Hello everyone,
I just wanted to update that I took my NCLEX this morning. I was in there for 3 hours and had a little over 200 questions. I feel I did everything right this time. I took my breaks when I got tired, I did my breathing exercises and calmed my anxiety. I know I did better than my first time, and did 10X better than my second attempt. Just by the number of questions I had shows I was that much closer to passing than prior.
I had 50-75% priority/delegation/which patient do you see first in an ER situation questions. I had NO calculations and no new format questions. I have to say however, that it was the hardest test of my life. I had to keep positive talking myself and telling myself "I'm still passing". After so many questions you ask the computer "What do you want from me! Haven't I proven I'm worth giving a passing grade yet!" Exhaustion has a funny way of making you talk to inanimate objects.
Just wanted to say as well, good luck to all who took the NCLEX and also those waiting...I'm right there with ya!
God Bless,
Jacel

Hi Everyone,
I am new to the site and have been so reassured by everyone else being as scared as I have been after taking the nclexRN. I took my test on the 23rd and I still don't know my results. I just found out that my school just sent the final transcripts, so it could be a week or two before I know. I shut of at 75 and most people say that means I passed, but I just want to know for sure...
Lots of priority and delegation and quite a bit of resp. and neuro.
Good Luck to all, it is a stressful time and it is so nice to have this site to come to and get reassurance...
