NCSBN Scores: Please Help

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I bought the NCSBN 3 week program and so far all of my scores have been around 65. I am scheduled to take the exam July 1st, but I am wondering if I should reschedule. From the Saunders books, most of my scores are high 80's to 90's. Can anyone compare their NCSBN scores to their NCLEX result? Please help!

Thanks!:confused:

I did terribly on NCSBN...I found their questions to be strangely worded. I could never meet their "passing" standard of 75%. (Scored consistently in the mid 60's to low 70's range.) I switched to kaplan Q bank which is much more NCLEX like in my opinion. Still scored in the same range, but felt much better about it. I passed NCLEX last week with 75 questions. Good luck!!!

Do not take the test if you do not feel that you are prepared.

Thanks for the replies. It is nice to know someone else had a similar experience with these questions and passed!

I also did horrible on the NCSBN questions. I did the 3 week course as well and don't think I ever made a passing score! I took the NCLEX in 75 questions and passed despite those darn NCSBN scores, lol!

What did you use to study that you found helpful? Thanks!

I watched all the online Kaplan content review videos. I was too discouraged from doing questions as I kept getting such low scores. So reviewing worked better for me then questions

I made such great scores on the HURST and it's helped relieve my anxiety. Now I'm doing the NCSBN and it's made me the most worried I've been! Glad I'm not the only one doing horribly :(
