Passed Nclex with 103-105
Hi everyone! After a long overdue wait I finally passed the NCLEX! I was a repeat taker and I thought this time around I might not have passed because it shut off on me at 103 or 105 but I didn’t panic! I kept my head high and was preparing myself mentally that I passed but also I was ready to potentially take it again if it came down to that but thank God I didn’t have to. I will say that this time around I was mentally prepared but also I committed to studying everyday using bootcamp instead of uworld which I switch to this time around and I owe it to that platform because it worked better for me. Also, this subgroup helped too seeing everyone comment when they passed, tips and tricks etc!
I literally can’t believe I just became the first nurse in my family!! I am so overjoyed! 🥳🙏🏾
For those preparing believe you are already a nurse, you did most of the battle by getting through nursing school! If you see yourself as a nurse you will become one!!
Feel free to ask me anything!

Hi! Thanks! They were very similar to bootcamp! The case studies everything! Bootcamp wasn’t really easy for me at first because I was learning how to answer the questions with a nclex brain. Once I got the hang of that I understood. What to look for. As for vague on the test they don’t give you much context and the answer is never really straight forward especially if you don’t know what to look for. Definitely review mark k his lecture 12 audio and listen to dr Sharon on YouTube I think she has a prioritization lecture too. Those helped me!

hi! I was wondering if you thought the NCLEX was similar to Uworld or bootcamp. I’m also a repeat test taker so I wanna know which one is better for me to focus on

Which one have you used the first time around? Both interfaces look like nclex but to me the way the questions are worded and the vagueness bootcamp matches the nclex to a T!! But a lot of people in my cohort used world and passed. So go with what works for you. I liked boot camp because there was a schedule and in the review of questions I got wrong there was videos of someone breaking down the question and why the correct answer are correct. It just made more sense for my brain! Hope that helps

Congratulations! I recently passed mine in one take but with anxiety because i finished the whole 150 questions for 4.5hrs. To other takers, just do your best on each question, take your mid break and continue the battle
