Second attempt approaching

Published

I took the nclex in April and did not pass, even though I took it against my better judgment. I am now scheduled to take it again in October and am using Kaplan as well as Kaplan's content review guide. I am also using Saunders the yellow book with disc as well. I am also using the awesome study guide posted on this site. I feel a lot more prepared this time and confident I have a study guide and plan and have completed it as we'll as the Kaplan q banks. My scores are as follows this is based on the study guide suggested for Kaplans five week study schedule.

Trainer 4 -76.0%

Trainer 5 - 69.3%

Trainer 6 - 66.8%

Trainer 7 - 65.3%

* RN Sample Tests*

Sample Test 1- 72%

Sampler Test 2 - 56%

Sample Test 3 prioritizing - 90%

Sample Test 4 Alternate response SATA -76%

I really don't know what else to do, I am so ready to get this over with I'm starting to dream about taking the nclex again its gotten so bad. At least in my dreams I passed can't wait until it becomes a reality. Well you guys if you have any more suggestions or advice as well as prayers all is welcome. I thank you all for your constant inspiration and advice on this nclex journey I'll keep you guys posted.:nailbiting:

You are ready! When your sitting down, relax and take your time, hide the timer if you need to, those scores are a positive sign. I took it yesterday and actually knew some of the answers LOL You will have plenty of time, even if you have to answer more than 75 questions. I had a lot of prioritization questions, and about 15 SATA. I tried to register again, went completely through the credit card process, because I figured if I didn't pass I would have to pay for it again anyway. After entering in my CC info and clicking submit, I got a pop up that said I could not register due to already being in the system and taken it, or something like that, so I believe that is a good sign as well. Think positive and have faith in yourself! And Good Luck!

Thanks a ton and congrats to you too. I can't wait to be next to pass and for once like I said I feel ready:yes:

When did you take the exam? And did you not get the pop up until you submitted your credit card info?

Your scores are very good. Keep up with the questions, maybe 50-100 per day to keep your brain fresh. You should dominate this test, just relax when you start the test.

Mayrao23, I took it yesterday and last night got the good pop up. Yes, you must now enter all the information INCLUDING YOUR CC INFO and then clicking submit before you will receive the good pop up, if you passed. Pearsons system update in August changed the way of accessing the pop up.
