Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Phew! Just finished taking NCLEX RN. Finished at 170 something questions. When the computer stopprd I was in shock. Walked to my car, still in shock. I had no idea how I did through out the test. Usually people say they can tell when they're doing bad etc, but I felt like my questions stayed the same difficulty level throughout the test, which worried me a lot. I was preparing to go to 265. I felt very comfortable taking the test, I was familiar with a lot of the questions (thanks to kaplan and hurst). Lots of conference questions and alternative type questions. I'm so relieved it's over with though. I couldn't help but try the pvt, and so far have the good pop up. Crossing my fingers that I see my name on ca bon site. Thank you all for the support, tips and reassurance! time to relax

wasn't feeling nervous at all....now I am lol

what are conference questions?

Yeah I thought the conference questions felt like below passing level questions too lol. Qt 6 and 7 are analysis/application questions. The qbank is suppose o be all application /analysis type. Qt 1/2 are recall/recognition and qt 4/5 are mixed (:

I felt like NCLEX was harder than the Qtrainers. The computer will find out your weakness, it did find mine and I got a lot of cardiac drugs which I hated the most!

So the good pop up really means I passed? I'm in IL.

Congrats! I took NCLEX yesterday as well (my second time) and got the good pop up. I had around 10 SATA, 4 drop and drag (ugh), 1 exhibit, and several priority questions. I also had lots of OB and psych. My computer shut off at around 83-86 questions. I don't know for sure because I stopped looking. I was sure I had failed again and didn't even do the PVT trick until almost 12 hours later for fear that it would take me to the CC page again. Imagine my elation at the pop-up! Just have to wait 13 more hours until I can get my quick results.

LaCharity my scores were 50 - 70% averaging 60%. This reviewer is the best!

As long as you are getting 60% and above you're good. Just take it one question at a time, read the questions carefully. Know the lab values, s/sx of diseases and substance abuse, infection control and prioritization and delegation.
