so i know its impossible for anyone to tell me if im ready for the nclex or not and no one ever feels like they're ready but i guess i just need some reassurance. i test this friday and ive only used kaplan to study and google for information i didn't understand. my scores are
diagnostic: 53
readiness: 52
qt 1: 51
qt 2: 47
qt 3: 52
qt 4: 48
qt 5: 65
qt 6: 67
qt 7: 61
sample test 1:56
sample test 2: 63
sample test 3: priority 83
sample test 4: SATA 32
qbank 100% complete w 60% overall (i had a few low 50s but for the most high 50's-low 60s. for all content my lowest was health promotion and maintenance around high 40s but i expected that and reviewed-everything else around or close to the 60 mark)
I was doing horribly in the beginning because I really didn't know content. I stopped after qt 4 and to review I devoted two days for each topic (health promotion, pharm, etc) listening to all of the kaplan content review videos for that topic, taking notes as i watched, and then taking questions. i read rationales for every question
i feel the most confident about priority and delegation questions as well as priority (which patient to see first) but i am freaking out over SATA and ordered response. I found a site to do practice alternate questions and so far i have gotten them all wrong. i feel like I know content (as much as i can anyway) and i treat each choice as t/f but i still somehow always miss one or check a wrong answer
i want to stick with my original test date because although my original scores were horrible, my latest scores after reviewing are where they need to be. i feel confident only because of how my scores improved, but im not sure if i should push it back a few days to devote time to just doing SATA/order response??
sorry this is so long if you've read it all!!
