I'm wondering if anybody purchased these and how they did? They are the NCSBN ones that were suggested in the ATT email. I've taken both, averaging 85 out of 125, but there is no further information on what you should be getting when taking these. I just can't help but feel like that is not meeting a high enough score to pass the actual NCLEX considering you can't review or look at what you missed.

Are those the $150 ones meant to mimic the actual NCLEX?? I was curious about them but they just felt too expensive. I used the predictors on UWorld and Kaplan which my school provided for free.

Yes, they are old NCLEX questions from previous years. It is expensive but I did feel like it was worth it to get an idea of what the test would be like. The major downfall is that it gives you a score, but doesn't tell you what you should be getting and doesn't let you review what you missed.

I would also like to know what these test scores mean. $150 for two practice tests is expensive. It seems like the NCSBN should give some type of analysis of what a score of 85 out of 125 questions answered correctly means. Is it likely that you will pass NCLEX because the test only requires that about 50% of your answers are correct, or does it mean that you have a 65% chance of passing the exam? Could someone at the NCSBN or one of the nursing professors who frequent this site help us out with this one? ? Thanks!

Hello,
I just took this test and got 62 percent. I want to know if you passed the NCLEX? Paying 150 for this feels like a waste and is so discouraging. What is a "good" score on the NCSBN practice exam?
I passed the NCLEX, but I think paying $150 for two practice exams without any kind of explanation of your results is a waste of money.
