Going In Scared, Came Out Stunning

Published

Specializes in Oncology.

I just came back from the NCLEX and feeling stunning about the test. I could not believe the questions I was getting! I was waiting for the hard questions, but I did not encounter any. I had 2 calculation questions on titration, about 7 pharm questions, 12 S.A.T.A. questions; a lot of infections control, delagation and priority questions; peds, respiratory, cardiac and endocrine questions; in fact my first question was about grave disease which is hyperthyroidism. I had a total of 75 questions in almost 2 hours. I am confident that I did well, but I just need to wait for Wednesday morning to find out about my results. I will let you know.

Thanks

learn about infection control. there is a thread here that have a form posted to download from pinoy rn, or go on ................must know about the precautions to take, for example with a pt who as meningococal meningitis which is to wear a surgical mask(droplet precautions). also use standard precautions for all pts you will care for.

Thanks, I am glad to hear your kind word. Yesterday I was scared about going to test. I have studied for 6 weeks straight using ncbsn course review(studied all 1100Q and rationales), hesi review book and cd, kaplan book and cd, saunders book and cd and the incredibly made easy cd questions. Also used all my nursing book and class notes as resources. I took the infection control in service at my workplace and kept the notes to study,and also used this website on tips and important subjects that are being ask on the exam. Even after preparing like that, I was still scared to take the exam for fear on how difficult the exam is and how many felt like they fail the exam. Today, while taking my exam, that feeling was not there and til my last question I was not petrified. I do not know if it is right to feel the way I do but I can't help it. I just pray that my hard work paid off and in two day I will find out how I did.

Thanks again to hear that I am not alone to feel that way.
