Appeared in NCLEX yesterday.. got about 8+SATA (lost count after 6).. 2 audio.. 1 picture.. 1 dosage calculation.. prioritization (which would you assess FIRST?).. very few delegation questions (those are EASY).. infection control (mneumonics REALLY help)... pharmacology (involving known drugs).. BUT i found myself guessing most of the exam.. I used to ALWAYS end up with 2 possible answers..Came out and checked PV to re-register 30 minutes later- Got the good pop up..
:clpty:
So I hope this trick works for me TOO.. in fact, the only one answer i was sure about was dosage calculation.. i am an "average student".. but i prepared for NCLEX in 14 days studying for 12hrs everyday.. i did have many distractions (facebook, twitter, iPhone games, music etc).. i used my ATI books as well online ATI web resources + Saunders iPhone app wid 1000+ questions ($30) + NCLEX Quiz Card System App on iPhone wid 3500 questions ($4 only).. THESE APPS WERE VERY GOOD FOR REVIEWING QUESTIONS esp the latter.. $4 for 3500 questions Buy them if you have the time.. they both give rationales along wid their answers!! last but definitely not the least: allnurses.com
:lvan:
i have NEVER gotten such support.. 5 days ago i almost had a panick attack..and you guys helped.. :hug: (and you are FAST).. I did calm down... refocused..and moved on!! On the day of the test, i had prepared myself to appear in ALL of the 200+ questions in 6hrs..But i was secretly praying for the computer to shut off at 75..which by the way, IT DID!! Otherwise i wud have grown anxious and did something Stupid at the testing center! JK :throcomp:
I really had hoped NCLEX would be HIGH LEVEL in difficulty but it was the WEIRDEST exam i have ever given...i think its clearly "OVERHYPED" .. i had read about each and every item that was on the test..BUT i NEVER paid much attention to those "little things" and guess wat? NCLEX made questions on those "little things" in a twisted manner.. YEAHH! That's how it was.. so it was not Difficult at all... you WOULD have encountered these things almost everyday as nursing students BUT didnt really think much of it.. ahemmm.. Yeah its called CRITICAL THINKING!! :doh: And thats what NCLEX was all about.. some questions were VERY SIMILAR to those which i practised! so yeah, definitely practice as many as u can..This helped me to be comfortable and confident in exam..BTW i have no idea how's LaCharity, Saunders Book, Kaplan and Exam Cram coz i didnt use any of them..my point is you would not come out and say- "I knew everything on NCLEX coz i used all those books and i am SURE i got this".. (Disclaimer: If u DID come out feeling like u've won the battle then you are AWESOME.. :bowingpur: lol) So future nurses.. good luck studying for NCLEX... BE CONFIDENT and remember STAY CALM.. Mentally prepare yourself too and for those who made it... :ancong!:
Now i am gonna go and stare at PVT good pop up once again and make sure its still there!! :dncgbby:
Hello, I took my Nclex RN exam yesterday September 23 and checked the pearsonvue website and got the good pop up too! Now I can't wait to see my official result Thanks to God and to my family for the support.
i took mine yesterday too. got the whole 265 questions. i'm getting the good pop up but how accurate is this? do you know anyone who had the good pop up and ended up failing the exam?
I really hope someone answers your question, because ive been wondering myself....even though I've gone through what seems THOUSANDS of peoples responses, and never found any that got the "good" popup, and failed.
it's an agony. i haven't slept much since last night. i've been thinking about it. how long does it take for my name to show up at the BON site if ever i passed? we don't have quick results here in CA that's why it's even more miserable having to wait for like 4 weeks.
I know how you feel. My stomach has been in knots since taking it yesterday, and I've barely been able to eat =/ ....... I live in Ohio, and am able to see the quick results whenever they become available.....My heart completely goes out to all of those who live in California and have the longer wait =/.....Lets hope for both of our sakes, that the good pop-up is RIGHT! :)
