Passed NCLEX

[nsummer, BSN]

I found out today that I passed the dreaded NCLEX with 150 questions! A lot of my classmates so far have passed with 75 and reading on the forum it seemed many people passed with 75 or 265 which worried me for about two days. I felt terrible about not getting the minimum test score or even the max

Anyways, this is what I did to prepare. I studied about 3 and a half weeks total. I did the entire NCBSN course through my school for free and then paid $45 again to do only the questions which there is about 1,350 of them. I did 150 questions a day for 9 days. My school also offered the live Hurst review at a discount so I did that to review content. I spent my time re-reading the book, watching one or two lectures a day and doing questions. The weekend before my exam I did Hurst Q review for 4 days and on the 5th day I did two of them which was not wise and completely over loaded my brain. To supplement I did some free Kaplan exams from their website that were 50 questions and used NCLEX Mastery. The day before my exam I reviewed some more content likes labs, mnemonics (which really helped on may exam), and did some more mastery questions. I made sure not to over do the studying and went to bed early since my exam was at 8 am.

I hope this helps! Also if you get 75, 150, or 265 questions. Remember everything will be ok :)

Congratulations! I can't wait to officially put RN next to my name. I am currently using HURST and NCSBN for review. Did you find the NCSBN questions similar to NCLEX also how were your scores on their qbank. I find their questions challenging. Thanks and congrats again!
