I totally understand I am taking it tomorrow.... I gone through feeling ready then not feeling ready. I scored 96 or 97 on the exit hesi. I scored 67 on diagnostic and 61-64 on readiness and I completed 75% of test bank with 70% avg? I scored in between 80-50% on the test. Those 50% scare me. What if the test is on my weakest areas I know it is not suppose to be but I am scared. Good luck with your test and by the way I looked online and 85% on US students educated pass the first so that is good odds. We just need to take a deep breath! Read our questions and answers carefully! We got this!

Good luck to you! With the scores you've been receiving on your readiness assessments, you should pass on this first attempt.

I did the test this morning and took 75 questions and it shut off. I did the pvt and I got the good pop up :) try it and see what happens. Good luck to you!

Hey Camwill,

Did you prepare with Kaplan? If so, did you find it helpful?

I used Kaplan and believed the questions helped.
