Just been waiting to say the magic word "PASS". Yes I PASSEDDDDD... with 75 questions. Came to know today , still feel numb just cannot believe I am an RN now.:balloons: :monkeydance: :biggringi :smiley_aa :smiley_ab
Thank God and thank you all for your help, support and prayers. I joined this website maybe .like 6 weeks ago and it has helped me tremendously. This is an AWESOME site.
I gave my test on the 11th and the whole experience of actually going to give the test was plain scary. I tried my best to stay calm, breathe and do everything else possible to try and not freak out. I sat for 5 min in front of the computer before starting. After I saw the first question I just felt blank, but slowly I warmed up. Took each question at a time, after 2 ½ hours I saw I had done only 63 questions. I was hoping to get only 75 questions. Thought I should speed up a bit. Then after 20 min got the blue screen. Though I felt I did horrible, it was a relief not to get any more of those questions. I got maybe 10-15 priority quests, 1 delegation, 5 meds (which I think I got wrong), 1 math.
I had done Saunders, Ncsbn review, Kaplan review and the last week did mostly Kaplan Qbank. Don't know if any of that helped but I would def recommend who is starting to prepare for nclex to really study Saunders, do the questions and then to do Kaplan. Nclex questions are def like Kaplan. With kap questions your mind starts thinking the way nclex wants you to think. Inspite of doing 1000s of questions, it's almost like the exam could read my mind and asked me quests on topics I have always had trouble understanding.
One thing I know for sure helped was prayers, never can go wrong with that. All I can say is I have been an avg nursing student and if I could pass you can too. If I can help anyone in any way, I will be more than happy to. You can post message or pm me. Study a lot, do lots of questions and don't forget to pray.
