This website is god sent. I just took the test yesterday and I honestly don't know how to feel. Surprisingly, I usually have test anxiety, but yesterday I was calm up until question #75 I thought the computer was going to shut off, some friends took the test and got #75 and failed so I was hoping and praying that I would go past 75 and I did. I got to 81-85 I am not sure, prioritizing, delegation, and a few meds, no calc, no select all and it shut off. I just sat there not accepting that the computer shut off, I finally got up and left. I wanted to feel bad, I wanted to cry but couldn't. I had a long drive home and I was okay. Finally, a weight lifted and I felt like I gave it my all whether I passed or not. I would ask previous test takers what they did but I came to realize that it was in me to take control of my life and stop trying to find an easier way so I studied very hard, I honestly had to reteach myself to get an understanding of the material, not just memorize it. I neglected a lot of aspects of my life. This journey has been a very difficult one maybe one of the hardest if not the hardest, but I won't take anything for granted. It is easier said than done, but this website let's me know that I am not alone in my struggles and you are not alone. As the days go on reality is setting in, but I refuse to have a pity party and deal with whatever comes my way. These lessons are not in vain, they either make you are break you, and please don't make them break because you have come too far to turn around now. So with all that being said, be encouraged.

nice speech I really need to hear that. I am taking my NCLEX on Thursday and I am used to having anxiety as well but lately I have been really calm. I have been going over alot of information that I felt I was weak in as well. I pray I do well and have to only take it once. Thanks for posting those encouring words.
