Practice test scores correlate with passing NCLEX?

Published

Hello,

I am scheduled for NCLEX-PN tomorrow. I have been taking the practice tests and for the most part, not doing very good on them. How many of you have had poor performance on the practice tests, but passed your boards? I dunno what the problem is. I made good grades in school. There are about a million things to know and I have never heard of some of these things. Opinions?

Thank you,

Gwen

I've been having a hard time with the Kaplan RN practice questions. From what I've looked up, it seems the Kaplan questions are harder than the NCLEX questions. NCLEX is more straight forward from what I gathered. I received good grades in school as well.

GL tomorrow!

You should be relaxing today if your test is tomorrow. Don't be concerned with the predictor tests. They don't always tell the story. Instead, you need to be confident in your readiness. If you truly weren't prepared, then you should have rescheduled. Just go in and put forth your best effort. Good luck.

Tomorrow was the only day available for the next month. I need money, so............ I'm medium, maybe a little more than medium in my confidence.

What in the world have I gotten myself into? LOL

I passed. I did the PVT the day I took the exam and got the good pop up. I was going to check my quick results this morning, but my friend sent me a text and said I passed. I got on the boards website and sure enough, I did! It was actually on there yesterday. WooHoo! That test was insane. LOL

Thanks. I only did 1400-1500 practice questions. While I was taking the exam and feeling extremely incompetent (lol), I thought, "I should have done more questions. My scores were too low." So much for that ,right?

My ideal mark is: score 65% or more consistently using several question books and answer 60 question in 60 minutes. I you can do that...take the test.
