NCSBN Q-BANKS

Published

How do you find the difficulty of the NCSBN Q-Banks?

Is it safe to get 60% with the scores? I find them more difficult than Kaplan Q-Trainers.

I tried NCSBN way back 2012 and I absolutely loved it. I got 55-100 range and it was really helpful. Do not based on the scores too much. If it gets lower than 60%, just do some brushing up on that certain topic. Then go on to the next q-bank. Good luck!:)

Thanks for the advice!

I'm using NCSBN as well and I'm getting really conflicting scores. I've gotten as low as a 55% and as high as an 88%. My average seems to be in the low 70's range for most of the q-banks.

Hi, I took my NCLEX-RN today. I got 75 questions and the good pop up. Honestly, I stopped using NCSBN because it was making me upset/nervous due to the scores. I felt like Kaplan was better for me in terms of practice.
