Any tips for taking NCLEX for 1st time or better yet am I ready

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I'm taking the NCLEX next Tuesday for the first time.

Honestly, I haven't been very nervous about it and have unfortunately kind of slacked off since I graduated in early December but since the date is getting closer I'm starting to get more and more nervous about it. Also I studied really hard throughout school and didn't receive anything lower than a B throughout any of my courses but by no means do I know that I am perfect; hence, I came to this website quite periodically and asked for so much assistance with concept maps at first :)

Also, don't get me wrong, I have been practicing questions from Kaplan and have finished all 7 question trainers with averaging:

- Diagnostic: 65%

- Readiness: 64%

- QT1: 72%

- QT2: 72%

- QT3: 56%

- QT4: 55%

- QT5: 53%

- QT6: 54%

- QT7: 63%

In addition, I'm about to wrap up with virtual ATI this week and hoping to get the green light as well as so far I've been averaging 60%'s and greater on all their assessments as asked to but there questions seem a little too easy sometimes at least compared to Kaplan then after that I'll be practicing on qbank questions mostly throughout the week.

Lastly, our school did also offer a final comp predictor with ATI & I did score an 82% on it with a 99.9% probability of passing NCLEX on first try but that was awhile ago and I'm sure I've forgotten some things since then and I never really trusted probabilities that much either so ANY TIPS at all I'd greatly appreciate it, thank you!!

In addition, this doesn't include questions I've done from the NCLEX mastery app as well as ATI apps I have on my phone as well. If I have time, hoping I can complete my last 1000 NCLEX mastery app questions as well!
