I'm repeating my exam and will take it in a few days and although when I study I feel much wiser and more confident. ...I think of the what if and it just drains my energy. It's a scary feeling honestly when it comes to repeating an exam. One tends to doubt self and the possible feels like...not impossible but just very difficult to achieve
I feel that I have improved so much since my prior preparation. ....I'm doing more critical thinking... I'm taking the time to see what the question is asking...I don't give in when I don't know the topic/content of the question I look for clues....I make sure to give the false answer a why reasoning...I make sure not be quick when selecting answers. ..ive gotten better with sata....I just feel better about it this time overall BUT I have those fears of "oh god what if I fail again. . What if I get one or two below minimum competency and score above on the rest and have to repeat all over again this dreadful thing...etc"
I pray every day I pass it. I study everyday to make sure I'm as ready as possible.
I recently took ATI comprehensive 2013 practice exam A I scored 67.3 which is equivalent to about 86-87% chance of passing. There were a few questions that I stupidly missed that could have given me a 70 ish score that could raise the percent of passing to a 90% but I'm not going to push it cause in the real exam won't let you slide cause you made a tiny error although you know your stuff.
I don't know what and how to feel anymore....I'm just fearing the worst. I am so tired of doing questions after questions. This was not the plan post graduation (and no one plans it I'm sure).
Please keep me in your prayers.

WTTW,
I know how it feels to be a repeat test taker. Do your best and never give up. When the timing is right you will have your license for sure. Just believe in yourself and never give up. Do as much as you can and do not over do it. You know more than enough when you are a repeat test taker. Just be proud of yourself that you are getting better than the last time.If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me.
I wish you all the best.

Aspiring Lpn-rn- do you have any tips in how to tackle basic care and comfort questions? That is my lowest section and I've only improved on that by a few percent

I used NCLEX-RN Mastery App for these type of questions.
