Hey Everyone!! SO sorry about it taking to so long for the update. But I PASSED!!!!!!!! :w00t:It was a really rough day. On the way to my test...one of my tires went flat. I made it to the test on time and decided to not worry about it until afterward. While taking the test...I could hear my heart beating super hard. When I hit question 75...I preyed that the test would shut off. And it didnt. Once I hit question 200 I knew that I would be the one to get all 265 and sure enough at 265 the test shut off. I walked out of the test feeling numb and exhausted. Now I knew I had to deal with my tire situation which ended up with me getting a new tire that night. After the test, I tried the PVT trick and I kept getting the "good pop-up". I could not believe that I had all those questions and still passed. That night I went onto the Kansas board of nursing website to see if there was anyway to look. I searched their license verification page, typed my name in and found myself with my license number listed on the website. I was soooo happy!! I was offically an RN!! After such a crazy exhausting day and hard hard studying I accomplished my goal. Now to get a nursing job! I do thank my boyfriend and family for helping me stay motivated and helping me when I needed it. I love them all!!! IF you have any questions feel free to ask...I'd be happy to help!

I take the beast tomorrow and very nervous. I do not have a ton of confidence in myself but I really want to pass on the first try. It has been a lot harder than I thought to not study all day. My boyfriend even made sure I didnt look at much all day and helped keep me distracted. I just pray I do well. So send me any prayers you can!! Ill keep ya'll updated!

Thank you so much for your posting. My scores are very similar and my test date is the 30th. I was nervous about it being so soon but your post is very encouraging. Thanks again!

Here are my scores: Diag: 60% QT1: 49% QT2: 55% QT3: 54% QT4: 50% Readiness: 58% Plan to take QT 5-7 within the next week. For the Qbanks I have only done 35% of them but have an average of 46%. Needless to say- Im starting to freak a little because I dont feel like Im improving much. Opinions?

Thank you so much for your reply! That does help! If you havent already taken your NCLEX...good luck!!

Hi. SO I am taking Kaplan on demand. I have to take it b/c my school said that we had to take a remediation course (such as kaplan) before they would release our transcripts which would allow us to schedule the NCLEX. So I have been enrolled with Kaplan on Demand...have taken the diagnostic, did some content review and taken the Readiness test. So my question is...when will I know i have completed the course? I need to find out as soon as possible so I can get my school to release my transcripts and I can get this train rolling. HELP!!!

When is the best time to take the readiness test? After you do all the content or after all the Qtrainers? Im a lil confused.

HELP! I took my diagnostic and got a 60%. I have only taken QT1-3 averaging 48% to 55%. I have been doing Qbanks and averaging 50%. When should I take the Readiness test? Part of me really wants to get my Kaplan done so that my school will release my transcripts and I can then schedule my NCLEX.

Hi. Im new on this forum but have been reading the different stories for most of my nursing school career. I am now taking Kaplan on demand and am kinda lost on what to do. I have taken the diagnostic test and Qtrainers 1-3. My scores are not that great and its making me nervous. Im not sure what exactly I should do next. I have trouble sitting through the long videos and keeping my attention the whole time. I have the Kaplan book, Saunders, Kaplan Stratedgy book, LaCharity. I just dont understand when I should take my other Qtrainers and when I should take my Readiness test. Scores: Diagnostic 60%, Q1 49%, Q2 55%, Q 54% Help is always welcome! Thanks!
