In my experience, if you're sitting at or above the averages when taking the practice tests you're in good shape to sit for the NCLEX. However, there were several practice exams that I scored below average on! My average in the Qbank was around 62%, ...

Hi everybody! I just wanted to share my experience with the NCLEX and hopefully offer some reassurance to people who are in or about to be in this position. I took the NCLEX today, shut off at 75 questions, and had an active license on my state's BON...

I've heard great things about Hurst. One of my friends from school used it exclusively to prep for the NCLEX, and she passed with 75 questions. Best of luck to you!

I second this! I only used the tutor mode. It's more about learning how to answer the questions than working well with the timer, since you're given 6 hours to complete the NCLEX. Good luck and keep us posted!

Sure! On the first assessment I scored a 64% which put me in the 77th percentile. Second one I got a 66% which put me in the 84th percentile. I think if you're able to score a "high chance" on the UWorld assessments then you're in good shape. Focus m...

Hello everybody, hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. I'm hoping to get some advice/encouragement for my second semester of nursing school. I am in a 2 year ADN program that is notoriously very rigorous in my state. I feel very lucky and prou...

I certainly thought A&P 2 was more challenging. I took it with a different teacher, and had to learn a new teaching/testing method which made it more challenging. I managed to earn a grade only 2 points lower than A&P 1, which I was happy wit...

Hey everybody, I'm looking for some advice. Or reassurance, I'm not completely sure. I got accepted into a very rigorous 2 year ADN program, and was absolutely ecstatic to start. I had my clinical orientation in June, and was definitely feeling the p...

I am still a student, so I apologize if my post seems out of place amongst the rest; I just had to interject. I am gay, and everything regarding the Orlando shooting has hit me in ways I never thought possible. No amount of schooling or life experien...

Get the ATI testing manual and then look up "Keshwani Prep" on Youtube. He teaches the entire math section of the manual page by page and gives you tricks to better understand everything. Not to mention he's very funny! I hate math and the math secti...

There weren't too many chem questions on the exam. However I will say that it can be kind of difficult to teach yourself the basics if you haven't taken the class in awhile/at all. I don't think it's necessary to finish the class first in order to do...

Hey everybody! So I took my TEAS V today (1/22/16) and scored an 83.3 overall. That places me in the "Advanced" category, in the 93rd percentile nationally, and in the 94th percentile for my program. It's not AS great as I would have liked, but then ...

[email protected] :) I wish I had PM privileges! Feel free to shoot me an email. (I guess I shouldn't assume you're talking to me, but I am haha)

LOL the teas will do that to ya! Good luck studying, I promise your sanity will come back once the exam is over yes, anyone who comes across this thread: PLEASE do yourself the ultimate favor and look at Keshwani's vids. You will genuinely learn to ...

I didn't find that one either, but I highly recommend checking this one out if you haven't already. It is by far the most in depth post I've found regarding the TEAS, and it helped a lot! https://allnurses.com/teas-exam-help/how-i-passed-804222.html...

I personally had no questions regarding tissues or nervous system, though I really wish I had! I have to say, there is very minimal human body science on the exam, which is a huge bummer when that's what you know well lol. I had a question regarding ...

No, in face the only somewhat similar question I had asked me to write an equation for the work rate but not actually solve it. I had one or two probability questions. One was about candy, that one tripped me up and I'm still not sure I got it right....

Ha! I think we'd all avoid this damn exam if we could. The science definitely threw me, as I know it does for many other test takers. I had a really in depth codon chart question, and a couple other questions that I just did NOT know how to answer. L...

Hey, I hear ya there!! You and I sound a lot alike actually. I was TERRIFIED of the math portion. I dread anything involving math, and I just knew that I wasn't going to do well on it. But guess what...math ended up being my highest freaking score! I...

Thank you!! Yes, this was my first time taking it. I studied for about 3 weeks using the ATI manual and random online practice assessments (I didn't bother with the ATI online exams, but I hear they're great!). The science is, without fail, the harde...

Hey everybody! So I'm taking the Teas V exam on January 22nd. I have a lot riding on my results, because the program I am applying for uses a point system and the TEAS exam counts for almost half of your accumulated points. I am a very anxious test t...

Update: math ended up being my highest score. LOL! Life is so weird sometimes. Good luck to anyone taking the TEAS! You've got this-just breathe.

Well hey, I appreciate the bluntness! The logical, rational part of my brain fully realizes that and tells me to stop, then you have the other part that's like, "what's multiplication?" it's frustrating, because I've never done poorly or below averag...
