Predictor scores are not reliable, they are known for going the opposite of what occurs. Instead rely upon your judgement as to how prepared you are. Good luck.

Yes, I was running about 70-75% in Saunders and I passed in 75. Sounds like you're in good shape!

i studied KAPLAN, SAUNDERS, EXAM KRAM, LIPPINCOT MADE INCREDIBLY EASY, and i find the best source is KAPLAN, though the exam format is like nclex 4000 type, but kaplan strats are way helpful, but most of all going back to MS books is helpful.. I passed at 75. critical and analytical thinking is the key.

60-70% for nclex 4000 and 70-80% for saunders, dont want to cause you anxiety but I would be more helpful if you can reschedule your exam date, if your making that score in KAPLAN test thats a goood predictor, anyhow, Goodluck! we never what knows comes out! what state you are applying anyway?

Very OLD RN here. I took 5- 250 question tests, over a 2 day period; got 5 separate grades and waited 2 months for the results. Oh yes and passed with National excellent grades. Didn't cram a bit.

I've often wondered how that would compare to a computerized 75?
