Hey, Im sorry to hear that.. but dont let it stop you from reaching your goal. Sometimes you just have to find the right tool that works for you when reviewing. I used uworld and NCSBN for questions and rationales. If I do not grasp something or need something to stick I watch the videos from the spiderman summit review thing that is on youtube. I wish you best of luck!!

Congratulations!! reaching 265 is no joke! Its a mixed feeling of passing and failing. It feels surreal seeing that "good up" right? I kept checking to see if it will change. hahaha.. I live here in florida and my license status was posted not even 24 hrs. Congrats again! we did it!!

When will you be taking your exam? make sure you master the contents from hurst. I know I didnt finish watching all the videos but the videos that I did finish were really helpful. Goodluck!!

Hello everyone, So today I tool my exam at 8:00 am 10/24/2017. I went through the whole 265 questions in about 3 and a half hours. I had 30 SATA 1 ekg strip, 1 pressure ulcer assessment, and about 8-10 drag and drop, most of my questions were priority questions/ ER triage during a disaster. I remember about a few delegations questions, nursing ethics, parathyroid questions, lots of pharma, huntington disease, thyroidectomy and tracheostomy questions. About 20-30 questions about PPE/precautions. I did the PVT a few hours ago and got the good pop up. From what I've read people say it is pretty accurate so that is such a relief. There were about 10 of us taking the test.. sometimes I look around the room to see how many are still taking the exam.. some people finished at 75 and there were about 4 more poeple taking their test by the time I was done. Anyway, U world has been amazing for me. I did u world hand in hand with hurst.Hurst is really good with explaining the contents and making sure it sticks. I must say most of the questions in u world was tougher than the NCLEX. Also 5 days before I took the exam, I did an Adaptive computer testing and mimics exactly like nclex. I mean like questions will get harder everytime you answer it correctly and the level goes down if you miss some questions. It also stops the exam to whatever question it is in if you pass/fail the test. Just like nclex. Mine kept shutting off at the maximum number of questions which is 200. but the results told me if my probability of passing is low, good, or execeptional. It doesnt give you any rational and doesnt tell you what questions u missed but it gives you the areas that you are weak at. it's called platinumtest.com. I did it twice, the first attempt it gave me the probability of passing at "good", the second one "exceptional". Once I got those two results I spent the next three days relaxing and just going over the Spiderman packet that was going around this website. Hopefully the PVT really is accurate and that I can finally say that I am a U.S.R.N. :) To God be the Glory!!

Hello everyone, I am taking my nclex-rn end of september. I recently started doing hurst review. I took the 1st qbank test out of 4 just to measure where I am at. I got a 59% on the first test. I started hurst review and I like how they explain the core contents and concepts clearly. I am only half way through the videos and contents. Once I finish the videos hopefully by the end of the week, I will update this thread with my 2nd attempt score (hopefully I can achieve 70% and higher) if not then I will continue to re-watch the videos and take test 3 and 4 while also reviewing U-world. I have heard a lot of great things with u-world and I cant wait to incorporate what I've learned from Hurst with it. How is anyone else preparing for their nclex? I just feel like I am never ready... Has anyone passed the nclex recently? Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.hurst1.jpg - Google Drive
