Has anyone took NCLEX in the afternoon?

Published

Hi! I scheduled my exam at 2pm.I know our mind is more fresher in the morning, but I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep the night before because of anxiety. So I move it in the afternoon. Is there more sucess rate in the morning? I'm already freakin out. I only have 3 weeks to go!!!

I scheduled my test at 1415, but I got there earlier and was able to start. I finished I think in about an hour. I took it later that way I was not jumping out of bed and taking it. I ate some steel oats in the morning and tried to relax. I didn't sleep so well the two nights before so it helped. I passed with 75 questions. :)

I took mine on Feb 2 @ 1 pm. I actually arrived at the testing center around 12:20 pm and they let me take the exam at 12:45 pm.

Taking the test in the afternoon was a lot better for me because there was no traffic and I'm not a morning person. On the exam day, I actually woke up at 9:30 am, feeling relaxed. If I took the exam at 8 am, I have to be up early and the morning commute will definitely make it worse for me.
