I took mine for the first time 7/2/09. My husband drove me to Morgantown, WV to the Pearson center. We got there about an 1.5 hr early so I went in to make sure I was at the right place. The lady told me I could take my test early. So I did. After about question 58 my mind started to wonder so I decided to take a break. I came back and after each question I answered I looked at the number thinking to myself when is it going to end. I answered question 92 and my screen went blank. I wanted to keep going because I didn't feel I had done well. I immediatly became nauseated, my heart sunk. I knew I had blown it. I had to go to the BR. My stomach began to do flip flops and back flips. I had to vomit. After about 10 min in the BR, I came back and did the exit survey. The nice ladies walked me out and told me good luck. The ride home was horrible. We had to stop many time because I was so sick. I kept thinking, what was I going to tell my friends and work? My husband told me not to worry- its just a test- I can re-take it if I need to. Don't worry..... 3.5 years of my life depended on this test.... I won't worry. When we got home I looked up some of the questions I wasn't sure about. Sure enough, I didn't answer them right. More reason to fail.
I looked on the SB site expecting to see a big FAIL beside my name. OMG!!!!!!!!!!! I have an active license. My status has been changed from temp to permanent. My heart began to do the jig. I wanted to scream but nothing came out. Of course my husband is at work and I can't tell him that I don't have to worry!!!


Wow, I passed. Seems like it is happening to someone else and I am watching it.

Think positive. Go into the BR before your test, look into the mirror and tell yourself "I am going to pass this test. I am!!! "


Good luck everyone, you will pass this test.

WOW!!!! That was really amazing! Congrats! Please pray for all of us here whoare still struggling!!!!!

Re: July 2009 NCLEX Support Group

I take mine July 10th in San Diego I'm terrified because my friend just took hers in NC and said OMG that was the hardest thing I've done in my life that was the hardest I ever had to think. Soooo I'm thinking you &*%#! why did you just do that too me but hey she was honest but I'm freaking out. She had 75 questions 2 math and I believe 7 or 8 SATA she hasn't received her results yet but lucky her she gets quick results.

I'm glad I found this thread maybe I will calm down because my anxiety is sooo high. My husband is deployed and he keeps telling me baby you're going to be fine you've passed everything else but I'm like this isn't everything else this is what will make me a little more marketable for a job I need a JOB. I know he is only trying to help but I think I'm under so much stress I can't see his encouragment all the time but I do tell him that I appreciate it.

I've been doing Kaplan questions, Saunders and the review course questions that we had from school. I'm trying to plan out the next few days does anyone have any suggestions. If some were already given just direct me to them I'm so tired of reading its not even funny.

Thanks for listening and everyone who will test soon will be in my prayers.

I didn't think they would upload today since it's July 4th, but I checked around 1 am and the site was down for updates. I stayed up until 3 to see my name I passed! My prayers have been answered Thank the Lord and all those who prayed to Him for me. I can't wait to start work in a couple of weeks!!!

P.S. The Pearson Trick worked for me
