I did a comprehensive test & bombed

Don't feel dumb

Just keep on doing questions! I was in 50's (sometimes 40's) when i first started, then I just kept on and kept on. Then I started to see the overall scale rise to the 60's then 70's. But I still had slips here and there. I found that if I miss the same sort of questions over and over again I start to get it through my thick head and start getting them right.

And of course I just took NCLEX today, and felt like I didn't know a thing. But that's suppose to be normal I guess.

Just keep plucking away and you'll do great!!

melinurse,

i know you may seem discouraged, but remember some people do poorly on the comprehensive tests, question trainers, etc, and still come out succeeding the nclex exam. yes you can use it as a baseline, but i wouldn't stress too much about the score. you still have 2 weeks left. you have been posting like crazy on the random facts thread (and i so appreciate that!) and i know your smart. you have to believe and have faith and know that you can do this and that it is possible. also, remember the nclex is just a test. it does not in the long run determine the care of nursing and how great of a nurse you will become. trust yourself and pray and remember all things are possible. you are studying hard and preparing for the nclex, it will pay off. i wish you the very best and see you on the random facts thread!! :heartbeat:icon_hug:

you can, you will, you must! and remember, the day before you test, don't look over anything, just relax, do something fun, and free your mind!! :)

I got discouraged too when I had low score. I feel your pain.

Keep doing questions. You will make it. You will do just fine. Soon you will say to yourself "she was right".
