Just took the NCLEX for the first time!!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Welllllll I just got back from taking the NCLEX for the first time, and I really have NO idea what to think. I'm so scared of failing. :o I had a lot of SATA, priority, delegation, NO math, a couple OB, a lot of infection control...and 75 questions. And the scary part is I finished in LESS than an hour. Now I'm worrying about did I go too fast or what?? I just felt like either I know it or I don't. And surprisingly, I knew all but one of the meds they threw at me (which meds are my weak point). My computer shut off at 75 (I was praying for less than 200 questions), and I just had NO idea what to think. I'm SO scared...waiting to try the Pearson Vue "trick," but it's still "waiting for delivery."

Another girl in my class tested the same time and had 75 questions and finished around when I did, but she said she only had TWO SATA and a couple math questions that she think she got wrong. Did anyone else test today that would like to share some anxiety?? :uhoh3:

And to think, I prepared myself for 265 questions with a TON of snacks and a drink...

i tested this morning~ and finished 77 questions in an hour! and just like you now im thinking that maybe i should of took my time. my classmate took 2.5 hours for 75 questions and just found out that she passed today. which makes me more nervous. Did u feel like u were guessing on every question too? ahhh...i'm so stressed! :crying2:

Well I had a general idea for MOST of them. But for the SATA, I was SO mad, because I would literally have ONE that I was unsure of on all of them. And I got a similar question twice, so I think I may have missed it the first time. Have you tried the Pearson Vue trick yet? I think I will feel a little better once I can.

I'm going to do it just because it will give me peace of mind, and I think I'll go crazy waiting for 2 days if I don't. But I know I'll be scared to try it once I see "delivery successful."

Okay...Took mine today 110 questions in 1.5 hours or a little less. I know I missed the last two. I know I failed...However "Trick" says I passed. I will know for sure through our board (hopefully tomorrow AM). I will surely post.

Only 1 math (think I got it right). Lots of meds...did NOT KNOW ANY..... ;-(. I have been crying since 0930 this morning.

I haven't tried it yet, because mine is still waiting for delivery. ScaredTracey, as far as I know, you passed! I think the trick has worked for everyone so far that posted in the Pearsonvue Trick board! I hope the trick gives you some peace of mind.

I just tried the Pearson Vue trick, and I got the pop-up!! :hpygrp: My heart was beating fast the WHOLE time. I'm excited, but I know that this trick isn't 100% :uhoh21:, so I'll have to wait to see my name on the BON. At least I have some peace of mind for the next 2 days!
