OK so my problem is this i graduated on august i been studying for the the NCLEX i been using Uworld and Kaplan
my school has a 96 percent passing rate i feel ready for the nclex
for the pass 3 months my school has been giving me kaplan test twice a week from 75 questions to 180 questions on all i scored a 60 or higher (i would say about 8 kaplan test)
my school also gives hesi exam one i took yesterday of 160 questions they do not give you the score but you can see all the questions you got wrong and i got 62 questions wrong
62 out of 160 questions equals 61.25 percent
my school scheduled me for next week how ever i got a e-mail today saying they want to keep preparing me for another 2 weeks
in truth i don't have another 2 weeks my wife is pregnant i have a 2 year old and rent is due soon i stopped working just to get this out of the way
i don't know if i should take the test next week or wait two weeks
everybody in my school says that they over prepare you but i just don't know

Hi! I'd look really deep inside myself if I was you- is it better to take those 2 weeks and overprepare and not be that 4% that fails at your school and pass, or Risk a 45-90 day waiting period along with another $200 to sit for another shot?
I'd listen to your school on this one if it were me... they have that super high pass rate for a reason- they know what they're doing.
Good Luck
