Disgusted......

I'm so very sorry. I kind of know what you are going through. I took my NCLEX this morning and I am certain I didn't pass. It was horrid. :crying2: :sniff:

I took nclex yesterday morning and although Pearson Vue says my results are not available, I checked my BON and it says I need to return my GN license. I failed with 75 questions, feel like the biggest moran idiot on the face of the earth. I am disgusted with myself and humiliated. I don't know what to do...I can't stop crying:sniff:

Don't feel like a moran, most of us go through this!!

I failed the first time at 75...it was humiliating. But I picked up the pieces, and I just took mine at 265, and am 99% sure I failed. But I have to start over with the studying and reviewing.

We will get through this....promise.

I'm so very sorry to hear your news. :icon_hug:

It's okay to cry, let it all out. Take 2 weeks off to relax and try your best not to think about the test. Don't even open a book. Then begin studying in a fresh state of mind and realize YOU CAN DO THIS. It seems like many people pass using Suzanne's Plan, you should check into that or I used Kaplan which I thought helped. Also you now know exactly what to except for the test and what the testing center is like so you'll be more prepared next time.

I'm praying for you.

I'm so sorry to hear your news...I just took my test this morning and it shut off at 75...so many people think that means you pass, but it doesn't. I have a horrible feeling that I failed too. Can you tell me what your test was like and how you prepared for it?

My test was mostly teaching and priority along with 4-5 med calculations of which I probably only got 1 or 2 correct. I used Kaplan live course and online and was scoring in the low to mid 60's on q-trainers and qbank. I don't know what else I could have done. I am honestly in shock and I'm more in shock that my BON has this information before Pearson says my results are available. Anyone know what is up with that?? I'm hoping it is a mistake but I'm certain it is not and just wishful thinking. I am the only one of my classmates that has failed with 75 questions. I am sick!

I guess every test is different and it really just comes down to whether you are familiar with the topics or not...All you can do is keep studying and try again. Dont give up

I am so sorry...please try to keep your head up high. Take some time to relax and regather yourself before beating that beast of an NCLEX. People have to retake all the time...you're not alone, and you will get through this bump in the road.

Is it possible it says to turn in your GN license because once you take the test you are not considered a GN anymore? (regardless of whether you pass or not). Not sure how it works where you are but you are but here in Connecticut you are only considered a GN or GPN (grad practical nurse) until the time you take the NCLEX, once that test is taken you loose your GPN or GN status

I don't understand how the BON would have your results before PearsonVue had it available for you to see, THEY are the ones that notify the BON of your pass/fail status.

Not to get your hopes up but until you see either PearsonVue showing failed, you can't assume you did.

keep your head up high and try again next time. :up:

You have no idea how much I want to believe that but I am still very much afraid that I did fail. I just checked and my results are still not up from Pearson although I took the test Tuesday and finished at around 9am so technically I still have a few hours to wait. Will keep you posted but I have a sick feeling in my stomach that I failed...Thank you for your comments tho, it gives me a small glimmer of hope.
