    hey lillian! i know it's a little late but congrats on passing! hope you're braving this horrible job market. i have a feeling there will be an upswing soon. CONGRATS again! so glad my original allnurses support group has ended happily for the three of us.

    Hey Lillian, I actually haven't been checking on my name. I'm just going to wait it out for the official results in the mail. I won't even bother calling the BON, I already know that I failed...so I'm just preparing for the worst.

    So they haven't got results yet for you? That means there's still hope. Stay positive, you'll make it. I got my fingers crossed for ya

    Take Care & keep me posted

    hey lillian, I told jsome that we should give Suzzanes plan a shot and keep each other posted on how it's working out for us...im sure if we stick to that regimen we will definitely pass..based on all of these success stories ive been hearing...when all hope is lost try... suzannes plan! T/c we will make it.

    well, looks like we are 0 for 3. saint's name didn't show up either. i agree. today, actually i think i'll wait till tomorrow to start up again. i'm allowing my BP to stabilize a bit, wash off this crust around my eyes, and clean up my habitat. this cave has gotten mighty filthy these past couple of days.
    as i told saint, i hope you will still check on this site every now and then to update us on your progress. and, thank you for being a support during this waiting period.

    good luck and remain positive. i think we will all sleep better now.

    Hey jsome. no such luck for me either. bummer. oh well. today is the beginning of the regimented study plan. I think I was hasty when I signed up for the nclex. 67% on the readiness test is not that great. sigh...Maybe good news for Saint.

    Hi..well who really knows-right? My hopes feel pretty dashed either way. I just don't see posts of people who are passing and have waited 3-6 business days - holidays not counting (know what I mean?). You are right about here and now answers. That is the correct way to answer the questions. Hang in there. Suzannes Plan sounds rather appropriate from what I have read regarding her first tip. Also, this waiting would put anyone on edge- especially knowing one may be gearing up for another go. This is totally understandable. Ok to be on edge. I know that anyone who is clearly not in these shoes, checking, waiting, not knowing...may not really understand. I'm wondering what Suzannes plan looks like after the initial review (which I think is excellent by the way). Well wishes to you also. Keep posted on any news.

    that's great that you answered it correctly! personally, i think it matters if you got the last one right. i obviously got it wrong. i picked anal sex. i swore the client was currently engaged in unprotected sex while the others only had history of hep B and engaged in IV use two years ago. i thought a here and now answer would be correct. crap.
    yeah, she already received her results. she got 75 questions, passed. she finished at 10 AM though, i didn't finish till 630 PM so i hope that time difference has something to do with it. haha, unlikely but i'm banking on what little hope i have left.
    yeah, the 265 club thread was really helpful. this site has great threads and communicating with you and saint has been really therapeutic as well. just glad people can relate to what i'm going through. some of my friends and even my classmates that have passed just don't understand how i'm on edge. well, thanks for the well wishes and keep us updated.

    hey, Yeah I agree...I thought it was a below the line knowledge Q as well. I think I got it right but, that doesn't matter..... right? Did you think you got it wrong? I thought if the last question was below the line of difficulty (regardless of right/wrong)= no bueno. So frustrating. Did you test with a friend on the same day who already received their results? Also, I read the post of someone who tested on Monday...and it sounds as if they didn't find out until Friday. Good luck to you as well. Ever check out the posts from the 265 club? Good luck to you also. And...I'll be checking in with these posts.
