    Scheduled my exam! Any one else testing next week? (July 7th)

    SopranoKris replied to SopranoKris's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    How To Tell If I Failed NCLEX-RN 2015

    SopranoKris replied to Missred9's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You can't tell whether you passed or failed by the types of questions. It's the content of the question that determines if it's high level or not. I know the 48 hour wait is excruciating, but getting...

    64 on the readiness is GREAT! Anything over 60 is what you want. Technically, you only need 58% above the passing line to pass NCLEX. So, you can do it!
