morningstarRN, RN 180 Posts Specializes in Triage, Trauma, Ambulatory Care. Has 3 years experience. Apr 18, 2012 I believe that Kaplan says to airm for 60-65% minimum on qtrainer 6 and 7. It looks like you are getting close to that range. I had a 68% on qtrainer 7 and passed the NCLEX in 75 questions. How do you feel? I believe we tend to put too much emphasis on scores and not enough on our confidence level. Do you understand the rationales behind the questions you missed? Go over all the questions even the ones you get and review the rationales and strategies. Do you have a good foundation of content knowledge? These are things to focus on as much as if not more so than your actual % scores.
vianey83 13 Posts Apr 18, 2012 Hey, Kaplan says aim for 60% on qt6&7. I took the boards last Thursday and passed with 75 questions! I probably got about 21 SATA, Meds and prioritizing. You will do great Kaplan did help a lot. The test was vey seminar to Kaplan questions. Good luck :)

vianey83 13 Posts Apr 19, 2012 -morenoeHey Kaplan is a prep course and it runs anywhere from $379-500. My class got a group special for $379 I chose the online course because it just worked better for my schedule. Go to kaptest.com and you should find helpful information about their course. Good Luck :)
