Hello! So I took my NCLEX-RN February 23, 2015 in California and failed...I got 265 questions, a small variety of questions. Who do you see first, like 10 sata, one OB question, 6 meds, 2 pictures, and delegation and was confused/upset when I left...did I not learn enough from nursing school that I did that bad? Either way I would have accepted if I failed or passed. It's not the end of the world and I'm a very optimistic person I'll get it next time. Ultimately I failed and I got my CPR about 7-10 days later. I busted my butt with ati the first attempt, then took the three week course of NCSBN program did alright 70-80% on the questions, felt I was ready when my day came. On April 16, 2015 I took my second attempt and the computer shut off at 75 questions. I was feeling pretty good, majority of people Iv talked to and what I have read, said they all passed at 75? This time around I got some delegation, a few who do you see first, one cardiac strip, one drag and drop, a few interventions, I think 10 sata again and close to the end the last 10 questions were on meds that were easy to break down, the last question I got was pretty easy? I walked out happy...waited the 48 hours and nothing on breeze. On Saturday evening I saw two posts on IG of people's results, I almost lost it and was sure I failed again. It is now almost a week that has gone by and no results still. I need help from anyone who has been in the position or knows how the processing goes or be blunt and tell me I failed? Also some advice on what the next step is? I'm staying positive that it is a learning experience but two spectrums of the test and failed both doesn't settle easy with me? Thanks for reading:)
Just a quick update. after the longest 1 week of my life i finally saw my name on breeze and i got a license. PVT worked for me. I checked it after 24 hours and got good pop up. To God be all the glory.
Hey Kayteen. i just wanna share with you that i used kaplan as my study guide and also La charity's prioritization, delegation and assessment book. Those are the only resources i used. Initially i used Saunders but i feel like Kaplan's questions are more similar to Nclex. I stopped using saunders eventually. Also, keep in mind that you must know your content as it is a big advantage when studying your rationales.
with that being said, i wish you good luck on your journey. keep striving and aim high. Good luck and God Bless you.

Don't give up Kayteen. Not until you get your results it is never confirmed. I got the good pop up but until it is not confirm i cant rest as well. it has been almost a week since i took the test now. I will update once i receive them
