Hey everyone, so I'm taking my ATI exit exam on Monday March 30th, and I feel like I'm destined to fail! Does anyone have an tips, or MORE practice questions I can do to help me pass? Please help my anxiety level is through the roof!

One tip - when you do your practice questions make sure you read the rationales for ALL the questions, even the ones you get right.
Good luck to you on Monday.

I just passed mine with an 86% and a 99% chance of passing NCLEX on the first try. I actually spent a lot of time as I moved through my program trying to answer NCLEX style questions through a phone prep app. I did the tutorials on the ATI. I read rationales when I answered incorrectly. I worked to put theories into practice at clinical.
When test day came, I woke up early, ate breakfast, and went in with a calm mentality. I took time and read each question and answered based on ABC, pt safety, and infection control. If I knew that I absolutely did not know the answer to something, I made an educated guess and moved on. I did not waste time and blow my own confidence killing myself over the fact that I did not know an answer, or a drug, or a specific disease. It worked well for me.
