UWorld Assessment

Published

I need a bit of advice, fellow nurses (and aspiring nurses). I've been using UWorld for almost three weeks now and have gone through about 1600 questions. My average on the Qbank is 56% putting me in the 68th percentile. My first assessment test taken two weeks ago was a 56% (37th percentile) and I took a second assessment test today with a 52% (33rd percentile). I waited to take the second until today because my NCLEX is tomorrow and I wanted to see how far I had progressed.

At this point, I'm confused. I was progressing really well with the Qbank questions, but I've scored lower on my second assessment test. I know everyone has harped on not focusing on the numbers, but I can't help but wonder if I'm truly ready if I've gotten borderline twice (even after weeks of studying and "improving"). Has anyone taken the asssessment tests with a borderline result and passed? If so, what were your numbers (Qbank, assessment, and then NCLEX).

I'm trying to stay positive, but the numbers are a little frustrating. Input?

Well, I didn't get any input or feedback, but I tested on the 3rd. This was my second go around (first was 265 questions) and I got 265 questions again. I walked out feeling defeated and couldn't figure out how, after months of studying, I was still "questionable." I got my quick results back this afternoon and found out I passed. In my head I don't feel like I deserved it, but if they gave it to me, I must!
