Hi guys,

Well, I decided to forgo the Kaplan online review course and just take my test today. Now I wish I would've reconsidered. I went in so confident, but by the time 150 came around I was starting to doubt myself. I ended up taking 265 questions. The first time I took Nclex, I took 75 questions and failed. I don't feel too optimisitic about it all. I felt like towards the end, I was just answering the questions to get the test over and done with. I left so unsure and down. I find out my unofficial results on Friday so I will let you all know how I did. And thanks to all of you who lent an ear and offered encouraging words. It helped a lot!

wishing for the best!

Good luck. As you know the number of questions doesn't mean a thing. I'm sure it's nerve wracking experience.

Sometimes I think the old way of everyone having the same number of questions was the best way. That way people don't get stressed out over numbers. They just get stressed out over the questions. :)

I am in an orientation program with a bunch of new RNs. One of the women in the group had 265 questions and she found out she passed.

Best of luck!!
