Hi!!! Welcome to the site! :balloons:

Being anxious is just normal but don't let it get over your head. Just concentrate on your review and try to answer more practice questions. Try to finish the whole Kaplan CD, because it really helped. Don't forget to relax once in a while...AND pray harder too.

I also got only 58-60% of the questions correct. With God's grace, I was able to pass with only 75 questions. Don't worry too much. It doesn't get you anywhere, believe me. Good luck!! I do hope and pray that you pass. God bless!!

by the way i only got around 60-65% of a 100 item test questions in kaplan review...is the percentage i've been getting from a bank of questions matters?

as long as you do many practice test, it will help you feel comfortable answering the questions on the real exam..i used kaplan's qbank too, and it did helped me feel comfortable answering the exam.i have similar experience with it, getting only 50%-65% correct answers, even my american co-workers said the same thing, and we all passed the exam on the first take. don't worry, it's normal to feel nervous as your exam date is coming closer. goodluck to you!

The NCLEX Discussion forum here under the Nursing Student Forum is very informative and encouraging. Try to read the threads there.
