I found a Kaplan Question Trainer downloaded on one of the computers at work and I have been using this to study. I wanted some advice on my scores. Since I didn't sign up with Kaplan and not sure how QT works how should I interpret my scores? I've taken four out of the seven exams my scores are:Test#1 60%Test#2 60%Test#3 59%Test#4 60%Thanks in advance.

I know I have problems with the comprehensive typed questions but my critical thinking skills are on point. I'm doing a bunch of questions, I really want to pass the first time.

I basically nagged her to do a couple qbanks and trainer. She got like 58 percent at best. She passed with 120 questions.

I have the Kaplan book, doing questions from there. I have a Saunders CD for content. I suck at content based questions. According to Kaplan, critical thinking skills are needed to pass Nclex-RN. Prayers needed.
