NCLEX vs ATI?

I'm just wondering if tests scores on various ATI exams are indicative at all of performance on the NCLEX. The school makes us take them and pass in order to move on in the program and they are supposed to mimic NCLEX format, so just wondering if there is a correlation there....

Yes...My school made it mandatory to use as well...just took my NCLEX RN predictor exam and scored 98% likely to pass on 1st try.and we just had a 3 day NCLEX REVIEW from ATI. Now what im curious about is how I will actually do on the NCLEX

The predictor is relevant to your potential to pass the NCLEX exam at the time you take the comprehensive predictor exam. It was relatively accurate for my class, at least those who chose to take the NCLEX within 3 months of graduation.

I took my comprehensive predictor in late June with an additional assessment in early July a week raduation (we were "testing" the exam out for ATI) and had a 99% chance of passing. I sat for NCELX that August and passed in minimum questions in less than 30 minutes (which truly confused the computer. :) I walked out very shocked and confused but paid for quick results 48 hours later (not a big believer in tricks) and passed.

ATI has pre-nursing assessments, concurrent nursing assessments used during a nursing program, and post-graduation NCLEX prep resources. However the NCLEX prep resources are only availa ble to those who are US educated. https://www.atitesting.com/Solutions.aspx

I am curious about this as well. I scored well on the comprehensive predictor with a 99% chance of passing Nclex. Students that have already graduated and taken Nclex have provided feedback to our school and said that they thought ATI was harder and prepared them well. Our school has a 98% pass rate on the Nclex so I guess we are doing something right!
