How to cope

Published

Hey guys. so i took my NCLEX this morning and i feel absolutely awful about it. I know there's nothing i can do about it now, but i feel as if i were doomed from the get go. My very first question was a select all that apply. I got every form of question i feel like (select all, multiple choice, put in order, math, which picture is showing this, what is this picture showing). i got all 265 and i just feel deep down i failed. of course i have to go into work tonight but i just can't seem to stop crying and put myself together. any ways to help me cope.

Thanks!!

You won't know whether you passed or failed until you get the final result. I was SURE I had failed, and then six weeks later I got the results in the mail -- I had passed. Don't borrow trouble until it's yours for sure. Try to take a break from thinking about/worrying about the NCLEX -- nothing you can do about it tonight, anyway. I hope you passed.

do you know if there are any "tricks" to see if you have passed. i've heard about re registering but i've heard that it does and doesn't work. didn't know if you have had heard about something :)

The trick worked for me. I went to the cc page and it tried to take my money so I kinda knew I didn't pass. Sure enough I got the results and I failed. I'm planning on retaking it soon but I'll take my time with studying and doing it right compared to the first time. Good luck! I hope you passed!!

I felt the same way too when I took the examination. Then I passed 75 questions
