Passed 1st Attempt!

Published

I took the NCLEX on 4/27/19. Tried the pop up and got the good pop up. I called the Iowa BON the next day and she said I passed! I went through 235 questions on the test and wasn’t sure how I did.

I had actually graduated from Mercy College 4 years ago and had a lot of anxiety about taking the NCLEX. I only studied the ATI that the college had subscribed to and then bought Kaplan Q Bank of 2100 questions. In total I studied around 4000 questions off and on for 3 months. It was very fulfilling and satisfying to pass the first time. I hope this will help give some guidance to those who are stressing over this exam and that it can be passed! ?

congratulations! Did you spend more time studying ATI or the Kaplan questions?

I read what ATI was still open to study. I went through those questions 1 time the all Kaplan Q bank 2100 q’s 1 time then started going through the Kaplan questions that I had missed. I also read once Anthony Guerra’s Pharmacology book called Pharmacology A Relaxed Approach.

Hope this helps some!
