I believe you can do it. Follow your heart but the more you keep changing more anxiety. P:plsebeg: don't!! keep me updated on how far with the test. I score in the ranges of 67- 72%:typing which to me not that bad.:rolleyes:

kay dont you think below 60 is very :cry: low everytime i do kaplan n think i m the only one who getting such a bad marks

bodz01 · Jul 26, 2009

you guys aren't the only ones. i'm getting depressed with the scores myself. i just couldn't make the 65% mark. unless i repeat the trainers then eventually i end up getting a 90% above.lol

Maman2zoe,, i've also used exam cram and have been getting better scores on that one. but if i were in your shoes and can reschedule on the 6th, i would grab it. the free ones i have in my area doesn't come earlier than 08/15 and that's wayyy behind for me but i wish i could re-schedule too ='(

oh and yeah. i got a 60% on both trainers 5 and 6 too. i still haven't done trainer 7 but i bet i'll be even more depressed because that's a 265 items. more brain damaging.lol

I believe you can do it. Follow your heart but the more you keep changing more anxiety. P:plsebeg: don't!! If you can try these website maybe it will relieve you of your anxiety. These is how the test will look like!! www.nurse.nonoy.net:sofahider keep me updated on how far with the test. I score in the ranges of 67- 72%:typing which to me not that bad.:rolleyes:

I had 60% right out of the first 20 questions. I dion't think I am ready for Friday

To all of you, if you get 60% or more you will pass. I get 40-50s in the first three. I am studying before taking them again and go until 7

For question trainers 6 and 7, the goal is at least 60%. So... you are actually within range of passing even according to Kaplan. Take your readiness when you can and see where you are. Here are my question trainer scores:

1) 52%

2) 64%

3) 55%

4) 61%

5) 56%

6) 64%

7) 61%

Do you see how low they tend to be? My readiness test was 71%. You wouldn't have guessed that looking at my q bank or question trainers. (And your q bank scores were higher than mine!) Review your question trainers before taking the readiness. I don't believe it's too late for you at all!!

Don't reschedule!!! Honestly, who's prepared for the big day? Just go for it and let me tell you why.

- the longer you wait, the more stuff you gonna forget

- the longer you wait, you'll be more anxious

- the longer you wait, you'll have more stress seeing your classmates passing and start thinking "What ifs"

Kaplan is good because the its format is exactly the same with NCLEX. I did very well on Kaplan. Question trainer 6 - 69%, trainer 7 - 75%. Did it really help me on NCLEX? Not quite. I wasn't able to use its strategies at all during the exam. I would suggest you to review INFECTION CONTROL and FUNDAMENTALS SKILLS before you big day. Although you scored below 60s, always remember that you have 85% passing on the first try. Don't study at all tomorrow and spend time with your family I suggest. Good luck and come back and post after you passed!

I had 62% on QTrainer 6 and 50% on QTrainder 7 and passed NCLEX with 75 questions on the first try.

In fact, there were some questions on my NCLEX that were very similiar to the ones I had done in Kaplan's Qbank.

I wouldnt reschedule. The longer you wait, the more anxious you will be.

Congratulations! I had scores of 59% & 61% on Questions trainers 6 & 7 but failed.. :cry:

Your scores look pretty good, good enough to walk in with the confidence for exam. My scores were qt6 =67, qt7=60. I passed with 75 questions. Good luck!

Good Luck on your test! I felt the same thing before taking my NCLEX-PN, I actually almost re-schedule it several times, but regardless of what we do, we will never feel ready for it... at least that's what I felt... Just follow your heart and trust yourself... You should be fine...
