Essence,
I doubt that you are anything remotely like "a loser", not at all.
In my ATI NCLEX pamplet it even addressed these very COMMON thoughts..."even if most people in your life have been encouraging, there may be a haunting voice that tells you that you are not worthy, you are a loser or you will never be a nurse. In times of extreme stress it is hard to ignore that voice...."
So, I still am not sure how I did and I even felt pretty good afterwards but, this is indeed "a time of stress" so our worst thoughts and negative speak are going to taunt us.
This waiting is not the most pleasant part of the experience, that is for sure!
Gen-feeling it too

Hi everyone,
I took the NCLEX-RN today and I got all 265 q. I got everything in the books. I had a lot of peds, and OB. I had psych, spinal injuries, herbs, too many meds to count 2 med cal., cancer, lots of who would you see first who would you discharge first and a couple disater and alot of infection,and about 6 all that apply. The shocker was I had about or 4 religion questions. It would be a meracle if I passed that damn test. I knew it would be difficult but I was not expecting that. You name it I got.
Do you think that this means anything? I am so upset and depressed. The thoguht of not passing and having to pick up another book is too much to even consider.
It seemd like the more questions I got the more my neurons stopped firing. My body and mind is depleted
of its ATP and I feel like drinking myself into a stupor until tomorrow.

I took the test today. Got a lot of priority and med questions. Got only one math question and 2 select all that apply and i answered 193 or around that. I am just hoping i passed. I felt like a complete idiot when i finished.

i know exactly how you feel. i had between 145-160 questions and i felt like a complete failure. when it didn't turn off at 75, i literally thought i was going to die! however, i survived it and ended up passing. it doesn't really matter how many questions you get, so don't feel bad. it's actually a good sign because the computer was still keeping you in the game. so i'm pretty sure you passed the mininum competency. it was a tough battle for people like us, because we had to suffer through the test longer, but it's over and done with! i wish all of you you nothing but good results!!!!!! good luck!

I took the exam this morning ~ even though it shut off after 75 I am not feeling very confident. Part of me wanted more questions because I felt like I had already gotten so many wrong.....Remember the number doesn't matter....soon the waiting will be over, and I hope we all find that we passed.
