Low Kaplan Scores

[wayemika]

ok so i know alot of people are always wondering so i figured i would air my dirty laundry as it will help some others.

kaplan

diagnostic test 45%

Q1 53%

Q2 37%

Q3 48%

Q4 41%

Q5 52%

Q6 45%

Q7 43%

readiness 45%

i had a 34.4% chance of passing with those score. i cried for a few hours and pulled myself together and went to my test. i got 265 questions with the bulk being prioritize and delegation questions and select all that apply. found out the next morning via the florida exam grade reports page that i passed.

words could not begin to describe how good i felt. i walked into that room thinking i would fail but like Al Bundy had to face the music and try anyways. walk out sure i faild. i did the pearson vue trick at the time hourly until the next morning.

what did i use to study? kaplan online first. remar to really grasp the content in a simple way and Lacharity (this was a big help. and has been as a practicing nurse as well).

i would say content wise kaplan was good. with that remar really helped understand the content better. the kaplan and Lacharity questions really drilled it home. and my kaplan scores were so low. made me sad. but if i can do it you can too. send mr your personalemail if you need some emailed resources. even know im done testing and have been for a while i still keep up with the newest things because i want everyone else to pass as well. oh and i passed on my second attempt. first time did not study and had a short attention spand of 30 questions at best. Kaplan really helped break that and build upt to 265.

Wayemika,

I am really happy for you! You did it, and you will never need to take this test again!

For those who are in this situation and have not tested yet:

While there are times that it works out this way, it is not advisable to take this risk. You can reschedule the test, and you should. Why take a risk? The test is hard, the test is stressful. Why risk going through it more than once?

[wayemika]

I remember back when I took it. That was the last day off my ATT. I don't know if they have changed things since then

It seemed from your original post that you just passed. What do you mean, since then?

[wayemika]

It's been some time since I tested for the nclex. But I always kept it a secret just how poorly I did with my kaplan q trainers. It seems like the last six months though I have been runing across people who felt like they couldn't pass and all was lost so I decided to tell people hope is not lost of this test. My new challenge however since the nclex has been on certified pediatrics emergency nurse exam. I'm on shot number two with this one as well. I'm a poor test taker but I never give up and I never want anyone else to give up either. I know people I tell not to give up always tell me ," you have already passed the nclex so that's easy for you to last." But we will always have some sort of nclex (test in life) to worry about

ok just to clarify after taking the nclex twice and hitting the maximum number of questions some co workers made me want to hide my nclex experience . But like I daud after talking to so many people about the nclex and them feeling the same way I did and gettin pressure from other nurses/co workers I just want people to know they can pass and that everyone has a chance:)
