HI, I am going to be taking the ATI Fundamentals test for advanced placement into an associates program. I completed 3 semesters at another school, and had to leave during the 4th semester. Another school is going to let me do advanced placement. I have been out of school for 1 year and I covered so much material. I am trying to gauge what materials are not covered. I took the practice test and did pretty good without studying and just going off my past knowledge. I have to score a level 2 proficiency on the Fundamentals test. Can anyone tell me:
1) How many questions are on the test?
2) What score would correlate with a level 2 proficiency?

Level three, really? My school's level two requirements correlates to near-perfect first-time pass rates on the NCLEX-RNfor each graduated cohort. I would (politely, in letter form) ask your curriculum committee what data they base their requirement for level-three proficiency on.
We just took the ATI Fundamentals yesterday. On our test we had to make 69.9 to make the level 2 benchmark, however, it says on the ATI website that it is up to the school (don't know how true that is, so you should keep that in mind).
I'm in my last week of my first semester of NS. Unfortunately, there were some questions that were beyond our scope at this time. The test I took was 65 questions, but apparently only 60 were graded. HTH.
I just took my first ATI exam last week on Wednesday for foundations...I was super nervous, but I read through the book through the first 12-14 chapters and did the practice exams twice each & I scored an 83.3% We were only required to score a level 1 to move forward to medsurg, but a lot of students still didn't get that for some reason. Foundations exam did have a broad spectrum of info, but I didn't think it was too far out there considering what we've learned.
