What review course are you currently using?

What I've learned overtime and I still make the same mistake but more less. When I was told to pick your gut answer that first answer that pops up go for it. Don't change it unless you are 100 percent sure and more commonly don't pick answers you don't recognize. I've noticed it kind of helps but your able to knock them down to two is a good sign! I messaged u back by the way.

You should be good if you are using hurst, did you listen to the audio or watch their video for the core content?

I pass and I used hurst and scoring 71% 74%

but you have to know the core of content plus their 5th day material ,

Be familiarize with meds and know the lab values I got tons of meds and lots of SATA

Best of luck to you and god bless

What's your score each test out of 125? If u r getting 70 and above u should be good as long as u study the core of content and understand the concept

I just passed the NCLEX on Thursday. The day before I used the Evolve/Elsevier HESI NCLEX prep online questions. I was getting 50-60% on them! I was sure I was going to fail. If I got a question wrong, I would just look up information about that particular illness/disorder. I spent hours studying and really was losing confidence.

I passed in 100 questions! The test seemed unreasonably hard about half way through, with some disorders and meds I had never even heard about. I seriously couldn't even break them down to the terminology and figure it out. I had to guess, and I still passed. Keep in mind the NCLEX is a test that is set up to get harder if you are doing well. If you are getting harder questions, it's a good sign! Don't worry, if you are getting 60-80 percent I bet you will do even better than me!
