HELP ATI comprehensive predictor :/

Published

Hi guys, so I did not pass the first ATI comprehensive predictor exam Form B, I got 74% and 75.3% is required, and I am really nervous because we have one more chance to take it again to graduate. We will be taking Form A this time. Has anyone had the same experience or knows anyone? pppllleeassseee helllppp me!!! should i just practice questions over and over? is the second test similar to the first?

I took both "A" and "B" and found B was easier than A. If your school opens up the topics to review section, I would study from that because the concepts covered stayed the same.

Make sure to do your focus review because there will be very similar questions in form B. I'm sure you'll do great!

I took both the comprehensive A & B. We were given A about 3 months before we were given B. Our teacher made us do an exercise, where if you print off your detailed results, it will tell you areas that you were weak in, and even more specifically what you missed, like. Blood Products, administration of PRBC. It will then list which ATI book the information came from, what chapter, maybe even pages? If you look all those up, and make an outline, or just read the information on the stuff you missed, that will be bound to help you. It was your overall score correct, not your likelihood of passing the NCLEX-RN on your first attempt right? What happens if you score below 75%? Best of luck mate!

so we are not talking about the TEAS test are we?

Thank you for the help! Do you mean for example, they had a question on Form B about ACE inhibitors, that same topic on ACE inhibitors will be on Form A just as a different question?

Basically they just came up with a new policy IN The Middle of the semester staying that if you don't pass the second time, you cant graduate, you fail the course, and you will have to repeat your preceptorship/practicum, and med/surg 2 class again (even if you got an A in the classes)...isn't that crazy?! so ya im very nervous, stressed, anxious, all of thee above right now and I take the test on May 4th...and yes 75% was my overall score, but i have a 94% chance of passing the NCLEX the first time...

Look at your weak areas on the breakdown of the ATI predictor B results, that will be a really good place to start your studying, because it is a good analysis of what you know. Take it like you would take the nclex. Good nights sleep, breakfast in the morning, dress for success!
