It's over! No more NCLEX for me!

Published

I just found out that I officially passed the NCLEX-RN. What a relief!!!!! I took it yesterday, March 26th. The computer shut off at 75 questions and I freaked out...even though I honestly thought I was doing fine. It only took me 1 hour and 15 minutes. I was shakin' all over and had tears in my eyes when I finished. I could not believe that it went by so fast. I know this sounds weird but, it really wasn't that bad the questions were pretty straight forward and it was more about common sense than anything else.

I got a ton of SATA's, 3 drag and drops, a few meds that were familiar... and there were like about 4 that I did not know the answer AT ALL and just tried to make an educated guess.

I used Saunders Comprehension, PDA,NCLEX 4000 and Kaplan QTrainers. I recommend all of these. Saunders has EVERYTHING for content. It's a huge book to digest but it's a must. I only did the questions that came after each chapter. I did some of their alternate format ones, too. I don't recommend doing the other ones because they are not NCLEX style. The KAPLAN QTrainers were in fact harder that the NCLEX and honestly after doing those...I was comfortable when I was doing my test...it seemed like another QTrainer. The NCLEX 4000's alternate format ones, especially the SATA were so much like the NCLEX.

I did the PVT, got the good popup! Today I saw my name on the board, YAYYY!

Good luck to everyone who is taking the NCLEX! NEVER LOSE CONFIDENCE. Say to yourself everyday that you CAN do this!!!

Congrats! All the best in your nursing career!!

Congrats!!!! What I big relief! I personally thought NCLEX was the worst test ever, but I was only overreacting because I got more than 3 SATA when I expected less! haha! Those alternative item questions can make you loose confidence fast!

NCLEX is totally passable if you just study right!
