What were your practice scores like (and with which source)?
I'm curious to see how the grades on Saunders, NCLEX3500, Lippincott, etc... translate into passing (or failing) the NCLEX.
Thanks!!

praise god from whom all blessings flow
yesterday i found out that i passed the nclex, the computer shut down at 75 questions. pay close attention, these were my kaplan scores in the questions trainer:
q1 47%
q2 48%
q3 52%
q4 57%
q5 60%
q6 54%
q7 47%
now if these were not discouraging scores, then i don't know what. but i recruited the prayers of all who i came in contact with, and pleaded for them to pray in my behalf. by the way i had tons of sata of which i scored 7% on the kaplan q bank test. i know is easier said than done, but i give you this testimony to reassure you that god's plan will prevail regardless of the obstacles or mountains or discouragement you might face.
praise him for he is worthy to be praised

Thanks for this thread! I was starting to freak out with the %70s I was getting on the Saunders tests.Now I feel a little better. I am finishing up my friends Online Kaplan (taking test 6 now) and I am curious to see what my scores are on there. The Kaplan questions seem to be a little easier (ormaybe just more to the point) than the Saunders and my friends who have taken the NCLEX say the questions are just like the Kaplan ones.

60% and up on Saunders. I did not purchase Kaplan's Qbank. I did the review course and got a 73% on their readiness test. I passed with 75 questions on 7/2. Went in the testing center at 1330 and was out by 1412.

I used Kaplan Complete Review
QT1: 52%
QT2: 53%
QT3: 52% (june 7th)
QT4: 56% (june 10th)
QT5: 59% (june 15th)
QT6: 61% (june 23rd)
QT7: 66% (june 30th)
Diagnostic: 55%
Readiness: 72%
passed with 75 questions altho i was sure i failed. continuous studying showed improvement and it sure felt good. altho i personally feel the nclex was WAAAYY harder (but many people disagree with this)
Thank so much everyone! I'm feeling better about my grades now. I was a consistent B+ student in every nusing class (with a couple of As thrown in), but i've heard that that doesn't necessarily mean anything... the nclex is in a league of its own lol
