so, that's it?

i took the nclex last thursday. i was full of angst and concern before the exam. i settle down and start taking the test, click, click and boom, i am done.

i left the building feeling empty. the test was not what i expected it to be. the whole thing was really anti-climatic. the culmination of two weeks of review and study left me reflective but not happy.

did anyone else feel this way?

btw, i passed the exam.

( i used the hurst review and found it to be very helpful)

CONGRATULATIONS!

Glad to know you find it easy since a lot of those who took the exam find it really tough..

I also felt that way when I took the exam. I was really expecting to reach about 200 questions. so, when he computer gaved me a break at 84 questions I grab it. I went out and eat my 2 chocolate mallows. As I returned to my seat to continue answering, it shuts off after I answered may not more than 5 questions. I heard some ringing in my ears i felt a little dizzy. maybe, I almost faint that time.haha:bugeyes: the lady in charge said i looked pale. I really thought I wont pass most especially that i waited more than 1month for my result. It is such a torture! :sasq::weatherstruck:but then, when I receive that small envelope, i felt so happy!!! haha.:hpygrp::anpom::dancgrp: that's it.

i did not mean to imply i thought the test was easy. it was hard, but in a weird way. have done really poorly on exams and i knew it walking out afterwards. i have taken exams that i did great on and i knew it after finishing. its just this exam, i could not figure out how i did, it was really weird...

i left the exam thinking i had done either really well or quite poorly. i don't think i was sure on most of my answers. i just kept thinking what i was told during hurst, choose the answer that would kill the patient, priority for care...
