i took the nclex last friday, aug. 1 i got 75 questions. i really wished it would stop at 75.:icon_roll with 7 sata, 6 meds, 1 calculation, lots of priority questions, infection control and delegation. i know many have posted like this. when it turned blue after question 75, my body trembled and told my self that i am sure i passed, i am crying while answering the survey question and hardly read all the questions and answered mostly with strongly agree. :bluecry1:

but then after a while, looking back on the questions and choices i have encountered in the exam, i realized that most i got wrong. i didn't try to look at my notes but had to relax.but i just feel that i didn't make it. i went out with my friends and drank. now that i'm home, with still no result, i'm kinda feel down right now, feeling that i have failed. :crying2:

the good thing now is that nclex is over. i know that the waiting period will also be over soon. whatever the result will be i need to face it strongly. i need to be strong... i need to control and focus.. lord, dear god, i know you are always with me.. whatever your plans to me, i'm ready:redpinkhe

I had 265 q's when I took NCLEX and playing the waiting game was nervewracking. I am sure that is a feeling shared by most test takers. Best of luck to you!

honey i am right there with you i now i should feel relieved that it is over but while trying to stay positive i find myself an emotional wreck :no:. had one of the worst nights of my life last night trying to sleep so i just found myself walking around boston last night with a friend had myself a pass/ fail hoorah if that is what you want to call it.

keep the faith dear and know that there are others out here how feel just like you do. i got so frustrated trying to explain how i felt to my boyfriend that i called up a friend and went out . plus with this site i can vent to yall and it's ok

Specializes in Pediatric critical care.

Hey! Please wait until you get your results! I swear, I felt the exact same way. I didn't even vent on here. I just cried. I called my mom and my husband and told them "look, I failed, and I don't want to hear anything about you knowing that I didn't" and they were both like okay and then I hung up. About half an hour later, my mom called and said "I don't care what you say you don't want to hear, I know in my heart that you passed" I said "Yeah and I feel it in my heart that I failed" She said "Well, I know you passed" that was the end of the conversation. Many of my friends told me not to feel defeated, and so the rest of the day after my husband came home, I was fine. The next morning I found out that I had passed with 75 questions. The rest is just a waiting game and its the hardest part. Good luck!!!!

I definitely understand how you all feel. This waiting is really getting on my nerves. I felt like I failed too when I left and I have been exercising trying to relieve stress and get away from my mom who keeps saying you passed don't worry! URRGGG:banghead:

I felt the same way when I took my NCLEX I thought at first I did great, and when I started talking to my friends...i was like oh i had a lot of priority questions...i wonder if i did okay?!? I cried until i knew the results, that I had passed.

Good luck to you! Positive thoughts!
