Congrats! I take Kaplan review class Jan 2nd and hope to take NCLEX end January I hope I am as lucky as you are.
I have been on this site multiple times and found many encouragements from it as I study for my nclex and wanted to share my story. I only used kaplan qbanks and the trainers, my scores ranged from the 50s and 60s. I reviewed ever qbank and looked up anything I did not know or understand. I passed nclex on November 20th 2012 with 75 questions. I did the PVT about 15 mins after the test and got the good pop up. I called Virginia BON verication number the next morning and it was confirmed that I was officially a RN. The nclex had very basic questions, the kaplan in my opinion seemed harder then the nclex. I hope this helps anyone who may have had doubts about kaplan as I did at first. Good luck to the future nclex rn test takers.
@nursingfem007 take a break when u get overwhelmed, I was feeling the same way and just took a day to myself to refocus, ur scores are similar to mine so I am sure you will do fine, just review and understand the rationale and try not to be sick to ur stomach as I was on the day of the test :-)
