Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

My daughter just took the NCLEX and is in extreme frustration. She has done extremely well in school and practiced on UWORLD. she feels that most of the questions had nothing to do with what she studied at school or on UWORLD combined. We'll find out tomorrow I guess

Thank you for your support

Actually, the stress started when the envelope arrived in the mail. My exam span over 2 days, 4 sections of questions.

It's awful what you have to go through to become a nurse. I just never stopped praying

Specializes in ED, med-surg, peri op.
In the "olden days" (1978) we had to wait 6-8 weeks for our results. Talk about stressful!

Sounds like New Zealand!

Our exam is only done 3 times a year. All new grads take it at the exact same time over the whole country. Two 90 questions exams, in the same day, and everyone has the same questions all done on paper. Then it takes 4 weeks to get results, which everyone gets at 9am the same day. A list of peoples individual numbers are posted of those who passed, if you can't find your allocated number then you failed.

So envy you guys choosing your exam date and only waiting 24 hours. My exam is this November, exactly 10 days after my final clinical. Results are scheduled for just before Xmas. Eeeep.
