I haven't even taken the NCLEX and I feel defeated! I graduated 6 months ago and the day is finally here. I pushed this day long enough and decided it was time. I first needed to work on my mental health before I could even tackle this. I put my mental health to the side while in nursing school and have struggled because of that. It wasn't a smart choice.
I started of with Saunders and almost had a mental breakdown. It was too much information for me. It was overwhelming and the questions were too easy.
I decided to tackle Kaplan! I took the in- person class and I enjoyed it! I do wish there was more content.
Scores:
diagnostic- 63%
Practice test- 67%
QT1- 61%
QT2- 52% (I was rushed)
QT3- I skipped:/
QT4- 79%
QT5- Skipped:/
QT6- 70%
QT7- 77%
Readiness- 80%
Didn't complete the question bank. I had an average of 60%.
I also used RN Mentor by ATI and have an average of 60% on the questions. I've also used some practice tests on the ATI site.
My last semester of my nursing program I got a 90% chance of passing the NCLEX on ATI.
I'm panicking. I feel like I didn't do enough:/

You've studied for 6 months?! I think you'll be alright as long as you really focus on the best answer. Also, when the screen prompts you to take a break, make sure you take it.
I didn't spend 6 whole months studying! I studied for about 2 months.
I spent 4 months getting the help I needed.
I wish it was six months of studying.
