My nclex experience

hi all! well i passed my nclex-pn and i just figured i'd share my perspective. the test was strange. very hard to describe. nursing process, psych, some labs, pharmacology and about 1/3 of the test was sata ?s and 8 order of process. i found the wording weird and misleading and some were hard to tell what they were asking for. my computer shut down @ 85 questions. i was both relieved and sick at the same time. i took it with 2 other buddies from school and they felt the same way. much to our surprise we all passed! I used, exam crams, kaplan, and saunders book and cd. and all i can say is that i'm happy it's over and i have my life back...wooohooo i'm a nurse!!!! time to party!!!! doing the happy dance with my kids and no more studying for me!!!!! yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and once again this forum is an awesome resource for info and support so take advantage of it. i can't tell you enough how much this has helped me!!! ;D

Mine was like that, too, only mine was RN. Oh man that test was awful!!!! I can get quick results Wednesday. I hope I passed cuz I sure feel like I failed!!

Hiiieeee so labs as in lab tests or actual values??

Both, but mainly lab values. And you need to know what specific labs are for.
