Alot of SATA on my NCLEX

Published

I took my NCLEX today and I was astonished at the number of SATA questions I received. I had 23 SATA, I had to tally it because I thought I was seeing things for a minute. At one point I got 3 SATA back to back. It was like a cruel joke:jester::zzzzz. The computer shut down at 75 and I know a lot of people think that this is good, but I really dont know if I passed. I was shocked, I also got about 6 math, which is nothing compared to the SATA. SATA questions are like 5 questions in one and to think it only takes you missing one answer to get the whole question wrong:no:! Has anyone had this problem? because this is unheard of to me. I will let you guys know if I passed. Good luck to those who will take it soon.

well

I took mine yesturday And I am like 100 wait 200% know that I didn't pass and I am dragging my body through the floor of how bad I am feeling. My test was like all priority questions maybe like 5 sata but i didnt get those right b/c i will never get them back to back i can't remember how many math and meds questions. well It never did turn off I ran out of time like at 2 hundred and something questions. I was actually crying during the test because I knew I wasn't no where near doing got I felt like the test was like lets see who dum this girl is. But whatever things happen for a reason right. I have licked my wounds now and I am now planning to see what will be the best way to pass this test.

ok sorry i just needed to get that out of my system. Your test seems like it went better than mine. I'm sure u passed. The best wishes to you.

Tanny, mine also stopped at 75 questions and I had a boatload of SATA questions. I only had 1 med calculation though. You can't really predict how well you did though and it's frustrating. I hope you did well.

I took my boards in April. I had somewhere between 20-25 SATAs. The computer also shut off at 75. I was afraid I had failed because I did not receive a single OB question. However, I passed. I would think that since you got so many SATAs that it is a good sign. Good luck!

Good luck to you! I also tested yesterday and got 11 SATA and about 4-5 calculations and alot of priority questions plus one ordered response. Can you tell me if you are 100% you got your math calcs right cause I am not sure I did and that is what is worrying me. This was my second time testing and it shut off again at 75 just like the first time. :banghead:
