HELP :( I need confidence for NCLEX 2013.

Published

Hey guys... so I took HESI Exit at my school and ended up with 1076 (first time) and 990 (second time). My Kaplan qbank scores are

Q trainer 1: 81%

Q trainer 2: 76%

Q trainer 3: 57% :unsure:

Q trainer 4: 62%

Q trainer 5: 71%

I have almost finished the test bank and am getting 75-80's on the 50 question tests.. I am freaking out about minor details and select all that apply.. I just am not feeling confident and have roughly 7 days before the big day...Any suggestions how I should use my last bit of time besides qtrainer 6&7?

Thank you so much!

you seem more than prepared for this. Now you have to fake it to make it. That means putting your best foot forward.

Hint: try to realize what the question is asking for: intervention, assessment, etc.

You seem prepared already! I passed my NCLEX-RN even my Qtrainers are in the 50s! Just be a safe & effective nurse! Good luck on your test! :-) stay positive!!

I get freaked out about the SATA. I don't know if you have the same Kaplan that I do, but they have a Sample Test 4 that is ALL SATA. It made me much more comfortable with that format although I only got a 26% the first time I took it! My scores are a little lower than yours on the Trainers but still pretty good. I don't have my ATT letter yet, so I just keep plugging away.

Oh really a sample test 4? It's not q trainer 4 right?

Make sure you eat a good breakfast before you test. I studied also using the Kaplan system; those questions were MUCH harder than the actual NCLEX questions. The day before your test, I would recommend NOT studying and doing something relaxing. Your qbank scores are great.. Sounds like you have worked hard and are well prepared.

I wish you the best... You've got this:nurse:

Yes. It is under the NCLEX prep tab. one line says Qbanks and the next says Qbank sample tests. Pick the 4th one.
