Virtual ATI costs $249 for already existing users where the program was used by the school. We have several volumes of content area that corresponds to each nursing specialty. Fundamentals, Pharmacology, care of children, Leadership, Psychiatric nursing, etc. There are many other packages you can use in ATI. After every subject at our school, an ATI test was given and we needed to reach a benchmark grade that would predict our success on the NCLEX. I'm doing it because it gives me a focused plan and a mentor. I'm also using the Saunders NCLEX book to get in more questions.
Best of luck!
I started using Virtual ATI, but was unclear as to what I needed to study and how to go about it. I graduated in May and took the NCLEX in June about 1 month after graduation. My virtual ATI advisor told me that according to the ATI Comprehensive Predictor test, I needed a few more weeks to study and I didn't listen and took it anyway.
Needless to say I didn't pass. So now I'm hoping to get a more focused study plan with ATI. You can create a study guide from your comprehensive predictor test which will guide your study. I didn't know about this study guide until 4 days before I took the test. I received the information much too late. I'm now thinking about doing a 4 day review at a local university and continuing with my study plan with the virtual ATI.
Keep doing your Saunders questions, 100 a day and review your week areas.
Hope that helped a little.
