More than half of my NCLEX PN was Select All That Apply!!!!!

Published

Today I took my NC!EX PN. I felt so ready, I graduated first with a 3.95. I always scored very high on ATI, I used all of my NCLEX prep tools this entire year. When I sat down to start my NCLEX I noticed that I was getting quite a few SATA. By the time I got to like 62 I realized I had way more SATA than anything. I had a few exhibits and ordered response and if anything quite a few priority. After the 85th question my screen blanked out! It felt like a noose tightened around my neck. I burst into tears and left as quickly as possible. I thought that if you got a question right they got harder. I contacted an instructor I had and she told me about the PVT. I did it and was not able to reregister however some people say on here it does not work. Can someone explain the deal with the select all that apply question. If I had gotten them right would they have moved on?

I haven't heard of anyone (even on here) saying the PVT didn't work accurately. If it didn't "work," as in it let them get to the CC page, it still works it just means they failed.

So I'm going to go ahead and tell you congratulations because if you got that and didn't pass you'd be the first one I've ever heard of.

I've heard that the better you are doing, the more SATA questions you get. I have no idea if it's true, but, maybe you just kicked its butt so hard it didn't know what to do! I'm sure you did great! Please let us know.
