I need to know if my Kaplan scores are considered good enough to pass. I have not done question trainer 6 or 7 yet but I still have about three weeks until I test. I am interested in knowing what others got on their scores. Mine are as follows:

Qtrainer 1 = 61
Qtrainer 2 = 65
Qtrainer 3 = 71
Qtrainer 4 = 61
Qtrainer 5 = 63

Qbank 67% completed so far = 70% overall correct

I am taking my test for the second time. Fortunately most of the questions did not look familiar to me even though I did 100% of the Kaplan course before. Should I consider these scores accurate? I'm terrified of not passing again. Please give me your opinions and advice.

Thank you!!!

My cumulative score on the qbank was 62%. I can't remember all of my qtrainers, but I got a 70% on #5 and 62 on #4. As for qtrainer 6 and 7, I scored 71% and 66% respectively. It looks like you're on a good pace right now. Just keep going over the rationales for all your questions, even the ones you got right but had to guess. Don't forget to use the decision tree, it helps when you're not exactly sure what's being asked.

Re: I need to know if

Those scores sound pretty good to me. When I was using Kaplan, I became very discouraged because I was only scoring in the 50s on the Question Trainer but I was getting low to mid 60s on the Qbank. But after talking to my Kaplan representative, she told me that the Qbank is actually harder and I thought that the actual NCLEX is more like the Qbank. I passed my NCLEX the first time with 75 questions and my final cumulative score was 61%! Good luck
