I passed!

For anyone freaking out because of all the people tha are coming here saying they failed, here's one that passed on their first try :) I will be honest, I did not study very much. I did the Hurst live review, watched their videos online, and did two practice tests with 125 questions each, and that's about it. I did a 3 hour study session with a friend two days before I took my exam and the night before I looked over my normal lab values to make sure I knew them (I would really recommend this, it was helpful to know for the exam). I didn't spend weeks studying, I didn't do thousands of questions, and I passed in 40 minutes with 75 questions.

My biggest advice is test as soon as you can after graduating, I waited less than a month but in all honesty, I would have been ready just two weeks after graduation. The test itself I thought was a bit difficult (a lot of SATAs), and I wasn't sure I had passed as I felt like I was making a lot of educated guesses. But I got my RN license today, so even if you feel like you failed when you walk out, that doesn't mean anything! Good luck!

What advice could you give for someone who was an average student in nursing school and a little weak in content although reading over content now and averaging in the 60% on Kaplan questions?!? I freakin out over here with my test coming up on the 15th!!!

I don't know anything about Kaplan, as I did Hurst. I really feel that studying test taking and how to answer questions would probably be more helpful, as most of my questions were over content that I didn't really know that well. I had a lot of management and delegation questions.

Comgratulations ! u finally jumped over the last hurdle of nursing ;) ..
