I failed the ATI predictor. I received a score of 74.7 needing a 75 to pass my last class of the RN program. I have to retake our comprehensive class which I had a letter grade of an "A" in. I have done so many ATI questions. I want to know if anyone has experienced this and how to begin starting to study again for this test? I am scared I will remember the questions I have already done on ATI, which will be of no help. I do not want to go beyond ATI because I feel that it will not benefit me. I am trying not to feel discouraged but it is been quite difficult. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The NCSBN review, written by the writers of NCLEX, is considered to be helpful. My school recommends it to those students who need extra reinforcement, whether in a particular concentration or to improve your test taking skills. A friend of mine was being counseled about her ATI predictor and was advised to use it to study for NCLEX. She told me it helped her tremendously with prioritization questions in particular. I ended up subscribing for the three weeks or whatever the shortest time is they offer.....I was having severe anxiety about the test and remembered what K had told me about NCSBN. I feel it quite closely mirrored the type of questions on NCLEX, and very close to that ATI final.

I don't have experience with ATI. But I had a similar experience with HESI. I was supposed to graduate May 2015. But I couldn't pass the HESI Exit Exam after 3 attempts. It took 2 more until I was able to pass and graduate in July. I just took the NCLEX today, still no job. I found it very easy to discover free HESI (ATI for you) questions and tips online. Just google, look through threads on here, and try quizlet. You definitely wanna stick with prep specifically for ATI bc mixing resources tends to be confusing. I am sorry you have to experience this. I wish you the best of luck.
