I just took my boards on March 2nd. I got 75 qeustion and I did not think the questions was hard. I thought the questions that I got in school and Kaplan was harder than the boards.

Specializes in Telemetry.

same boat here..

I only use Kaplan for review questions.

When I was on the testing area, I'm thinking like I'm at home practicing questions.

Kaplan is really hard and give you tough time to go beyond their passing score.

My computer shot down at 75 and I passed. :D

I also got 75 questions and thought the whole time that I was testing that it was not difficult. I felt like I was rushing through it and I left feeling like I must have failed because I thought it was too easy---that I must have been given all low level questions. Well, I PASSED!!! Good Luck to you---I hope you get good news also!

Wish you the best!!!!!!

I had 125 questions :p . Tons of medications that I never heard of and I made it a point to study meds. I used Suzanne's plan to study and also Kaplan's strategy book. Lots of priority, 3 SATA and 1 medication calculation that was part of a priority question. I came out of the test not knowing whether I passed or not and determined that I was not going to cry until I received the results. Well, I cried tears of joy- found out today, that I am an RN :nurse:. You can do it too!!!!
