Passed nclex after low Kaplan scores

Published

Hey guys! I love this site and wanted to share my story with everyone in my position. I took nclex-rn today and got 250 questions. I got home, did the pvt trick and got the good pop up!!! I had about 27 SATA questions, a few drop and drag and lots of meds. I took Kaplan right after graduation and that's the only tool I used to study. My scores were never really about the "65%" that Kaplan wants you to get. I actually had some low 50's. I did 100% of the qbank and averaged at 60%. Dont base your knowledge or if you will pass soley on your Kaplan scores! Have faith and believe in yourself!!!! I totally recommend Kaplan to anything thinking about it because it helped me SO much on boards! It teaches you how to answer questions that you really don't know. I had a lot of questions on boards that I was clueless on but was able to still pass! Good luck to everyone taking boards soon! I know you all will do just fine! Ps. The day before the exam, RELAX! Do not study! Give your brain a rest! You won't regret it!
