Sure, I'm happy to help if I can! U-World was my primary method of studying. I studied for about 3 weeks and I made a plan so I knew which topic(s) I would be covering on which day. I did anywhere from 100-175 questions per day depending on what else I had going on. I also used Saunder's Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN Examination to supplement, but I found that I preferred doing practice questions on my computer. I honestly cannot put my finger on what exactly made the NCLEX so hard for me. I think it was a combination of things. I definitely had nerves working against me. During the test I remember thinking how shocked I was that neither my nursing program nor U-World prepared me to answer so many of the questions. I feel like a lot of the questions were vague (sometimes the wording was unclear) and there were so many SATA which are impossible for me. As for priority questions, there were a good amount. However, the answers were not as clear-cut as they typically are on U-World. I hope this helps a bit!

Thanks so much! I'll keep you posted!

Hi everyone, I took the NCLEX earlier today and I feel horrible about how it went. I graduated at the top of my class from one of the top 10 nursing programs in the country, I scored in the 96th percentile after completing U-World, and my RN-predictor exam determined I had a 99% chance of passing the NCLEX. Despite all of this, I was not confident in a single answer choice on the NCLEX today. Seriously, not a single answer. My test shut off after 75 questions and I feel confident that I failed. Thinking back, there is just no way I passed that exam. I did the Pearson Vue trick and it would not let me re-register for the exam (I received the "good pop-up.") Should I be reassured by this or should I still be very worried that I did not pass? I wish results were available sooner than 48 hours Thanks in advance!
