I am sure that I failed at 75Qs. :(

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I just got home from the test taking center.

I did not really prepare my nclex due to some family issues. i did some ati tests, which took all my confidence away. also i did the kaplan q trainer and got around 60%. tried to read the sunders, but couldn't really focus on that, so many information from that book. :(

My grade in my calss is not that good, especially for the second and third semester. So I always said to my friends "hope i can get between 100 and 150 questions, although i want to finish by 75. but i don't think i am that excellent to pass at 75 questions, if i only got 75, that means i failed".

today, it becomes to a truth. i finished the exam at 75 questions. i spend less than 2 hours on that. (when i did the surgey, the computer asked me if i want to take my break).

i got only 3 SATA, some infection control, some priority ("which one will u assess the first"), tones of medications. i did not spend time on preparing meds, and i guess i failed mostly due to this part. :(

also, there is not question like "which client will u assign to the RN", "which client will u discharge at first"... seems like i was getting some low level questions :(

i am panic now! i dont want to spend another month on studying :(

You just can not predict with this exam. Hang in there and try to distract yourself whilst waiting for results. Good luck

My mother took the nclex on march 6th of last week. She was "sure" she did not do well when her computer turned off at 75 Q's. But she did WELL, she passed and is now an RN after being an lpn for 4 years. I'm sorry to ramble but I'm so proud of her. I know you did well also, just keep your head up and think positive.

Honest it doesn't mean anything, People can pass with different questions and different number of questions. I know it is hard waiting but hang in there and wait for results. This is just one exam you can not predict and many thing they have failed and they didn't

Thanks Silverdragon112.

I am so scared. I knew most of people thought they did not pass but found out that they did. But..... I dont know..... I just don't think that I can pass with only 75 questions, and with soooooooooo many meds and only 3 sata :(

You can pass with any type of questions as the exam is set to test you on your weaknesses. I know it is horrible waiting but I am sure you will do fine. Again good luck
