Target Score?

Published

Hello. In answerinf questions, how will you know that you're ready to take the NCLEX-RN exam? What's the target score? I failed three times already, read saunders, Kaplan, took a review course and mosby. Right now, I'm focusing on answering questions, and targeting a score and see the improvement. What's your feedback?

Thanks in advance. God bless :nurse:

I'm sorry to hear that you failed but it's good to know that your considering preparing for the test again. :up: I've failed twice already and i'm on my third attempt next month. My target percentage score would be to at least get within the 70-80's and if I feel that I answered some questions right but didn't get the rationale right I go back to my pathophysiology and read that chapter again that way I remember why I got it right. I guess the only way i'll ever feel ready is when I'm calm and confident that I've done all I can in order to prepare. Mastering content and doing as many questions as you can before the exam that is. Keep trying, well get there eventually. Goodluck. :nurse:

thank you so much. Good luck too. Are you studying full time? Or working also? Because I am working full time as a nursing assistant at night. Sometimes I find hard time to study because when I got home, I'm tired.

No problem chica. :) It's really hard working and then coming home and having to study since your tired..I quit my last job just to dedicate myself fulltime to studying but I got offered a position that I can't refuse at the hospital, so I got into working again after being off. Right now I'm studying and working too and beleive me when I say I know how you feel cause when I get home I'm so tired that I just fall asleep with the Saunder's book just laying there next to my head..lol. It's HARD, sometimes I feel guilty and I have nightmares when I don't study and that's what wakes me up in order to read..lol..Before I take my test I'm hoping that i'll be able to request for some time off or just 2 days a week if I can so that I can just focus 100%. You should do the same if you can! It takes sacrifice if we wana get through this..
