hi guys everyone here is talking what question types and how many they got on their nclex, just wondering, how were you able to count the question types during the exam. some are specific with their count, i wonder how i could count each time at the same time analyzing critically.. :specs:

I feel the same way, I can remember only three questions and not even sure how they were worded. I give credit to those who did that. Wish I had jotted something down on the erase board. I find out within three hours, haven't slept or ate, took my kids to the movies just in case I have to go into a coma for a few days to deal with it all. The mental and physical torture this takes is beyond words.

I personally couldn't remember what I took and to be honest didn't want to remember as long as I knew I had given it my best shot and had studied then to me that was all that mattered. If trained in the US you have a 87% chance of passing first time where as foreign trained is looking at 47%. Stressing out afterwards about questions and types isn't going to change your results so better to not think about it. I know not easy to do

Every time I got a SATA I put a little check on my dry erase board. I saw on this message board that someone else did that, and that's where I got the idea from. As far as what the questions were about, I can recall 10 out of the 75 questions.
