Study scores too low to pass NCLEX-PN?

by chevyv

I'm scheduled to take the NCLEX-PN in less than 2 weeks. I'm using Saunders (book with CD) and recently purchased an online tutoring session from http://www.learningext.com/ (sounds like a Kaplan type?). I'm doing well with each lesson from learningext.com (90% and up), but am not able to get passed 70% with Saunders. I'm really nervous and was wondering if anyone is in the same boat or if I'm hopeless at this point? I'm studying a couple of hours each day so I still have time. I just feel like I know less every day.... Any advice will be appreciated.

Im in cali and also scheduled to take the exam in two weeks. Right now I am scoring from 75 to 80% on the saunders cd. Im using the exam mode and doing mostly the analysis, application and comprehension questions. What matters most is that you review each question and learn from the rationales. Im finding that with the majority of the questions I get, I am able to use the information on a totally different question later.
