hi everyone! i took my nclex this morning and i got the good popup. i will feel completely relieved once i have my name on the bon website, but this is promising. it shut off after 75 Q and i was so happy. it was tough- literally 30-35 questions were SATA. which i HATE!
just wanted to post because i always loved reading when others posted about passing :) good luck to everyone who still needs to take it!

congrats and big celebration thats great.....now can u plzz guide us h0w u kill the monster....thanks
We did a lot if ATI in my school and I definitely think it helped. I had the Kaplan book and did the cd with the 180 questions. I also have Saunders and did lots of questions. I bought the NCSBN but I didn't like it so I didn't do much on it.
I liked the Kaplan book for strategy a lot and just to have access to more questions. I liked Saunders for content and I really like Saunders rationales. I did well in school so I wasn't going to spend money on the Kaplan review course. I probably only averaged 40-50 q a day ( some days more others less). Just doing questions and staying in the mindset and reading every rationale helped me.
I had about 30-35 (maybe more?) SATA. There were a ton. Most if he rest were prioritization. No math and few Meds.

the sata what kind of questions did you get? how did you tackle the sata? i know they always say true or false but kind of random questions did u see on sata
Can't really talk about content but I just read and retread the question and looked at each answer. I could eliminate some right away and choose some right away. The ones I was unsure on I tried to think it through and select or not select that option.
no you dont have to talk about the content. was just wondering if the queations were more of medsurg or pharm you know but all the same thanks
Def more med surg!

Congratulations and thank you so much for the insight and advice! :) For the Select All That Apply would you say some of them were doable or were they all a shot in the dark so to speak? I have found that many of the Saunders SATA are reasonable but I'm worried the NCLEX will be much worse.
