Taking my nclex in two days please help! Need advice!!!!

Your scores look pretty similar to other test takers. Only you will know if you are ready. If you feel enormously unprepared, then feel free to reschedule. Just don't let this become a habit. a little bit of anxiety is normal! Just remember- scores are just a number.

I know! I think what I need is just words of wisdom because I am having anxiety like really bad anxiety. Anyway, have you taken yours yet? And are you doing kaplan?

I took NCLEX two weeks ago and passed in 75 with using kaplan. (My program was kaplan integrated so I'm very used to answering their questions) My scores were...

Diagnostic 56.1%

Q Trainer 1 56%

Q Trainer 2 62.7%

Q Trainer 3 70%

Q Trainer 4 60.7%

Q Trainer 5 66.7%

Q Trainer 6 56.5%

Didn't take Trainer 7...

NCLEX-RN practice test 71.7%

Q Bank cumulative performance 55%

Readiness Test 71.7%

Priorities 83.3%

Alternate format 32%

It looks like, according to Kaplan, you have a 95.2% chance of passing as of right now so I personally wouldn't move back the test date.

Make sure you know infection control stuff, like mnemonics for airborne, contact, and droplet precautions. Also, I had three questions from kaplan that were almost word for word what I saw on NCLEX, good luck!

Sometimes, it's best to just take your test. Originally I gave myself a month to study but I started to see my friends take their tests couple weeks earlier because of job offers. I realized I was already burned out and couldn't push myself another couple weeks so I joined them and took the test 2 weeks earlier and passed in 75. You'll never feel ready but if you start to feel burned out, maybe it's time.

Yes! Im actually going over the 35 page reviewer foing around. Im not gonna move it, i hope i pass!!!

Congrats on passing! I actually started studying januey so i guess almost two months of reviewing? I know im so burned out that i dont know how else am i gonna prepare for the nclex. So anxious and stressed out. Will get back to you if i pass! How was yours though? So far in our class, we are the first batch. Only one person failed but theres only like 8 of us who havent taken it.

Mine had a fair share of everything but I'm never one of those people who remembers their test too well since I'm always in the moment. As far as I remember, I had a couple priority questions, several OB/PEDS and also quite a few psych questions. I didn't feel comfortable at all after the test because I don't feel like I answered any of them confidently. Only review I did is UWorld with the whole test bank completed, going over each rationale. Granted, you're not going to remember everything about each rationale you read but after a while those questions and the correct answers will start looking familiar to you.

According to your screen name you are already an RN, so what test are you talking about?
