I'm an international graduate. I graduated 2 years ago and I just found out this morning that I passed. If you have struggled like me, try UWORLD! :)

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!!!

I'm using uworld right now. Scoring around 65% for a cumulative avg. It says I'm 90 th percentile. Hoping that's positive cause I write in three days!

UWorld! I passed first try with 75 questions in 40 minutes. I did the entire QBank once and then reviewed the ones I missed. Their rationales are good and some of their charts are excellent. I never really bothered with what percent I got right, just focussed on the rationales.

Hey, congrats on passing the NCLEX. Did you only use UWorld as your only resource for the exam?

I had a few review books I'd picked up at a used bookstore, and I initially started by doing some of their questions. But once I started UWorld I stopped using the books. The UWorld screen setup is very similar to NCLEX and there are lots of SATA questions, and with 1600 questions there is plenty to keep you busy.

ATI is crap.

I agree! My college made everyone purchase at I along with all its extensions. Over $900 worth!! While studying for the nclex my coach wouldn't let me access certain parts of it because I didn't follow her study plan. Didn't get the green light. 😬😬😬😬

Took the nclex Friday and passed in 75 no thanks to at I lol

And lots of repeat questions!!!!

Can you tell I hate ati?? í ½í¸‚

Oh, wow, what a ripoff! What would have happened if you'd refused to buy the ATI? My college offered it free and I never used it. I just never got around to it and then when I found out from another student that there was an actual coach who was supposed to approve things and guide me I just said no way, I don't need or want that kind of help. Congrats on your pass!

It was part of our tuition and they bought it for us:dead:

Congratulations! I also passed on my 5th attempt! :)

I took NCLEX- PN yesterday, found out this morning I passed. I used saunders, NCLEX mastery app, and UWORLD. I did prefer the UWORLD rationales. UWORLD was definitely the most difficult qbank, I had a 56% average. I got 85 questions and 35+ SATA. I guess my success was from doing 150-200 questions a day regardless of the source. I also took the day before to relax to not feel burn out during the real test.

I take my exam in 2 weeks and considering Uworld. Would you recommend Uworld over the other study material?

Specializes in ICU.

I test on Friday and have been doing Saunders, Kaplan, and UWorld. I'm hitting right around 54% on UWorld right now, but am not half way through. I've been hitting 70% with Saunders and a little lower than 70% on Kaplan. I've also been doing Lipponcott PassPoint and have been getting a 7 out of 8 mastery level. I'm so nervous right now as I just want to get this test over with!!
