I am testing on July 9th of next week and I've been saving the 2 last question trainers for the final week before my exam. Well, I took QT6 today and I really thought I was failing miserably when taking it as all the kaplan questions make me feel like that, but I scored 75%. I think that's a really good indication of my readiness. Would you say these are pretty good predictors? 0 Likes

danielle.schamer Jul 4, 2014 Some were questionable that I got wrong but many I felt confident as mostly was about infection control stuff and what would you do. Not symptoms of some disease I can't remember. I felt nclex was easier in that sense so pared to kaplan. I think because kaplan is more detailed than nclex. Nclex just wants to make sure you aren't going to kill someone :) 0 Likes

rob4546, ADN, BSN Specializes in ICU. Has 7 years experience. Jul 4, 2014 I think that 75% is really good. I got in the lower 80's for question trainer 6 and upper 70's for question trainer 7 and I felt the NCLEX was not that bad. I am a recent test taker so it was with the new testing plan. I went in ultra confident and walked out smiling and I think you should as well. Confidence is really important. Congratulations on the awesome test score and all the work you did to get to this point. 0 Likes
