I have not took NCLEX yet, but there are too many rumors to know what is really true about questions and what they mean in regards to you passing/failing. A tip that I have read about SATA questions is to read each answer as True or False in regard to the question. Seems to help. Also, they always told us in school that there when answering SATA there will never be just one answer and it will never be all the choices.

Thank you!! Do you feel like ATI question style is similar to NCLEX? I read in previous comments people talking about NCSBN being similar to NCLEX, but have never heard of anyone using that around here. Not sure if it is worth my time or money to get the 3 week course when I am already 1 week away. I saw a comment earlier from you where you said that you did not like the rationales on NCSBN.

Congratulations to both of you guys! I always love to read of people's success. There is way to much negativity regarding NCLEX!! Would you guys care to share what you did to prepare? I graduated this May and will take NCLEX June 4th (1 week of studying left!!) I am currently using Rayfield (we had a 3 day NCLEX review in April) and do well on their tests my scores have been at least 75 or greater. I do have Saunders and LaCharity, but used so much through school that I am already familiar with the question and answers. NCLEX 4000 ATI on the comp predicator through ATI I scored a 96 (meaning 96% predicability of passing NCLEX first time). I think my weakest area would be Pharmacology. Do you guys think pharm was heavily tested? What about select all that apply? Thank you so much for any advice/tips!!

I have never heard of anyone (locally) using NCSBN. I only have one week left to prepare. I sit for the exam June 4th. I just graduate May 5th so a lot of the material is still pretty fresh. So far to prepare I have been using Rayfield and score above 75% with each test, PrepU through Lippincott (I have already answered over 2,000 questions using this program. It was a mandatory our last semester of school.), NCLEX 4000, and I do have the LaCharity book that I plan to look over. I used it a lot during school so I am already pretty familiar with the Q&A. Also had to take ATI throughtout school. Made a 96 on their comprehensive predicator (meaning 96% of passing NCLEX on first try.) Would you recommend NCSBN with only week left? And do you feel like pharmacology was a big part of your exam? Thank you for any advice!

Congratulations! I am still waiting to receive my ATT. Monday will be a week that I have applied. I was interested in looking at the study guide. Can someone post a link or email it, please?
