I am not one to post, but I hope by doing so I can help someone who is going through a difficult time waiting to get their NCLEX results. I took my exam on a Friday morning, I was so nervous I was sure that everyone around me could hear my heart pounding!! Took a deep breath and started. Many of my friends passed at 75 questions so once I got to 76 I started to panic! I spent the whole 6 hours in there and got all 265 questions! I definitely took my time to make sure I didn't miss anything... Take breaks you need them. I couldn't get to my car fast enough to cry! There was not a doubt in my mind that I failed. I had so many SATA and kept getting questions on certain topics that I knew I must be struggling in that area. When I got home that night I kept going over certain questions that I realized I got wrong and was beginning to feel incompetent and defeated. I did not sleep the first night and couldn't eat I was so worried. All my hard work meant nothing is how I felt. I prayed and prayed. Well, I checked Sunday morning and I PASSED!!!! Do not let the number 265 mean anything to you other than, wow you were able to stay in the game by answering that many questions!!! You can do it!!
