apparently, ive been waiting for other people to start a support group for may nclex takers.....but no....so here i am.....
im taking my nclex on the 7th of may...hopefully, i pass this time. im tired of living a non-RN life......
Hi All,
I took mine on Saturday May 17th, I had a little bit of everything...peds, psych, med surg, 1 ob question, I had lots of meds (that I had never heard of), 10+ priority, 10+ Safety (correct safety precautions to use with particular disease/infection, who would you put with this patient), 3 math (easy! know mcg/kg/min flow rates and BSA) and get this....23 SATA!!! It was rough!! It took me over 2 hours to take 75 questions...the SATA were brutal! One SATA asked me what meds given for a particular disease would I question (not common diseases or meds) Yikes!
I left with a huge knot in my stomach and thought I had failed when it shut off at 75. I found out I passed on Tuesday morning and I could not believe it. I didn't believe everyone when they told me I would feel like I failed when I left. I have never failed any exam, so it felt horrible! But yes you do feel like you failed. No matter how prepared you are, especially with that many SATA! I used Kaplan Qbank and Saunders 3rd edition to prepare for the questions and I felt that they were very similar to Kaplan.
Good luck to all of you who are taking it soon!! You can do it!!

Ca will not issue you a license without a SSN, You have 3 years to provide them with a SSN otherwise they will delete your file. Much has been written in the International forum regarding this. All you will receive is a letter stating you passed NCLEX and meet licensure requirements
