I have been staring at the same flat line in NursingPrep Central for weeks. Checked today after a mixed HESI set and my anatomy trend finally moved up six points. Six tiny beautiful points. Nobody in my house understands why I took a screenshot, so I am telling you all.

  We understand the screenshot. SIX POINTS 🎉

  A flat line moving after weeks feels better than one random high score.

I missed my program's TEAS cutoff by 3 points on my first attempt and felt awful for a solid week. For the retake I stopped rereading everything and used the NursingPrep practice results to work on the sections I was actually missing. I got a 90 today. I start nursing school next month. I cannot stop smiling.

  I failed my first attempt too. Really needed to see this today.

Not for the score. Do it so you know what sitting there that long feels like. I used a full NursingPrep practice test with my phone in another room and took only the scheduled break. The real win was learning that my focus drops hard near the end of math, so I practiced resetting before the next section.

  Did you do this the day before?

  Phone in another room is the advanced difficulty setting.

I passed my TEAS, submitted everything, and got the nursing program acceptance email this afternoon. I'm the first in my family to go into nursing and I have reread the email at least 20 times. All those 6 am practice sets on NursingPrep Central were worth it. I'm going to nursing school 😭

  Screenshotting this for motivation. You did it 🎉

My friend and I share a NursingPrep mixed set twice a week, then talk through the questions we answered differently. We are not even getting the same things wrong, which is kind of the best part. My science score is up and she's finally less scared of math.
- NursePath_Maya27 3 weeks ago
  
  Do you do the set together or separately first?
- NightShiftPrep58 3 weeks ago
  
  I need a friend who considers rationale review a social activity.
- FirstGenClinical19 3 weeks ago
  
  This sounds so much less lonely than reviewing everything by myself.

The NursingPrep reading lesson suggested checking what the question is asking before going through a long passage. I thought that would distract me, but I stopped rereading the whole thing three times. Finished my last timed set with 11 minutes left instead of rushing the final questions.
- PocketCards_65 1 week ago
  
  Do you read all the questions first or one at a time?

  Trying this tonight because my timing is a disaster.

Nobody in my family has applied to nursing school, so every form, deadline, and TEAS score feels like something I have to figure out alone. I did a practice test on nursingprep central tonight and finally crossed my program's target score. It is only practice, but I cried anyway. The pressure is real and so is the progress.
- RNRetry_Momentum36 2 weeks ago
  
  Practice or not, crossing that target matters. Let yourself be proud tonight.
- FirstGenClinical19 2 weeks ago
  
  First gen here too. Even figuring out what questions to ask has been exhausting.

I kept waiting for a perfect two-hour block that does not exist in my house. Now I do one NursingPrep lesson during lunch and 20 questions after the kids are asleep. Some nights I only manage the lesson. My TEAS science score has gone from 61 to 78, slowly but for real.
- NightShiftPrep58 1 month ago
  
  Slowly but for real is the whole thing. A fake perfect schedule had me doing nothing.
- ScrubsAndScores_51 1 month ago
  
  61 to 78 while juggling kids is a serious win.
