And recently i started doing KAPLAN questions online n my scores have been pretty low for instance, 65, 58, 52, 53, 55,... Any help on what i should do??? reschedule my test...

I passed NCLEX in 75 questions and took Kaplan. I had a couple tests in the high 50's, most were in the 60's somewhere and scored one 70. I think the most important thing to do with the Kaplan tests is make sure you are reading the rationale for the right AND wrong answers. If you are doing that, you are learning more than you realize to pass NCLEX. I feel this is more important than your scores because even the answers you get right, you may not have gotten them right for the reason NCLEX wants. Focus more on the rationale and doing as many questions as possible before your test date and you will do great!!

Good Luck!!

i have also done kaplan trainers scoring bet 60-65%. i felt really frustrated after each practice test and just thought that I have not studied good enough. I'd like to go back to my books and review every sysytems again from cover to cover, but i don't have enough time.

i think i'll read the strategies again and focus on rationales. studying for NCLEX is really hardwork. it seems like your usual routine change for a while and you don't want to plan anything until after your test result is back. Anyway, I believe PRAYERS can move mountains...

Good luck to all of us!

You are soooo right prayers can move mountains. And the more you study the rationales,the more it starts to make sense. Studying for the nclex is hard, its just like being in school again as far as the time factor is concerned. Anyway i hope you kick ass and take names on the test, i will be rooting and praying for ya!!!:up:
