Uworld? NCLEX

Published

Hello everyone. I am a new graduate nurse preparing for taking nclex on June 10th. I have been using uworld since last week (150-200 questions/day). Did anyone else use uworld and how long did you use it before taking nclex? Any other recommendations on how to study?

Hey there! I'm using Uworld as well. My test isn't for a few more weeks. I'm also using Hurst, NCLEX mastery app, and lachairty book.

I used uworld and Hurst, but preferred uworld due to it's similarity to NCLEX in format, which I feel decreased my anxiety on test day. I would do AT LEAST 100/day. Sometimes I did up to 250ish to prepare me in case I was in for the long haul on the real deal.

Thank you! How long did you practice with uworld before you took nclex?

I’m a new ADN grad too! I’m going to be taking the NCLEX on Saturday (5/18). I just finished the q-bank today for uworld and my average is 64.8 with an 86 percentile.

That's great scores!! So far, after a week, I'm in the 80th percentile. Hopefully that will increase with practice! Good luck!!!

Yes, by a long shot! Uworld was the only prep I used. Our school used ATI and it was nothing like NCLEX. My exam was about 50% SATA. I had 4-5 place in correct order sequence, one math question, no hot spots or exhibits, no audio and no diagrams, so basically nothing visual. But everyone’s exam is going to differ from one person to the next.
