Had all 265 on the 1st and 2nd attempt

I graduated in December of 2009 and took the NCLEX for the first time in February and failed after 5 1/2 hrs with all 265 questions. I tried the PVT and it went to the CC screen and I was heartbroken. After months of beating myself up and regretting not being better prepared I gave it another shot today. I got about 30 minutes of sleep last night and haven't ate in 2 days while trying to cram and desperately prepare myself for this attempt. I know that's not the best way to get ready, but I couldn't sleep and I've been studying for a couple of months now answering anywhere from 200-800 questions a week on my Hogan CD and my Saunders CD. If not having any sleep wasn't bad enough, I had a 90 min ride to the Pearson testing center today and the air conditioner in my car quit working as I was leaving home, so I had to explain to the testing monitors there why I was sweaty and wet. Anyway to get to the point, I took it again today and once again had all 265 questions and it took 5 hrs and 50 mins. My contacts were fogging up and my mouth was dry but I never got up once for a break. I stuck with it the entire time. Got home and seen the delivery was successful so tried the PVT and got the "Good Pop-up." Hopefully it won't let me down. It took a lot of studying and a lot of prayers.

Thank You Jesus!!!

Still praying and holding out hope that I did indeed pass, but if the PVT holds true, then I'm an RN!!! :D

Wow, sounds like your day was awful! Way to stick with it! Hope you passed!

Congrats!!! All that hard work and determination pays off now.

Good luck, I hope u passed too. I took it yesterday, got all 265 and it took me 5 hours. But I got the "good" pop-up too. So don't feel bad that u had all 265 because you're not alone. And I'm glad I'm not either, because I felt like I was the dumbest nursing graduate on earth yesterday. Not all of us will get by with only 75, but the important thing is PASSING. Hope we did. ;)

PRAISE HIM IN ADVANCE!:yeah::yeah::yeah::nurse:
