NCLEX!!!! Omg I just took it and it was horrendous!!!!!

I just took it. 75 Questions. I don't feel like there was one question where I was like, "I Know this!!!" I felt like I was at best giving slightly educated guesses. Every question was so hard and obscure. I was a good student in school, did ALL of the Kaplan review (which was over 2000 practice questions when it was said and done) which indicated I was more than ready.

I just feel like crying now and I wanted to cry while I was taking that test. There were questions with 4 right answers and drugs and diseases I have NEVER EVEN HEARD of ever!

The only thing that gives me hope is that since I got no what seemed to be easy questions, that I answered enough difficult ones correctly and that's why it shut off at 75.

Interestingly, I had not one singe math question, nor put in the correct order question.

Well hopefully I find out Monday or Tuesday...

Good Luck:)

I felt the same way - had 75 questions, meds I never heard of, felt like I failed. But I passed and I'm sure you will too! Good luck!

please let us know how you did. My fingers are crossed for you! :-)

I felt like I entered the corn field when I took my NCLEX, so, I understand how you feel. Somehow, most of us pass the first time around, so, my fingers are certainly crossed for you!

GL! i know that its tough! i know you feel like your in a different world, i know i did until i found out the results.. hell, i did for a while after!!!! lol!! ur supposed to feel that way i think! haha.. gl! you did good to get thru it! congrats in advance!

I too will be keeping my fingers crossed for you. Good luck!!

I will be taking my PN exit exam on the 23rd. And pretty soon I will I will be registering for the NCLEX-PN. I'm nervous, but so far I've remained focused and kept my study habits in check. Everything I have been learning lately is sticking with me, so hopefully I can apply all that I know and pass the NCLEX in order to move on.

Many more people passed at 75 than fail, if that's any consolation. I can't tell you not to feel so much anguish but, but maybe distract yourself for the next few days?

same here

I think everybody feels that way after they take the NCLEX. I left the testing place in tears because I thought I didn't know anything on the test. Try to do something fun that will take your mind off of it until you get the results! And good luck!!!

Did you try the Pearsonvue trick? Go on their site and try to register to take the exam again. If it doesn't let you then you passed! Hurry! Go try it!

I think you did fine! The best part of your day should be that you are so done with that nasty Nclex. I do want to know, did you have any repeat questions on your exam & if so did you choose the same answers? I am taking my exam on Monday and I'm getting mixed answers about repeat questions. Some people say if you keep seeing the same topic then that means that you're getting those questions wrong & then some people say that's not true. They say that Nclex is testing to see if you're consistent with your answers so keep picking the same answer. I'm just unsure about that and trying not to freak out but I'm sure you understand how hard it is not to!

I'll be watching out for your results.

The top student in our class, when she took it, she was devastated when she left. She said there was only a small handful of questions that she felt she knew the answers to and some, she had no clue.

She got 75 questions...and passed.
