I haven't stopped crying and I'm so scared to check! Last 3 times I failed I did the trick and it's been bad news this times I'm just horrified.. I don't wanna go through it again... I just don't know what to make out of my exam. It was like mix signals.. And just **** off at 103-105 one of them...

I felt the same way, I didn't want to check because I could not say I failed if I didn't look.

How about if you check to put US out of our misery? :-)

Crossing my fingers for you.

I still haven't check... I felt like I needed to take the day off bc iv been balling my eyes off. I feel sick to my stomach. It's like when I was taking the exam I got so many MIXX questions. Back to back SATA and I was scared I was missing them.. And QUESTION... Did y'all get any " as a nurse what would you teach your staff".... type questions?!?

I need to do the trick but in my heart I'm so 50-50.. Like my computer shut off at a random number like 103 or 105 don't even know bc I was that anxious during my test.

How many questions did you get?! And how did u exactly feel when u walked out. Did u kind if feel like the questions were easy level questions? I don't know why but I felt like mine were and that scared me

@FloridaRN I can sympathize with how you feel... Almost 100%. I also had about the same amount of questions, some "easy" questions which I thought I totally bombed, plenty SATA and a few EKG strips. I had a terrible headache during the exam and just felt absolutely terrible on the drive back home. I couldn't even eat when I got back home or cry lol and crawled into bed for the rest of the night. Anxiety woke me up at 7 am the next morning...tried to keep calm until I got the nerve to check my BON and sure enough I was a nurse. Did PVT after the fact and got the good pop up. At this point it's you passed or you didn't. Checking the PVT now, tomorrow or a few days from the now and the result will be the same. Gather yourself and JUST DO IT :), we will support you either way.

Yes just do it, it's like tearing off a band aid. This way at least you will know. I will pray you get the good pop up

Wow! Thank u so much for that... U made me a little happy... I mean today just has been rough. Cried so much that my eyes r swollen. It's like my family is like WHY R U CRYING SO MUCH without checking. But it's like the way I felt. I haven't had the nerves to check.. I just wanted to sleep it off today. And just try tomm. But was just worried.. Bc iv never heard of those type of questions where they say " when educating ur staff what would you emphasize" ..... I got so many of those that I didn't know if that was considered priority of if it was a easy level....after reading what u just wrote makes me feel a lol hopeful. I have tested 3 times and I failed all 3 and it's just a nightmare embedded in my head.

I felt like some of my questions were super simple and that worried me. At two hours I was on question 70 and the computer offered me a break. I took it just to have a chance to stretch and get a drink of water, then went right back to it and the computer shut off at 75. I wanted to throw up. I sat in my car with my phone and tried to check the Pearson Vue site for results but kept getting the "wrong password" message. I drove straight home, sick to my stomach, walked in the door and went straight to the computer. I had to reset my password and it was all adding up and making me feel even worse. I went ahead and did the trick because I was making myself sick with worry. I passed. :)

But I still doubted the pop up like everyone else does. 36 hours after I took the test it showed up on the DOPL (Department of Professional License). I still have that page on my phone and I made everyone look at it. :)

Put yourself at ease and check it. Or have someone check it for you.

Still crossing my fingers.
