Just took NCLEX- stressed to the max!!!

:eek:I just took my NCLEX-RN exam and have never felt worse It shut off after 75 questions. I guessed on most of the questions. There were A LOT of select all that apply questions, drugs I have never heard of, and a few diseases/disorders that I have never heard of. I feel like all of my studying was a complete waste of time and my NCLEX review course was too! Nothing I studied for was on the exam. There was no math on it either, I am good at math!!! I feel like the test did NOTHING to prove that I am going to make a good nurse. I was doing so well on the practice questions, I went in with no doubt in my mind that I'd pass...I came out practically crying, and balled the whole way home. The next two days are going to kill me until I find out.

I feel horrible.

I just got home a couple of hours ago from taking mine, as well. I think it is normal to feel like you failed. They told us that in the review course I took, that the vast majority of NCLEX test takers feel like he** when they get done. I could have written your post. 75 questions, lots of SATA, lots of questions I feel like I just didn't know, and NO math questions. It is haunting me about the math questions - how can it determine anything about my ability (or inability) without some math questions? Eyagh!

I felt awful after I got done testing too. Good luck!

I took mine this morning and felt the same way. Tons and tons of SATA, no math, a few pharm, lots of infection control, etc. I was so full of anxiety I could barely drive home! I did the PVT when I got home and got the good pop up, so maybe you sould do that to ease your mind a bit? I was SURE I bombed it and according to the PVT that is not the case (and I sure hope it's right!), so maybe that's the case with you as well? GOOD LUCK!
