Today I took the RN exam. I feel it's hard. I am so frustrated. :cry:

Congratulations!!! How was it? was it really a difficult exam? What review materials did you use and how many months did you prepared for the licensure exam? I'm planning to write also perhaps early next year...

There are three options , actually this is what I did.

1. PASS is a preparation course in Toronto: http://www.passnurse.com

2. http://www.nurseseducation.com or [email protected]

3. http://www.certinurse.ca/default.asp?Page=/Extranet/home.htm

Good luck!!!!!

By the way, is it useful to attend professional profile????

Hello

I opened the mail box today after the work, and I found out that I failed......:( Does anyone have any experience with this failing? What is going to happen to me? I am scared to write October one now. :crying2:

Don't lose your confidence. You will be successful next time. By the way, I heard if you fail, you will receive the detail in your letter. Do you know the pass score?

151 was..

Well, if that's the case, they've definitely relaxed their standards. 50% +1 would never have been good enough even 5 years ago. When I wrote, the pass threshold was 65% of 700 questions.

I believe it is based on a statistical curve and not a percentage score. This year 151 just hapened to be the passing score

Thank's so much for the websites:) I'll be using them on my month off in august!

where does he live though? Is he going to come to near my place?

Congratulations to all those who passed the exam, the wait was definately brutal, and for those that weren't successful you need to remember that this exam wasn't easy for anyone; like most of us, i always said that for every question i was able to narrow the answers down to 2, and thereafter just had to guess, and if the rest of us used this approach throughout the exam it just shows that some of us were just better guessers than others. Review your scores and if you were just a few points off from passing don't change ur studying techniques, just maybe spend more time reviewing more difficult questions because that CRNE prep guide was not sufficient at all...Mosby's may be a better option. And for the passing score of 151, you have to remember that it is not out of 300 its out of 260 because there were 40 experimental questions that do not count towards our scores so the actual pass rate was around 60%. Which should make the public feel a bit safe...Good luck to everyone in all your future endeavors, i wish the best for all of you!!

Just got my result today but it's worth waiting. I passeddddddddddd.
