Im one of your newest member, I took the NCLEX exam for the 1st time last April 28. I was very keen on answering the first 75 questions because I had this confidence that I was well prepared for the exam. It took me a little less than 3 hrs to finish the 1st 75, but when the computer didnt stop :uhoh21: I lost my cool and boy If anyone could see my video taking the exam they would think Im going to break, I paused and prayed to my God to give me the courage to go on. I wanted to raise my hand and complain that there was something wrong with my computer because it kept on going, going and going haha ! I knew then that I would reach the 265 mark so I really tried to pace myself to finish before the 6 hrs was up, thank God I still have bladder control :stone. I had 8mins left to answer their survey. When I went out of Pearson I knew that after 45 days I would take the exam again, I was telling myself that I was crazy even to take the exam, NCLEX was no joke. After 72 hrs I found my name in the list of California BN with an RN license .
I really would like to thank the members who posted encouragements even if they reach the 265 mark, the forums kept me sane for 3 days.
