I feel horrible!!!

Published

Ok- I took my RN NCLEX this morning. I got 75 questions. 24 of them

were SATA a handful of prioritizing and 3-4 exhibit questions. Hardest test I've ever taken. I did virtual ATI and got a 95% chance of passing on the first try. I am convinced, however, that I failed. Only twice did I get 2 SATA in a row. Anyone have any insight?

Why not try to relax until you get the official results? It really won't be that long, and then you'll know for sure whether you have something to worry about. I know it's difficult waiting, but there are some of us who waited six weeks for results and survived the experience!

Good luck getting a positive result.

Ah the 48 hour wait. People will tell you to take your mind off it but I say cope with it your own way, whatever passes the time. I compulsively googled my irrational concerns about the test. I found that each experience is so unique it's difficult to find specific answers. SATA has nothing to do with passing or failing. Hard test generally means you're getting higher level questions.

take test 2 times.

first time I got more than 30/75 SATA. Did not count. fail.

this time I got 24/86. pass

Try the PVT, this should ease your mind for a few days until you get the results.

What state are you in? I took mine yesterday too and i have ny passing results on BON. Look at your board of nursing web page to see if you have a license number.. good luck :)
