9. God is so Good

   Snowman22 replied to joyweib's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   Congrats. Looks like I need to pray to St. Jude. I took my test last Tuesday and have not been issued a license. I am guessing I failed so I feel like it's a lost cause. I have given up hope and plan...

    Suzanne, you are right. I am sorry for creating a similar thread. Although accusing me of spamming is quite harsh. Maybe I should have posted my second thread 1st. This thread is asking who took the...

15. Kaplan grades depressing

    Snowman22 replied to BettyBoo706's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If you're consistently in the 60s then you are absolutely fine. Everyone I know who took Kaplan was getting low 60s passed. It's tough to be consistently higher than 60. I was told that if your Kaplan...
