Have i studied enough?

Published

I am using Exam Cram and Saunders and scoring between 70% and 90% with an average of low 80's. Is this good enough or should I reschedule? My test is on Tuesday so I have to decide by Sunday July 12th. Ideas, comments would be appreciated.

Don't worry too much about the scores. If you think you're ready, and you go in with confidence you will be fine. Just trust yourself, and your answers. I just took mine yesterday, and now I know what everyone means by no matter what you're never going to think you've done quite enough. So is two more weeks going to make a difference if you've been studying consistently--most likely not. Good Luck!!! :yeah:

Your scores look good. But more important than the scores is whether or not you have a good grasp of the material. If you feel that you do, then by all means go ahead and take the test. I really see no reason to reschedule. Good luck.

Your score doesnt mean anything..sorry. Its a pass or fail exam.

The NCLEX is pass/fail but practice tests scores help narrow your focus to areas that you may not have a good grasp. For instance, my lowest practice test score was 70 and it had a lot of maternal/newborn questions.

I would dearly love to have a bonfire with nursing text and test prep books and make s'mores for all of my friends. Wait, I have been a nursing student for so long I don't think I have any friends left!!LOL

I can't study one more minute. I am just going for it. :bugeyes:

Thanks to all for the feedback.

I had a bonfire at the beach after graduation. We all burned our ugly white nursing student uniforms. It was a blast!!!

It is just tooooo much! And then FORGET ABOUT ALL THE DRUGS!!!

I am also testing on Tuesday! Your scores sound good though, I think you are ready. Just relax on Monday, get a good night's sleep and go in there on Tuesday with the confidence that you WILL pass. Good luck!
