VATI, NCLEX Mastery, UWorld, LaCharity...confused and discouraged.

[dbear3]

So I graduated in early May and have been studying for the NCLEX since then. I bought the Virtual ATI and just took my predictor. It gave me a score of 82%. My subscription ends in 6 days and because of the time left, I do not qualify for the other two predictors offered by ATI unless I pay another $75. Even so, I have not felt 100% confident with ATI. I ended up buying the NCLEX Mastery App and UWorld. In addition, I took the NCLEX Mastery predictor exams and scored both a 90% and an 80%. I am considering just going through with UWorld and NCLEX Mastery. I also bought LaCharity's Delegation, Prioritizations and Assignment. Any thoughts of what I can do? UWorld has two predictors but I think I will hold off on those until I finish UWorld. Any other tips or thoughts on this?? It just gets discouraging because I have spent so many hours studying and remediating and this is as far as I have gotten. Thank you for your time.

When are you scheduled to take the NCLEX? I think you will spread yourself too thin studying all those reasources. I would just stick with 1. I would just use UWorld until the NCLEX. I personally used only Kaplan (and a tiny bit ATI) but used one of Uworld's trials for NCLEX and it seemed like a good reasource. Read the rationales to both right and wrong answers. Practice strategic test taking. Take the NCLEX ASAP! The longer you wait to take it the more you will forget!
