just took it...very scared

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Hi All,

I just got home from the NCLEX. I feel sort-of numb. I got 120 questions. It was as hard as everyone said it would be, but I still feel like it was the hardest test I ever took. I felt like I didn't know the answers to so many questions. The worst part is everyone that I went to school with that has taken it got 75 questions and 2 girls that were there left before me and both got 75 questions.

That makes me feel like I definitely didn't do well. I'm so upset I think I better just try and calm myself down for a little while. I don't think distraction is going to help for the next 2 days.

i just took mine on 1/25 and stopped at 135 and i also feel like i didn't do well. do you know anyone that failed at our numbers?

i feel worse than i did in nursing school, waiting, waiting, waiting, :crying2:

I have heard of those passing with our scores but i feel so bad to. I have been cleaning all morning to try and get it off my mind, than i go back to the books and look up a question i think of but it only gets more depressing when i find out the answer i put was wrong.I hope i haven't come this far to flunk out now, its even more heartbreaking than school. I'm even scared to call and get my results tomorrow.

Guys,

I know that it sucks waiting...because the last 2 days have been hell for me waiting for the results to come in. Have faith...you will and can do it...I will look foward to hearing more good news. I will pray for you all!!!

BIG (((HUGS)))) to you all waiting. I know just how you feel!! I had to wait 11...yes you see right 11 days! Talk about misery. I *KNEW* I had failed and was just sick, but I got wonderful news Monday, I passed and I know you all will get the same wonderful letters behind your name!!

RN!!!

Congratulations Susan, I can only imagine how wonderful you feel and what a relief you now have. :balloons: How in the world did you make it 11 days. I suppose to find out tomorrow and i have been very ill since the test, still vomiting and crying,can't eat or sleep just thinking how bad i did. wondering where i go from here if i'll be able to pick myself up and try again.

hey Melissa, know exactly how you feel. one moment i have hope the next vomitting. this is the cruelest thing i have ever been through. i don't wish this on my enemies. that is it, we resolve conflicts by making everyone take the NCLEX and wait forever the results. i get my results tomorrow also. good luck !!!!!

i'm leaving right now to go take my exam. i have the would's largest knot in my stomach. i could puke. well, here goes nothing. wish me luck.~kristy

Taking the NCLEX was the worst day of my adult life. All of my friends/classmates had passed with 65 questions. When question 66 popped up I just stared at the screen in disbelief. As the test went on, I just cried the whole time. On the break I went to the bathroom and cried as hard as I have in my whole life. It cut off at 160-something and I was in a daze. Went home and actually got into bed with a box of icecream because I just had no idea what to do. Cried the next day at work when people asked me about it. Couldn't even bare to make the phone call - had my dad call for me. But I passed! :)

Hang in there!

but i passed! :)

congratulationslawnurse!!!!

:yelclap: :smiley_aa :yeah:

Thanks - guess I should have mentioned this was a few years ago - but I wanted to post my experience to show that one's subjective view of whether or not they passed is a poor indicator of whether or not they actually did. I'm a classic example of that! :)

Hey everyone I'm new here and I also just took my test Jan.25. I had the max. 265 questions so i really feel sick,i came home from the test yesterday and cried and vomited all day. My friend who went with me only had 75, i think i was the only one who had the max cause i was the last one out. I really studied for that test but it was like where did that come from, there was alot i didn't know the answer to. I think maybe i should have not put RN after my user name.

Hey everyone! The best advice I can give you would to be go out and do anything you can to get your mind off of the fact that you just took that darn test... I sat around my house for 2 days almost positive that I had failed... I cried, could not sleep, you name it! I only wish I could have followed my own advice... Go out and see a movie, get together with friends....

The # of questions you get has nothing to do with whether you passed or failed.. I have heard of many ppl that get 75 and fail, and many that get all of them and pass and vice versa... you may have received a lot of "practice" test questions.. Hang in there! You will be an RN before you know it! Then it gets scarier! :)

Good luck!

I made it i can't believe it i was so sure i had failed with 265 questions i just knew there was no way.But it can be done at those numbers i'm living proof.All of my sickness has gone away.Thank You Jesus and for all 0f those that have prayed for me.
