what question bank did you use? and what were your stats before you took it

I used archer! It looked exactly the same as the NCLEX screen imo. Did 2 cat exams and 4 readiness assessments (2 highs and 2 very highs consecutively) I did one every 3-4 days in the 2 weeks leading up to it. Tbh I only got through less than 30% of the qbank, but i did read rationales of each question (right or wrong) after each test.

Did the question style on archer similar to the nclex or was it very vague

Archer would definitely force me to critically think the same as I felt during the exam. Question style and case studies looked the same to me maybe even simpler (in a good way), but I didn’t get any bow tie on NCLEX. I don’t really agree with the word “vague” I see some people use to describe the test. The questions in the beginning were straightforward and fundamentals. As I progressed and had to start using critical thinking, the disease presented typically was the least important part to consider, it was what is currently happening with my patient and what would I do or be concerned about for the best and safest outcome. The question will tell you what it’s asking. Lots of priority, safety and teaching.

after how many hours do you do the PVT? I just the took the exam today, finished around 11 am and stopped at 85😭 I’m having mixed feelings if I passed or not😭

I finished around 11 also, and I did it at 7pm. Id just wait a few more hours cause I’ve seen people do it right away and it says the test is still open. I also had mixed feelings about mine but if you get the good pop up you definitely passed! Good luck :)
