Help! NCLEX test in 4 weeks.

Hi everyone,

I took kaplan the last 3 months of my senior semester. After I graduated on the 19th our instructor recommended waiting until January to begin using our NCLEX prep materials since the holidays would make processing our applications delayed. I've had a rough time getting back into things, I took QT 1 on the 18th of Jan and form there would just do small mini q bank quizzes like once a day. I reviewed the entire pharm lecture on Kaplan's site and it took forever. I took qt trainer 2 on the 23rd and though I did better in pharm was weak in other areas. After reviewing the Health promotion content lecture and doing a view more mini q bank quizzes I realized my current study methods were not most effective.

I recently received my ATT number this week and have scheduled my test the first week of March. (Having a set date gives me a deadline/goal and helps motivate me). I've decided to change my study methods form studying one section at a tiem to making it more remediation-focused studying. The past three days I spent 2 hours reviewing qt 1 and 3 hrs reviewing qt 2. I have been looking up each questions (right or wrong) finding its corresponding place in my Kaplan book and reviewing the info, taking notes especially if I got something wrong. I feel this method will be more effective in my studying because I am over-viewing all areas of content and not one specific area at a time. I took q trainer 3 today (the last content trainner) and though I did not do as well as i would have liked, I do feel that if i continue my current studying techniques my scores will improve.

Between now and my test in roughly 4 weeks I will be doing 40-75 questions a day, and re mediating through every question. In addition I will be taking one qtrainner a week up to 7 days before my test. For instance for this week I am doing 40 qbank question tomorrow, 50 monday, 50 tuesday, 60 wednesday, qt 4 thrusday, 40 questions friday and 75 questions Saturday, remediating everyday and repeating this process for the 3 weeks after.

Have I caught my mistake? Does it sound like this process should help improve my scores. Below are my current scores for the 3 content based question trainers I did.

QT1 - 52 (75 questions total)

QT2 - 50.6 (75 questions total, missed one more compared to qt 1)

QT3 - 49 (100 questions total, 50 were application and analysis (SATA, priority, etc) - this is the test I changed up my study techniques, and though my score may not reflect it I felt I knew much more and was beginning to become more comfortable again with answering the questions)

I'm just nervous that my test is in four weeks...i know that's a lot of time to get my scores up to 60 but honestly any advice or feedback would really help.

Thank you!
