hi all,
my nclex is next tue @ 115pm...ive gone through the content vidoes on the kaplan site and done all 7 of the qtrainers..i am now finishing the qbank questions and have about 400more to go.....is there anything else i should focus on???

in a couple of days i will start memorizing the lab values and developmental stages and will look over certain content that i cant see to remember such as hypo/hyperthyroidism, myasthenia gravis, myxedema, etc.

am i forgetting anything???? maaan i just wanna take this test, pass it and never have to deal wit it EVER again!

Re: ONE more week to go..should i be doing more than q's?!?!

Hey I take my NCLEX on Tuesday @ 3pm, I'm nervous!!!! I"ve heard oncology drugs, mental health drugs, and hep E. Good Luck!! Remember trust in the Lord, with him all things are possible!!!

Re: ONE more week to go..should i be doing more than q's?!?!

I would continue doing questions, but maybe take a "breather" and read that content you mentioned.

Review medications, what you would use them for, and any weird side effects or admin. instructions

Good luck. I had 75Qs and have joined the nervous waiters. Every day I become less convinced I passed.

Re: ONE more week to go..should i be doing more than q's?!?!

good luck to u...i pray that u passed.yes i will be reviewing my kaplan book again..and once im done wit qbank im gonna do q's from some books that i have.

Re: ONE more week to go..should i be doing more than q's?!?!

hi! i'm taking the test on August 16. I feel like im starting to cram already...i don't know what to do first everytime i get up in the morning, whether to answer questions or to keep on reading nursing contents. I'm just lifting it all up to God. I'll be praying for everyone of us here who will take the exams. God bless you!

Re: ONE more week to go..should i be doing more than q's?!?!

what are your tests scores for the q trainer and q bank?

i'm in your boat and i'm scheduled to take it next week. strangely, i took an ATI exam and it said I had a 95% chance of passing. but my Q trainers are in the high 50's and is killing my confidence

i know people who passed with high 50's in q trainer.. but still my confidence is shot

Q1-65%
Q2-56%
Q3-62%
Q4-58%

haven't done Q5-Q7 yet...im kinda scared as to what scores i'm gonna get. my faith is the only thing that's holding me up.

we'll all be fine. just continue answering questions and prayers, prayers, prayers. God bless you!

Re: ONE more week to go..should i be doing more than q's?!?!

i was consistent with variations of 50% on all my qtrainers...my qbanks for some reason have been slightly better but still in the 50-60% range.

wats the ATI test??
adn yes i have also known ppl who have passed even when they didnt do too well on the qtrainers.

Re: ONE more week to go..should i be doing more than q's?!?!

looks good janina. they say 5,6,7 is the one that's most like nclex. esp. 7.. so if ur scores are like that for for those q trainers should be good i'm keeping positive!

ATI has a website.. i forgot what it stands for though. anyhow it's www.atitesting.com i think... they have programs etc.. but a few nursing schools make us take it to see our chances of passing the NCLEX.

Hi
Just found out I passed so I wanted to give ya'll an idea what my Kaplan scores were:
Qbank 61%
QT1 62%
QT2 64%
QT3 52%
QT4 62%
QT5 65%
QT6 64%
QT7 63%
I passed with 75 questions. My advice is to do all question trainers, qbank, and redo incorrect qbank questions. really try to understand rationales for questions you got wrong. also study diseases/drugs that keep coming up on kaplan-addison's, sickle cell, cushings, beta blockers, antipsychotics, TB, hip replacements, traction, etc.
Good luck!!
