I had access to VATI, Kaplan and UWORLD. I did ATI throughout my last semester of school and passed the exit exam (got my green light) so i wasn't required to do VATI but it was still available to me. I decided not to use VATI, instead I focused on UWorld and on Kaplan, however after about 4 days on Kaplan it became too much for me and I decided just to stick with UWorld, I did about 150q a day under the untamed tutor option. I read most of the rationals (always for questions I would get wrong) and did both of the simulation tests available to us. I landed in the 78th percentile both times and it made me feel better going into the actual NCLEX. I made sure to get through ALL the questions before taking the NCLEX, the day before I did not study- apparently we aren't supposed to. The day of the exam I was supper anxious, the exam shut off at number 90 and my last question was supper easy so I assumed I failed because they say if the last question is easy its not a good sign. However- the next day I found out I passed. I am now a RN! I would tell everyone to stick with UWorld, I was so used to NCLEX style questions that it helped my anxiety and I felt more confident while I answered the questions.

Good job! I love to see good news. haha i think people have a lot of different opinions about this test such as if your last question is easy you failed which is not necessary true. Im super nervous. I have only been studying for 3 weeks and have done about 800 world questions. Would you say its similar to world. Did you come across any similar questions?
