I got my NCLEX results today....

Published

i took the nclex for the first time on monday and just found out that i passed!!!!! i had 128 questions and it took me about 2 hours. it was the hardest test i have ever taken and when the computer turned off i was sure i failed. i left feeling like i did't know a thing. good luck to everyone who is waiting to take there test, study hard you can do it. :roll

i got 237 yesterday and feel miserable. i had a 45 minute drive home by myself and cried. i did real well in school and felt very prepared since i've been doing graduate work for 3 weeks.

the first 75 seemed easy to me and thought it would stop there. but it kept going and going and going and it took all i had to concentrate and not to break down. 5.5 hours staring at a screen to test for your future is torture. i hated to call my wife when i was done and tell her it took me that long.

the next 100/150 or so were the most difficult questions i have seen. not sure what that really means. i'm just really not confident i passed and i'm expecting the worse. i have never seen so many medications i've never heard or seen before. i wanted to cry i was so frustrated.

however, i do feel a bit more hope since coming here and reading. i just feel awful because my wife has sacrificed for 3 years to get me in school and we've both made plans for her to cut back to part time when i get my license. now i don't know.

There's really nothing you could do if you dont pass, except just take it

again. Keeping a positive attitude definitely helps.

I'm not going to try to stress about it when I take mine next month.

If I dont pass, I'll just take it again till I do pass. I'm going to give it

all I've got and if I dont succeed, I'll try again. My thing is being as

relaxed as I can. So the day before, Im going to get a massage,

do some stress busting exercise and go in there prepared.
