait too long you begin losing content. Use those two weeks to learn the essential NCLEX strategies and you will be set!

12. Qtrainer and Qbank?

    rouriRN replied to blessedBSNRN's topic in NCLEX

    Qbank has more than 1300 questions and they are all different than the Qtrainers. Also, Qbank questions are all considered higher level questions whereas the Qtrainer 6 and 7 are considered the higher level questions. The other question trainers are ...

    rouriRN replied to rouriRN's topic in NCLEX

    Thank you! We used ATI at my school as well, but honestly none of us took it as serious as we should have lol but now that I look back, it was definitely a good resource to have! The Kaplan book is great! Absolutely loved it!
