This has been the hardest thing for me to let go of since I started studying - I want the % to tell me I'm doing something right. However the NCLEX people, they just want you to get more right than wrong and you aren't given a grade.
As long as you are getting more right than wrong, you are understanding all the rationals (both right and wrong) you are doing great!!!
Good luck this week with your test - you'll do great!!!!!
I like 75% as a number of what you should be getting correct to have the best chance of passing.
To the other poster above: All that take the exam will get 50% correct and 50% incorrect, the issue is the level that you are getting them correct at. That is what NCLEX goes by. Even if I took the test tomorrow, it would be so that I got 50% correct........the level would just be that much higher for me.

What % correct is recommended to have a good undertsanding? I know with ATI, over 60% is considered good, since it is above average. What does Saunders recommend? I don't know if I am in good shape or not. Thanks!
