NCLEX/ATI

Do not equate predictor tests with NCLEX readiness. It can go either way.

I would like you people to tell me which area to concentrate for the ATI exit exam. I am very nervous about it.

I am waitting for your suggestions.

Thank you

have you taken the ATI comp predictor yet? it breaks it down for you when you are done. there was bioterrorism questions that threw me off... there was alot of nutrition for dieseases ie) chrohn's...hope that helps you out.

Yep, I have taken them and scoring between 80-90. Thats why I was asking... We are taking our proctored ATI's and I am scoring great for first time ati's. I was just wondering how accurate they are at passing NCLEX :) Thanks!

ATI was all that I used for NCLEX prep, and I passed in 75 questions, so it worked for me. I think the style of the ATI questions was very similar to the NCLEX question. On the comp predictor I forget the exact score (80? 83?) that I received, but it translated to a 99% chance of passing the NCLEX at that point. We took the predictor at the start of our last semester though, which for me was the beginning of September last year, so I used the ATI tests to brush up a little and practice NCLEX style questions prior to my testing date, which was a few months after my December graduation.

Hope that helps.

For the poster asking about what to study for the comprehensive: Study everything. Peds, leadership, community, OB, psych, m/s, it was all on it. Look at your older ATI tests and see where you were weak, work on strengthening those areas.

I thought ATI was pretty helpful. I like how it tells me what my weak areas are, and I made sure I looked at those. According to them, I had a 96% chance of passing on the first try. I did end passing on the first try. Good luck!
