I completed my BSN program a few years back and finally decided it was time to test. Earlier this year I decided to hit the books using Hurst, Kaplan Qbank, and LaCharity PDA. To be very honest, most of the material felt new to me. Hurst was excellent. I watched the videos a few times and studied the material over and over again. Then I moved on to Kaplans Qbank but I did not complete more than 90% of it. I averaged 58% but towards the end I was scoring higher on tests. I'm a full time business owner and father of four so all of this took place approximately 1-2 hours per day with the exception of the last two weeks.
Today I went in to the test confident but very nervous and anxious. After approximately 30-40 questions I felt as if I knew a lot of the material. By the time I reached 70 I just prayed I wouldn't have to stay for all 265. I took a break (2 hour mark) at 74, sat back down and answered one question before it shut off. I had a lot of SATA questions but I felt Kaplan was much harder.
A half hour later I was sitting in my truck, very nervous, and very anxious to try the PVT. Pearson Vue showed "Delivery Successful". After trying to register I received the pop up "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Another registration cannot be made at this time." I hope it is still reliably a 99.9% chance that I passed! :)
