Took the NCLEX yesterday - the computer shut off at 85 questions - I really thought I failed because I got about 20 SATA questions and I didnt recognize 1 drug on my test. I was too scared to do the PV trick but last nite at midnite I got the courage and I got he good Pop up! I am very happy but wont be 100% happy until my final results but I am hopeful that this trick works!

My dad is taking his PN next monday, and I just wanted to know how you studied. This is his 3rd attempt, and I'm so worried for him. He's doing Kaplan and scoring in the 60s to 70s, and Saunders he is scoring in the 60s, sometimes 70s. I think his scores are great. What helped you in your studies?
Well the official results are in and I passed! Xbea - I took the Kaplan course and I just did questions every day for 4 weeks. Really I dont think there is a way to study - nothing that I studied (different diseases, etc) was even on the test. Basically I did all the Kaplan questions online and then went thru and reviewed each of them. Also I scored a lot lower than your dad so I am sure he will be fine - good luck to him!
