Uworld scores and nclex

Published

I'm reaching out because I'm taking the nclex-rn in a little over a week and my uworld scores have me a bit stressed. My quiz scores have a high varience ranging from 40-70%, but my current average performance is 52% (only half way through bank). I just took my first self assessment and received borderline passing. :(

I've also been listening to the Mark Klimek lectures, but thats it.

I know people say dont worry about the numbers, but it's hard to disregard. Does anyone have any advice to improve?

Greatly appreciated !!

I took my NCLEX for the first time last month and pass. My UWorld average was 50-60%. I actually went through all 1400 or so questions in 12 days. My regiment was wake up at 7:30AM study till 10PM for 12 days straight.

I took the first UWORLD self assessment and got a 59% (High Chance of Passing) around day 6. Then I took the second self assessment and got a 53% (Borderline Chance of Passing) on day 11. Day 12 I basically just skim on some stuffs and labs review up until noon. Then I went on a solo hike for 4 hours and try to sleep early lol Took 2 pills of melatonin but didn't really have any deep sleep but I kept my eyes closed for 8 hours.

Hopes this helps put it in perspective. Just remember, the NCLEX is a exam of safety and minimum competency, don't think way into the questions. Always think "what is the worse thing that could happen if I assess this patient instead of the other patient?".
