Can anyone tell me how the two online ATI practice tests compare to the real thing? I've taken form A and working on form B. The answers seem ambiguous much of the time. And while there are no questions about geology, there are some nuclear reaction questions, about which I know nothing.

I didn't feel that the practice tests helped very much. I studied for a month and did all the practice tests. I think the McGraw Hill study guide is a better example of what the test is really like. I would still study everything. Good luck and above all, know your chem and sentence structure. :)

I believe that both tests helped because I got a 75 and 76 on the practice tests and ended up with an 83 adjusted on test day. Since I took the practice tests only a few days before the actual test (and this was my only studying for the test BTW) I recognized some questions on the actual test from the practice tests. It's nice that you can go over all of your answers and click to see the justification for the correct answer for each section as well. Worked for me and I probably would have done better had I used the study guide.
I took the test yesterday and passed with and 82%. I found the practice tests online to be most helpful. A few of the questions were exactly the same! Woo Hoo!
