I was so confident going into this test today! I scored a 66 on readiness, my scores were all in the upper 50's to mid 60's and I felt ready. I walked in with a positive attitude and read to go...but that's not how it went. I got question after quest...

I have to admit that at one point I thought I might as well look into another career because I felt so dumb and always unprepared but things turned around for me. I graduated in May 2011 and tested the following August, 265 ?'s and 5 1/2 hours later ...

JUST DON'T GIVE UP!!!!! You can do this :) I wanted to give up so badly and just forget that I ever tried, but as I was thinking of what other career options might interest me I felt that nothing came close to how I felt when I was in the hospital ta...

I doubted myself too, even after I got home and did PVT and got the good pop up. After two times of failing I wasn't sure what confident felt like. I got my quick results and was so relieved to see PASS that I still didn't believe it, I think it will...

@nanajin Just don't give up!! I don't know what you are using for study materials but I used Hurst, Exam Cram, lacharity, Mosby's flash cards, and NCLEX 4000. I would do one subject at a time. Hurst broke it down into sections and I would watch their...

@sister7755 To be honest I never found a way to study SATA, I just tried to learn as much content as I could so that when I got SATA I hoped that it was something I was familiar with. Sometimes they seemed pretty easy but I did get a few that I had a...

I am so anxious/nervous/xcited/scared/and hopeful at this point! The first two time I tested I had all WYT ?'s and failed with all near passing results and I leterally cried during the test each time. I tested during the week and did PVT each time wi...

I used Kaplan before I took it the second time. My scores indicated that I would do good but because I was week in content I never really got to the higher level questions and stayed there long enough. Hurst was amazing and I highly recommend it, Kap...

Woo hop congrats to you as well!!!!!!!! :)

I was able to get my quick results already and I passed!! you should look, I thought it would take longer but was pleasantly surprised to see they were ready!

I got the good pop up as well...fingers crossed it still works :) do we have to wait until wed for unofficial results or Tuesday, this whole weekend thing is throwing me off lol

I am using Hurst now after failing with Kaplan. So far I LOVE it!!! Not only is it more content based which is what I need, but the videos keep you interested as opposed to Kaplan's monotone videos. I am following along with the videos in filling out...

First off I will give you my history. I graduated my RN year in May 2011 took boards in August and failed after 265 ?s, although I did kind of expect that because my study tools were a box of flash cards and my books from that year including NCLEX te...

Sounds like I made the right choice to try Hurst! Content is where I need the help and Kaplan didn't provide that for me very well, hoping the two combined will end in positive results! Good luck Begosh and Hope!!

Thank you!! I am so glad that it seems like it will help me with my content. I feel like if I can do well with content then Kaplan's decision tree can help me with the rest.

I am trying to figure out which way I want to study this time around, it will be my 3rd time taking NCLEX RN. The first time I relied on saunders and mosby's flash cards, the second time I used Kaplan. Both tests I got 265 ?'s and I didn't feel Kapla...

I was thinking about trying NCLEX 4000 but I had heard that it doesn't work with some computers. I have windows 7 and that sounds like it might be one that is incompatible. I was wondering if anyone has used the NCLEX 4000 disc with a windows 7 and i...

I'm almost positive my problem is content. I know that sounds stupid because I should know these things by now, but I have run into a lot of questions where I was like "What the heck is this question about??" and I would sit there for a while just t...

Sadly I don't really have one except for the CD that came with my Saunders NCLEX book. I didn't want to overdo it so I stuck to one think at a time. I liked the mosby's flash cards because of the rationales and that I took them anywhere with me and d...

I'm in the same boat as you, I took mine on the 27th and knew I failed before it was even over. I am just now getting over it and starting to fell like moving on with studying. I have heard a lot of good things about ATI but it is $430!!! I was think...

Well I appreciate all the tips and I will be ordering it today :) Another question though, Is this program a book/cd or just a cd?

Thank you!! I have failed it twice and I am thinking maybe working on my content will help this time, especially since I used Kaplan the last time I tested and that obviously worked out well for me lol.

This will be my second time taking this test, and I just want to pass it!!! The first time I took all 265 ?'s and I let my nerves, anxiety, stress, and anger get the best of me. I feel that I may have also rushed through it because of being timed. Th...

I think eventually everything worked out for her and she was able to test, I went in before it was settled but I think I saw her when I was coming back from a break. I did hear the proctor say something like she had to take them off and have them exa...

CONGRATS!!!! That's awesome news, gives people like me hope!!
