Predicting NCLEX-RN Success
that is the same score i received on ATI predictor but I've had a few issues with ATI and I dont know how much to trust them. Some of the answers are incorrectly correct. For example, I got a question wrong because ATI believes that lochia alba begins after about 26 weeks of delivery which is unbelievable. That's not even close to correct. nascentRN I must say you have probably the best nclex news and report of anyone that I've ever asked that has taken it. It's very helpful, and I feel some people never want to share nclex info and help others to pass. Anything you can say as far as which style of questioning nclex is similar too? If you've ever answered saunders, prentice hall (Hogan), Kaplan, and ATI questions which would you say mostly resembles NCLEX in terms of difficulty and answer choices. Meaning, does nclex have incomplete questions and answers like kaplan, are there always two obvious incorrect answers, are the questions lengthy? any other help you can give would be great cuz my test date is just around the river bend.

EKG, fetal monitoring, and immunizations
i feel unprepared for ekg strips differentiating between heart blocks. i know what meds to get them and when to defib and what not, but reading and naming the strip is a challenge for me. Of course Vtach and anything Sinus and atrial flutter are easy to me because of how they look, but as far getting in depth with p waves and widened qrs or whatever is tricky. I just reviewed the fetal heart monitoring and got it down so thats not an issue anymore. Immunizations is just like growth and development to me. It is unnecessary information one must know because there are charts for that while in real life practice. Also, G&D varies for each child so to learn that is ridiculous.

Predicting NCLEX-RN Success
Hello to all. I was just wondering as a prospective NCLEX-RN tester which predictor mostly resembles success on the NCLEX. I have taken so many different predictors and been trying everything to find out if I am ready to test. Basically I've done Kaplan, ATI, and Learningext. The Qbanks on Kaplan I always score in the 60s and on the Diagnostic and Readiness tests i score 67 and 65 respectively. Also on trainers 1-5 i scored in the 50s while on trainer 6 i scored a 64. ATI if anyone is not familiar with is another school based tool to assess readiness for NCLEX. The ATI predictor I scored a 76% which as per ATI predicts I have a 96% chance of passing NCLEX-RN the first time. I am also doing the Virtual ATI classroom assessments and thus far have passed all assessments over the benchmark of 60% for fundamentals, pharm, and med/surg. Learningext i only took the pretest and scored 68%. can anyone fill me in as compared to your scores on these same review tests whether my scores are low or high and ready to test. I would also like to ask someone for advice as in what to expect from the NCLEX-RN. Are the questions lengthy or brief. also, is nclex similar to Kaplan or Saunders, and which is hardest Kaplan or NCLEX. I know I'm asking a lot but I am very anxious about NCLEX because there is no way to gauge readiness. There is so much information it's nearly impossible for a nursing student without experience to be expected to know all that information. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you all.
