I just got back from the beach! (sunburnt as anything!)
Can I vent? OMG. 265 questions! Ok, well I kind of knew I would have 265 questions, but I was really hoping to end at 75.. who wouldn't?! It's just when I take my kaplan quizzes I clearly am a fickle tester. My results are usually 5 right 5 wrong, 7 right, 3 wrong. I think I stayed around the baseline the whole exam! OMG I took 265 questions on the NCLEX!!!
I HOPE I PASSED!
I am told if you do all the questions all that matters is that your last one is in the "passing zone" aka an application and analysis one. And it was a question about therapeutic communication with quotes, could that be a comprehension or content question?!! I hope not!! :/:banghead:
I'd dread if i got 265,but i always think getting more than 75 gives one a chance to gamble than having 75&fail.I did mine on Thur,26th,got 75 ques with lots of SATA,havnt heard or seen anythg on the website as'm doing California.
Still crossing fingers until they r now almost having contractures.Can help by askg u to hang in there.Its not so bad,be positive.I try too but if it helps 2 cry,get one good one then laugh.I'd think a communication quest cannot be comprehensive.I dont know though i think its analysis.
Hi,i want to ask what kind of kaplan it is?I only seen Kaplan stratagy 2008-2009 at bookstore,never seen you guys said kaplan trainer 1-7,where can I buy it?help me pls....
I know it's easy for me to say this, but i'm sure tomorrow when I log on tomorrow i'll see a post from you that says "I passed!!"
You gave it your all, and now it's out of your hands. As I'm sure you know kaplan has a bunch of theraputic communication questions and some of those are in quotes, so it could be a application/analysis question.
I'm taking my test tomorrow at 8am and I really really really hope I don't get all 265 questions, there is no way I can sit still that long! Best of luck and try to stay busy!!
So happy I found this link!! My kaplan scores are horrendous:banghead: my diagnostic was 53%
my question trainers are as follows:
#1 -61%
#2- 59
#3- 48% WAS A VERY BAD DAY FOR ME EMOTIONALLY
#4 - 53
My q bank cumulative score as of now is 56%
have been doing saunders question because the boost uo my self esteem for I get 75%-95%
My readiness test I scored a 65%
I have three weeks before my exam and the stress is begining to get to me:no:
Any insight would be much appreciated guys... And congrads to those who passed and those who haven't your in my prayers
My advice would be not to stress! You have three weeks!
You need to pace your question trainers. Do 5 in three days, 6 in three days, and 7 in three days. Read your rationales, and make sure you understand it. Your scores will go up and down, 48 is only 2 away from 50, think positive. I had the same scores and I passed! It is all about the attitude.
Kaplan is all you need to study. Pay attention to the subjects you do worst in, take the worst subject for you on QT 4 and review all the concept and questions on the study center online. Then do all the Qbank questions for that subject, suddenly it will be your best subject. Then the next day take another QT. After that review the next worst subject for you. Pace yourself, you have three weeks. And take time off before the exam to do something you love to do. I went to the beach!

Collegegrad08 when you say do 5 in three days 6 and 7 etc. Do you mean stop in the middle of them and space it out over three days ? I thought we were supposed to do them in one sitting.
Thanks for the positive energy:D I DO have three weeks and I am having fun but I feel bad doing it like I should be studying.
Thanks again totally boosted my moral and I can go back at it
