I am averaging 46% and seem to be in a rut I take the NCLEX in 2 weeks. I am nervous my average isn't high enough to pass. Any input is extremely appreciated!
I was averaging 52% at first and found out today that I passed in 91 questions.But by the week before my test, I was scoring up to 64%. So my grade got better towards the end. As long as you're improving.
Your post is very encouraging!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much! My score goes up a little each day so hopefully in 10 days it will be much better, Thanks again!
Thank you so much lizwu0827!!! It has already gone up this morning 3 points. I have done a ton of questions!
when I first tookUworld questions, it is like one month left for my exam and I only got 38% right. Gosh you dont know how desperate I was that time. However I kept on studying and my score went up with 45% 50% 55%, two weeks before I got 64% first time I still remember I cried. And then my score consistently around 55% to 65% one week before exam. I reviewed all the 250 flagged questions one day before my date. it helps a lot. Dont frustrate, just keep going you still have time!
My average was 60% on Uworld and I passed in 75. But the questions on NCLEX were not even in the same ballpark as Uworld. It's very hard to explain. I guess they as well as the other study material focus too much on content.
Hi what do you mean" not in the same ballpark" like in a bad or good way lol?
I just found out I passed NCLEX this morning and tested yesterday. UWORLD and NCLEX look identical so that is comforting while testing.. honestly on my test (i know everyone gets a dift one) I had AT LEAST 40 SATA....UWORLD was critical when it came to answering them because I had so much practice with UWORLD. I read every single rational even if I got it correct, my average was 64% and I did about a thousand questions. I also did the Lacharity book and found that VERY helpful....Honestly like UWORLD saved my ass during the nclex and the questions (remember this is the test I took) were VERY similar to UWORLD, like at times I kind of forgot I was taking the nclex. My test shut off at 75 questions and I was out the door. I would just keep practicing the UWORLD and do tests in sets of 20 questions. I would do around 60-80 qs every single day. Your score will go up the more practice you get and you will improve you just have to stick with it and trust UWORLD. :) I hope this helps, you can do it I promise!

Thanks for the encouragement! The dreaded SATA I am getting better at them with UWORLD. I just need to stop second guessing myself! I test in 10 days.........prayers are appreciated as well as words of encouragement :) Thanks again Joanie49
Absolutely agree with erickz623 don't focus on your average. What's important is that you understand the information. NCLEX is incredibly weird and although uworld is content based there were a lot of questions I got right because of uworld. And on NCLEX hard questions came in all forms. Some of my hardest ones were multiple choice and were the most random questions ever. I only had like 10 SATA and passed in 75. You can absolutely do it!
Thanks RAndaRoo, BSN! I definitely get a lot of SATA with UWORLD. I've noticed in my last few blocks that I am looking at the SATA different and I am starting to get a lot more right! It is so hard not to look at the percentage, but I get what you are saying because I am learning/remembering from reading the rationales. Thanks again :)

prioritize, delegation and assignment. This book is helpful for building critical thinking, like a stepping stone. I also did almost 1000 question on mastery nclex App for my weakness areas, a good app with high quality and updated questions. Overall, Uworld is the best and works best to practice two weeks or one month before exam.
