Has anyone used Nurse Achieve Cat NCLEX prep and passed? I'm a repeat test taker and using Nurse Achieve. I have taken three CAT assessments. I failed my first CAT assessment, which shut off at 61 questions. I studied their content review. The second CAT I took four days later, I received a "pass-pass" and noticed I answered 53% of the higher-level questions correctly. Two days later, I took the third test and scored another "pass-pass." I always remediate all of the questions on the test to make sure I understand the rationales.
I must admit this is definitely a confidence booster. I even see my Kaplan scores have also improved. Im getting 57%-58% consistently on new questions in the QBANK and around 63% on the unused/incorrect combo bank tests.
My second attempt at taking the NCLEX is another month away, but I think I'm on the right track. Can anyone share your experience with Nurse Achieve Cat and your NCLEX outcome? Did you have a "pass-pass" and actually pass the NCLEX? Any feedback will be most appreciated.

Hello, I took my NCLEX yesterday (8/11,) so I still do not know if I passed or not. I did receive a "good pop-up" on pearson, so hopefully, I did. Anyways, to answer your question, I used UWorld, Mark K, and the 30-day free trial from nurse achieve. The first attempt I failed on nurse achieve, but I am chalking it up to my toddler daughter being on my lap and me not being able to focus. I did take more of the CATs and received Pass-Pass and Solid Pass after that.
Good Luck on your second exam, you got this!

CONGRATS? You got the "good pop-up," so I'm sure you passed! Thanks for the encouragement. Should I wait until I receive a "solid pass" on Nurse Achieve CAT before I retake the NCLEX?
@Stevo40 I don't think you should wait, but you'll probably get there before your next test date. After a few tests from the nurse achieve, I began to recognize some of the questions. Therefore, I would not solely use just nurse earn if I had access to other resources. Good Luck!
Thanks. I also have Kaplan QBANKs as well. I plan to take the sample tests the week before my exam. I will update you.
Hey, I just wanted to update you that I did pass! My license showed up this morning. Aside from Kaplan and Nurse Achieve, have you heard of UWorld and Mark K? My school offered Kaplan too, but I wouldn't say I liked it as much as UWorld.
I knew you passed. The good pop-up told it all? Congratulations once again!?
Thank you, and you got this! You'll get a good pop-up soon!

Thank you and you got this!! Youll get the good pop up soon!
I passed the NCLEX-PN yesterday with 74 questions. I never got over a "pass-pass" on Nurse Achieve LPN CAT exams, & it was accurate.
Now I can get a job and help support my family after almost 3yrs? I have resumed my studies for the NCLEX-RN next month. I'm back, baby. YEAH!
Yay! Congratulations!

Hi Friends,
I passed my NCLEX for the Illinois state board last week, and now I don't know how to receive my license. If I try to call them, they don't answer my call. Can anyone please guide me, if you don't mind? Thank you.
