So I graduated in May 2026 and I’ve been super stressed with how studying has been. I’m really happy right now! My school used ATI so that’s what I had during the program. I didn't really like ATI though because I felt like the format was rlly outdated. After I graduated I took like a month vacation before I started studying. Then I studied for about 3 months over the summer.

I mostly studied with NurseHub and did a ton of practice questions and practice exams. Seeing my scores helped me figure out what I actually needed to work on. I’m a really anxious test taker so just doing exam after exam helped me get used to the feeling of it. Honestly I feel like the most important thing for taking the NCLEX is how mental you are. By the time test day came the questions didn’t feel as scary because I’d already seen so many like them. I kind of felt overprepared going in which I never thought I’d say lol.

What I did was I studied every day for at least an hour or two. I made sure I didn’t study more than 4 hours and that I had a good break in between. I would take a readiness exam and then focus on the topics I got wrong and the ones I was weak in. I really focused on those.

The NCLEX adapts to you so if you’re weak in something it’s going to show. You really have to know everything and really work on your weak spots. It knows...

Also if you can I definitely think it’s worth buying the quick results so you can see if you passed in 48 hours. Waiting for it to be released on the official site would’ve been so much worse. And honestly those 48 hours were the most anxiety inducing ever lol! Good luck to everyone studying right now!

Kaya pa ba i-clutch review? any tips and high-yield topics commonly seen in nclex? 🥺 tyyyy

Hi all, i received an email from my state BON that i passed but i don’t see it on the NCLEX website and it’s not on my state official license lookup. Is it normal or i am being pranked? I am worried

Hello! I had my exam last Oct 12 and unfortunately I failed. How do I understand this? Should I just focus on those with the 'below passing standard' for my next exam? Or I'll prompt this on ChatGPT? Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you in advance!

hi everyone! has anyone encountered this problem, i tried the person vue trick about 2 hours after my exam (10/24) which was a saturday and i got the hold message and i got my money refunded within like 2 days (monday). i was checking my bon website and ncbsn website with it saying results are still not available at this time.. i was calling pearson and ncbsn numerous times to get an answer about the hold and they gave me the generic response.. and then boom i was able to see later in the day i was able to purchase quick results and then it said fail… but since the bon closes at 5pm it hasn’t populated yet nor have i gotten my cpr report. i was wondering if anyone has came across this issue before? i don’t understand if it could have been testing irregularities and/or anything i could have or may have not done personally because i know they say it could be the candidates fault or not… but if i failed why not just tell me that ? it’s the suspense of just being on hold and then boom fail. please no negativity! thank you ✨

I got 5 NGN case studies ( those with 6 questions each). I remember I didn’t have bowties but I had multiple SATAs. I made sure I under guessed because i’m afraid of over guessing. After the exam, I just felt confused because I was ready to take it till 150 but the computer shut off at 85. I just really don’t know what i’m feeling right now

I am graduating in December and have heard a lotttt about the different q banks. I’m debating between Archer and UWorld.

For those who recently took the NCLEX, which Q bank did you use and why?

For context, I’m in an accelerated nursing program and feel like I basically crammed for a year and a half to just pass my classes. I struggle mostly with pharm, bow tie questions, and applying content.

Which do you feel like prepared you most?

Edit: how long did you study for?

can you guys help me determine if I was far away from passing I really don’t know this works 🫩

Hi, I’m a repeat taker and I can’t wrap my head around the Nclex. I’m confused on how is it safety exam if we still need to know your content?

Has anyone gotten the good pop-up and still failed? This is my second attempt. I failed 150 questions the first time, and it today itstopped at 85. I tried the Pearson trick and got the good pop-up, but I know better than to get my hopes up.

Hi guys ! I unfortunately did not pass my nclex I took it for the first time last week. Would you guys recommend using another source to study like archer or world ? I really liked bootcamp crash courses unfortunately, I didnt end up using all of them. Please let me know TYIA 💗

Hello,

Looking for an NCLEX tutor. Does anyone have any experiences with working with Suzanna from thenextgentutor? If so what were her rates and how did she structure her tutoring sessions.

Hello Everyone, I just wanted to ask if anyone here needs to complete a review course from school or state before attempting 3rd try on nclex? Thanks!

Here are my recent scores on the CATs and Self-Assessments. With my exam scheduled for November 5th, do you think I'm ready to go into it with peace of mind?

Please help me po huhu, 4 days before my exam, and my first RAT exam in Nurxep is low (I only used their free trial). It was super vague huhu does it mean I will most likely fail my exam? On Bootcamp, I scored 3VH and 1H and got a 76%. Should I push back my exam date or does anyone has Low score in RAT too but still pass? Please I need some advice🥹

i graduated last year & rushed my exam, didn’t pass. i’m studying for the nclex for my 2nd attempt - but this is my 2nd/3rd time studying for it. i had a concussion, my mother passed (god bless her soul) & its just been a lot. i keep rebooking my exam. i keep trying to study but idk how to explain it the days bleed into each other & im clocked out and just don’t want to study. i want to get my exam done this week. but i have to review adult health, child health, pharm, mental health etc.

these are my stats.

uworld readiness assessment:
#1 is very high
#2 very high
#3 borderline (took right after 2)

i am so scared to fail cus everything’s on my shoulders but i really can’t afford to push it back anymore or renew

can anyone give me guidance

I don’t know what to say I mean I think i was crazy for scheduling the test so early 2 weeks after finishing school. I told myself that I need time for my newborn and maybe get the nclex over will solve everything 🥲( pls don’t judge me). So school ended on 7th October, got ATT on 15th, and scheduled on 27th. Now on 26th, I’m officially terrified. I did 50% uworld, did 4 assessments with 2high 2very high, watched simple nursing, mark 12lectures, did 1 cat boot camp at borderline 63% with all 150q, watched crusade 7days in 1 day lol. To be honest my brain gets so foggy and sleep deprived hit me hard, feel like my brain refuses to look at any more question. I don’t know should I keep doing more uworld or listen to more simple nursing.
Am I crazy cuz I don’t feel prepared at all.
Update after the exam: mine shut at 115-116idk cuz I stopped looking at question number at 110 lol with 4case studies a lot of bow ties 😭😭 like why. Check my Pearson says “you do not have any exams that can be scheduled at this time”. Might check back tmr to see 🥲.
