i sat the nclex last 19 here in manila. 3 pm. i was done in about 1.15 hours. i had 75 questions -15 satas ( uggh! some of them almost back-to-back)...i almost collapsed lol, and i have about 8 meds,and i have no calculations. i am very worried cuz my last three questions were very easy. since this site was a big help to me i'm gonna do my share of sharing.
1. believe everyone that 70 percent of the exam will be on delegation,prioritization,cohorting. i believe that this is the foundation of the exam. everything revolve around these 3 things.
2. tons of meds will be thrown in your face. just remember this: you do not need to study a pharma book! i am telling you! if you study one...i think,in my opinion, you will have a much harder time in nclex-pharma. just look in threads here for the "most commonly tested meds in nclex" and "most advertised drugs in us television"...it's about 150 drugs to familiarize with. everything is in there. i am very certain that i passed the pharma part in my exam. but the rest of the exam i am very uncertain.
3. pray. pray. pray.
it was hard. i hope i passed. keeping my fingers crossed. i leave my fate to the almighty one. thanks again everyone for the inputs and moral support.
