So I Finally Found Out That I Passed This Morning....i Took My Exam On July 3...i Had 75 Questions...about 10-15 Sata...lots Of Infection Control And Prioritizing And Meds....2 Math Questions...and I Totally Had Felt Like I Definetley Failed. This Was The Longest 8 Days Of My Life...i'm Also Pregnant So The Hormones And Emotions Of Pregnancy Mixed With The Emotions And Anxiety Of Waiting For The Results Of The Most Important Exam In My Life...well Lets Just Say...its Been One Of The Most Emotional 8 Days Of My Life.

I'm So Glad That I Found This Website...it Did Really Help Me To Read Everyones Different Things About The Nclex...i Don't Know What I Would Have Done Without Being Able To Come On Here And Read And Vent A Little.

To All Of You That Are Waiting For Results...just Hang In There...and Stay Positive As Hard As It May Be. Good Luck To You All Studying For The Nclex And Those Of You Waiting For Your Results!!!

:yeah:I passed too as you can see from the other thread. Way to go!!! This website is wonderful but sometimes it instills a bit of paranoia! I was not going to even look online for four or five days and then after visiting here I was checking twice a day. So if you are waiting, try to chill out!

I took mine on the 8th out of state and just found this morning despite the board updating inbetween thoes dates.

I had about 18 SATCs, two math questions (that took me entirely too long, I was so nervous!), maybe 10 meds? (didn't count those) Lot's of priortizing and lots of infection control. I think it is very important to get infection control downpat and as I was taking it I was thinking "wish I had studied this more" because it helped you find the "safe" answer in many, many questions.

I took Hurst review and I really liked it except I thought the coursebook could be a tad more organized (I can see images of my notes in my heads and that often helps me internalize stuff, but their notes were set up somewhat poorly...lots of grammatical errors, bad formatting...but the content was good). I also used Saunders and Davis books and CDs to do questions out of and went to Barnes and Nobles and did about 500 questions from Lippincott the week prior. Saunders was also good to clarify content with, its very organized and clear. Hope that helps someone!
