NCLEX second time, used kaplan, ncsbn, petersons. will i pass???

Published

Hi guys this is the first time for me to post something here.

So this is my story, i just took the nlex exam last september here in Oregon and failed it. it was really sad. i used up all the questions in the exam. and i was so sure that i failed coz i didnt know how to prioritize and delegate. and after 2 days i got my rezult!! failed.... after that day i borrowed kaplan from the lib and studied it, bought ncsbn, and kaplan qbank. my average score in kaplan was 62. im sooo nervous coz im gonna take it again this thursday!!!:crying2: I also bought petersons. which i think is good too. do you think ill pass the nlex with my average score of 62? my scores in kaplan were like 55 percent to 77 percent. and a lot of them were 60s. Im really nervous. im hoping some of you have the same experience as mine. i need some enlightenment. thankyou!!:redbeathe:D:crying2: (mixed emotions)

PS, this site is so awesome!! all the people here are just soooo nice!

Sixty-two is GOOD! Kaplan stresses that you are expected to get 50% correct in the band of passing. I consistently scored in the low to mid 50%'s on my Kaplan qbank questions. I passed on my first try in 42 minutes, shutting off at 75 questions. Good luck! I know you will be just fine!

I was just in the same boat as you--studied all the books saunders--kaplan--and failed--took the kaplan qbank and my percentage was 75% to..just took the 2nd test went the hole way of 205 question again and thought for sure i failed--got my results on nove 14 and i passed..so kaplan qbank helped me so much--i read the question on the test twice and thought about the answers and did alot of praying lol you can do it just believe in yourself

wow thanx for the boost of confidence guys... im so nervous im gonna take it tommorw... ugh! butterflies in my stomach... i can feel them...
