1. Failed NCLEX - Kaplan live course versus Kaplan Qbank?

   jlan79 replied to yudenisrodriguez's topic in NCLEX

   I kind of agree. I felt like the questions I was getting were so completely random, some obscure or uncommon conditions that I never even studied. I felt like I was making educated guesses on every single question. The only one I was sure of was the ...

2. Does anyone know if the pearson vue trick actually works?

3. Nurse/Patient ratio in the ED?

   jlan79 posted a topic in Emergency

   I'm looking to go into ED nursing and I was wondering what is the typical nurse to patient ratio on a relatively busy day. The program I interviewed for mentioned 7-8 patients and I thought it was a lot, especially in ED. Is that a lot? Or am I being...

4. 48 hours for results?

   jlan79 posted a topic in NCLEX

   When Pearsonvue says to wait 48 hours, does that mean exactly that? On the dot? And does it mean 48 hrs from the time you start or from the time you finish? If my test was at 2pm, the results should also be posted at 2pm? Ugh, I just want to know alr...

5. Did I fail the NCLEX?

   jlan79 replied to LucaBella's topic in NCLEX

   This is exactly how I felt and exactly what my test consisted of. I got the good pop-up and I was shocked because I totally thought I failed. Will find out for sure tomorrow.

6. NCLEX in two days!

   jlan79 replied to eylee08's topic in NCLEX

   I was in your shoes a few days ago and was feeling very nervous too (the day before was the worst!) That said, when I saw the first question it was as if I didn't study anything. I felt like most of my test was either on meds/conditions/procedures I ...

7. Did I just pass the NCLEX??

   jlan79 replied to jlan79's topic in NCLEX

   My school paid for Kaplan, so that's what I did. I went through all the questions and sample tests, I studied the Kaplan book as well. I feel like so much of my test was on stuff I never even saw before, or stuff I wasn't focusing on that I am not ev...

8. Did I just pass the NCLEX??

   jlan79 posted a topic in NCLEX

   So I took the test today and I honestly felt like it was the hardest test I've ever taken. I did Kaplan and did well on it and NCLEX seemed MUCH harder! I was asked about stuff I never even heard about! I had maybe 20 SATA, a dozen priority/delegatio...

9. NCLEX is over!

   jlan79 replied to ISeeYou3100's topic in NCLEX

   Congrats!!! How long did you wait to do the PVT?

10. Nclex less then in 5hours :-(

    jlan79 replied to Skaur2017's topic in NCLEX

    Good luck! Sounds like we're testing at the same time. I'm trying my best to stay calm, but I feel like so much is riding on this! I have a dream job opportunity that rests on me passing, so it's not like I can just re-take the test. I feel like I wo...

    jlan79 replied to mydestinyy's topic in NCLEX

    Wow, I wouldn't be able to wait like that, I'd need to know ASAP. The anxiety is killing me already.

    Did you try the PVT?

    jlan79 replied to mydestinyy's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm taking it tomorrow and I'm trying to calm myself down right now (unsuccessfully). I studied consistently for a month, did all the Kaplan Qbank and question trainers, and I feel like I can't really study that mu...

14. NCLEX TOMORROW ... EEK!

    jlan79 replied to NurseB_'s topic in NCLEX

    I am testing tomorrow too! I'm so freaked out! I got a 65 on QT6 and a 69 on QT7. I am hoping that this is enough. I'm going to go over some last minute things today and then nothing tomorrow (I'm testing at 2pm). Will just try my best to relax and j...

    Yes, they are higher order questions according to my Kaplan instructor. So you do want them, but I know I hate seeing them when they come up.
