I Flunked NCLEX!!

Published

On a "sample" NCLEX test hosted by my local newspaper, with the exception of the first few L&D related questions - I flunked!

Thank god we don't have to re-take the dang thing.

Now imagine some hump takes the quiz, and by chance gets 100% or scores better than his nurse-friend. It will totally diminish what it takes to be a nurse and what a nurse really does. Again. :rolleyes:

You want to beware that a long second stage could indicate a possiblity of shoulder dystocia. Definitely not common knowlege.

On the urine output one: at that point post op, the most common cause for decreased urine output is blood loss.

Well, guess I fell in the 80% as most. Got 12/15. And I taught LVN's?

13/15 for me. Missed the OB questions. Could be we haven't had OB in my hopstial for over 20yrs. i did better then I thought I would though.

I got 9/15 I'm afraid to say missed all the ob and the peds ones. Missed the calculation. Just guessed because I didn't know the tubing. I'd fail the NCLEX today for the exact same reasons.

I too am glad we only have to take it once.

Based on that test, I would have to turn in my license.....:o I feel like I don't know jack now after that test...:imbar

The last question stunk!!!

I guess they included a "sample" NCLEX to see if "you have it what it takes" to be a nurse.

I would think that looking at a test like that would scare away many potential nurse wannabes! :rolleyes:

14/15

Missed an OB question.

9/15 cuz I know jack about OB. Hey, but I guessed the right IV tubing and got that one right. :cool:
