I'm feeling OKAY during my studies (reviewing Kaplan content purple book, doing Kaplan questions and Lacharity PDA questions daily)...I wonder if you ever feel "ready", you know?
I'll post my scores in a bit to receive some feedback from my peers in either the same situation or those who have completed NCLEX prep and successfully taken their boards.
Focused review tests (30 qs each) - av. about 60-80%
Q Trainer 1 - 72%
Q Trainer 2 - 73.3%
Q Trainer 3 - 7 I'll be doing over the next week
:)
Q bank - eh maybe 60-65% average? I did the whole q bank and I'm not about to add and divide for average lol
There ya have it thus far...what do you guys think? Will I ever FEEL ready?? I'll keep you updated on other question trainers, for those prepping for summer 2013 NCLEX - let me know how you are all doing.
Hey guys! Got home now from NCLEX, 75 qs, got the 'good' pop up. Happy but def want official results before I text-blast everyone lol this morning has been surreal

Thanks again!
Congratulations!! I'm super excited to be taking the NCLEX tomorrow. I'm glad to hear it wasn't that bad, sometimes reading posts on here about how horrible it is and all these people failing makes me SUPER nervous, even though I'm confident I'll pass too. Must be super exciting to be done, congrats again!

honestly my ONLYYYYYYY advice for everyone if I could say ONE thing is this simple...
DO NOT OVER THINK IT.
Seriously. Not going to lie, I thought it was easier than my nursing school exams and it was a walk in the freakin park compared to Kaplan. I think b/c I stayed calm, went with my gut and moved on. You will legit be fine. I walked out of there I think smiling lol Don't wanna jinx it but I think the hype and anticipation placed on the boards is what makes it 'hard'. I mean it's not like it's super easy BUT hello we graduated from nursing school...we know a couple things
I also finished my nclex exam this morning. I did not feel that I don't know nothing really it was not that difficult and when it shut off at 75 I had a good feeling. Now I am getting the good pop up :-)

You know when I went out off the test room there were couple of girls were staring at me because I was smiling . Loool I wanted to tell them to not freak out it was not that bad, but I did not want to talk since there were cameras every where and they might put me on hold if I talk.

LOL omg I prob was too and didn't realize it, prob looked like a fool lol whatevs! Yeah smart move, they are SUPER strict with their rules and I too follow them to a 'T' b/c it's not worth it! Can't wait til Wednesday for quick results!!!!!!!
I took my test this morning and it shut off at 75 questions in about 45 minutes. Definitely not that bad, I had prob 10-15 SATA. As soon as my test shut off I felt a huge pang of relief and knew I had passed. PVT confirmed that I passed. I left there confident in my test and wanting to cry with joy :)
