Average Saunders score

[np_wannabe]

hey folks!

getting ready to take the nclex so i'm studying and taking the practice tests in the saunders book.

just wondering...

for you guys that used saunders, what kind of scores were you getting on your practice tests before passing the nclex?

i'm just trying to get an idea of where i need to be before i take it.

thank you so much!!! :loveya:

I average 60%.

On Saunders? I know a lot of people have mentioned 60% for Kaplan but other posts indicated a higher average was needed for Saunders. Not saying you are wrong, I just want to clarify because I'm using Saunders as well.

I used Saunders and was scoring between 70-84%. I specifically made my test of analysis and application questions which is what NCLEX-RN will duplicate. I passed on the first try with 75 questions and thought the test was fairly easy. Hope this helps.

just wanted to double check... did you average 60% on saunders and still pass nclex?

thanks, annfaith.

i've just started doing study sessions of application because that's where i continue to do the worst on my practice tests.

thank you for confirming what i'm doing.
