For all the people with NCLEX jitters: STOPPED at 246 questions and Passed!!!

[WA_Nurse]

:heartbeat hi, well here is my story. i wanted to share with the people that are about to take nclex rn. i just took mine and it stopped at 246 questions. i took the whole 6 hours alotted to me. my thoughts were that i truly failed it again... but i had confidence because: i was getting the questions at a critical thinking level. it was a dreadful 6 hours and, i had to work 12 hour shift after that. but i made it and, what helped me was that i strengthen my knowledge level by going over the basic knowledge material that every nurse should know: (i.e. med/surg, medicatiions...). the biggest help of all was the kaplan book that taught me how to answer the nclex questions. soooo, don't take your time for granted. study every chance you get. set aside approximately 3-4 hours a day to strengthen your knowledge level. read the kaplan book to show you how to answer the questions. if you are an lpn, then you have the knowledge. definitely read the kaplan book. i know they offer like a week long course too. god bless to all the people here that share in their compassion, patience, & commitment to people in need!!!

i am so inspired by reading this! i read the kaplan course book and learned it by heart and i am doing the question trainers already...did 1,2,3 and got 64%,60%,57%, i worry everyday if i am on the right track or not or if i should go out and buy the saunders book and start all over. i have the saunders CD to practice some questions but i have realized that they help me learn and gain more knowledge but the kaplan questions make you think more...i worry everyday if i am on the right track...someone please coach me on this! this test means my life!

If the state participates in quick results then you will get your results 48 hours or just a bit over and this includes the weekends

Good luck

gintran, sounds like my horrid test. A ton of SATA. I wonder, what are considered lower level questions opposed to higher level questions. I had lots delegation, who would you see 1st, some pharm, Who a float nurse could see, no math.
