I know they say to aim for at least 60-65 on all the tests, but i have never been able to get that high. I plan on taking my readiness exam tomorrow and hopefully that'll give me a better idea of where I'm at, but as of now I am freaking out! I really don't want to have to retake the NCLEX as I start my new job in 3 weeks.
How are those? My bf has to start studying for his NCLEX and he asked me what he should use and i couldn't in good conscience recommend Kaplan. I've heard good things about Uworld at least!
Yes uworld is amazing its a 2 for 1.......the rationales are so in depth that is your content review whit answering over 1900 questions from the QB definitely worth the $80..... Happynclex teaches you stragedy which also has helped me a lot.
Hmmm maybe ill tell my boyfriend to try that then. Thx for the recommendation and good luck one thing my grandmother always says is "you always know more than you think you do"
I took it yesterday at 8am, got the good pop up at around 10am and am posted with my RN license number on the VABON website 24 hrs later! I passed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
im so happy for you, i hope ill do the same.I still have three weeks to go and although i havent studied so much few mos ago, I'm giving my best now. huhuuhh
You will! Seriously, if i can, not knowing half the **** on that exam you definitely can! Just something that I think helped me a lot is DO NOT study the day before the exam, in fact so out and treat yourself. Then get plenty of rest and go in as calm as possible. I'll be waiting to hear the good news
