hello!

I graduated from Texas and got my ADN on May and didnt get my ATT until the 31st. As soon as I got it, I got the earliest test date which was 06/15. I am going to share with you what i did to prepare and my results.

throughout nursing school we had to purchase ATI and we got a live review the last week which was exceptional. the instructor was clear and a lot of great tips were given. The best part was that we got a 30 day free live review from their website where it was recorded. I liked it because you could follow along all the subjects along with the lecture and more practice questions from their comprehensive printed book.

ATI Comprehensive NCLEX-RN PROBABILITY OF PASSING RESULTS:

03/2017: 98%

05/2017: 97%

I also used UWORLD! and let me tell you those questions are harder! however, it helps a lot with SATA questions because you get those a lot on the NCLEX. Also, I did notice some similarities. I used it for 2 months and my subscription ended right after I took the test. Another great thing were the 2 test assessments that give you a probability of passing. I took the first one right after graduating and the last one 2 days before taking the NCLEX.

UWORLD PRACTICE ASSESSMENT RESULTS:

SELF-ASS1: VERY HIGH (63%)

SELF-ASS2: HIGH (56%)

***my rating went down in one month***

Q-BANK: 61% (83rd percentile)

I had other nclex test software that I used throughout nursing school and books (saunders), but after graduating I only used ATI and UWORLD.

TIPS: DO NOT CHANGE YOUR ANSWER! and read the questions carefully! I remember Thinking I was going through them so fast that I had to stop myself every once and a while.

IT IS NORMAL TO FEEL DEFEATED AFTERWARDS! it does NOT mean you failed! Have confidence in yourself!

We work so hard to get were we are, remember that.

I started crying after I did the PVT 2 hours after finishing my test, so it still works.

I got the unofficial results in exactly 48 hrs despite it being a Saturday.

HAVE A LIGHT BREAKFAST!

don't go in there starved! You need the energy.

RELAX!!!

I was shaking when I got there but as soon as I started to do the first question I was focused.

***THINK OF IT AS JUST ANOTHER TEST FROM SCHOOL***

BE CONFIDENT AND YOU WILL SUCCEED!
