Did I Really Take Nclex Yesterday???

Published

I am graduating with my BSN on May 17th :nurse:

Kansas got rid of the "new graduate" RN status so we were allowed to test PRIOR to graduation. I was the first one to get my ATT and schedule my exam for April 30th at 800.

Now, I'm not a "morning" person and this really wasn't my peak test taking time.

I've been using the Saunder's book and practice CD for questions :typing. I also took a HESI exam which predicts success with NCLEX if you score >850 and I did. With all that on my side, I was still so incredibly nervous. I slept about two hours the night before and got up around 530.

My first question was pretty difficult. And I must have gotten that right because my second question was a "select all that apply". I must have gotten that wrong because it was nothing but multiple choice about "priority," "teaching,", and "what would the nurse do first" after that. But by question #8 I was back to a "select all that apply". And I know I got that right and question #9 was another "select all that apply". In total, I received about 10 "select all that apply," one "ranking," two medication administration calculations (later in the exam in the 50's), and the rest were multiple choice.

Question #74 was a "select all that apply" about something I've never heard before but used ABC's and Maslow's to try and guess. I don't think I got that one right because question #75 was a multiple choice.

Then the screen shut off at 75.

I felt pretty confident walking out of the testing center, but now that some time has passed I feel like I didn't get anything right...did I REALLY remember to round correctly, etc.?

This really sucks!!! :uhoh21:

I am sure that you did fine! Everybody feels that way before and after testing. I graduate May 17th with my BSN too. I took my test in Feb and passed. How long do you have to wait for your results? I had to wait 4 weeks here in Ca...it was agonizing! Let me know how you did.
