Just know your limit. I seriously was doing so many questions that I wasn't retaining anything, so the last few days I did anywhere from 50-75 questions/day. Understand why you missed it, was it knowledge deficit, not reading the questions right, missing a key point in the question? I did all the question trainers and the only reason I did close to 60% of the qbank was because it was a requirement for my last semester to do a certain amount every week. However, I can tell you that while Hurst did help me a bit with content, the yellow Saunders and most importantly Kaplan (trainers-didnt opem their book at all) helped me the most (also PDA). When you start the test, do a prayer and then pretend its a Kaplan test at home. Take your time, read each question carefully, and don't doubt yourself. If it doesn't sound right, it probably isn't :). Best of luck.
I take my NCLEX in two weeks. I was happy to find this thread that was aimed at Kaplan users like myself! I have completed qbank and qt 1-5 and all the nclex sample tests. I always always review my questions! I'm very anxious on if I'm ready for the nclex with the recent April change. I would appreciate any input. thanks for your truthfulness and help in advance!
Just an FYI my school did Kaplan integrated testing and I am posting these in order of taking them.
Nursing assessment test: 71.7 january
Diagnostic: 66.7 may
Readiness:67.2 may
School ends and I do the rest i June. Again in order:
QT 1: 62.7
QT 2:61.3
QT 3: 65
QT 4: 72.7
QT 5: 67.7
Sample test 1: 56
Sample test 2:70
Sample test 3, priorities:86.7
Sample test 4,alternate format: 38 (very hard! I think I'm weakest here. Althoughi have heard all my classmates doing in the same range. Unfortunately Kaplan doesn't give a good range for this??)
100% qbank:69%
I am saving 6 and 7 for one week out and three days out
The all overness of my scores is really what led me to posting here and I am never a super confident person!
