NCLEX-PN: 37 SATA and 8 put in order questions

Published

I took my NCLEX today and was shocked at how many SATA questions that I had on my test. My test shut off at 85 questions and so far, I have the good pop up on Pearson Vue. I left the testing site feeling good but now I'm starting to worry. I know the Pearson trick shouldn't be trusted until 24hrs after. Is it true that the more SATA questions, the better?

How do you practice for these SATA questions?!!! can anyone give me some tips?? I always get them wrong!!

The day before I took my NCLEX, I went to my Saunders question bank and got through about 70 of them, and I got less than half of them right. For me, it seemed like the NCLEX ones weren't as hard. My NCLEX seemed to have a pattern - when I knew I answered a question correct, it would go to a SATA and stay at those until I got it wrong, then it would go to a put in order question, and if I got that wrong, it would go back to the multiple choice. This pattern seemed to repeat to the point where I kind of knew what my next question type would be.
