Best of luck to you! I know exactly how you are feeling as the 16th is my test date. Anxiety is quickly taking over. I just finished Kaplan test 7, am going to review a few concepts, then take tommorow off.

Good Luck to you!!!!!!!!!

Ok I am trying to stay positive and breathe because that was my advice to everyone who was getting ready to take their test, but it is sure hard to do it when it's you that is FREAKING OUT! anyway I guess I am as ready as I am going to be. I did the #7 test in the Qbank from Kaplan this am (I know I am not suppose to) and did well so here's hoping and praying that everything will go a-ok. I'll post when I am done. I AM GONIG TO PASS THIS STUPID TEST!!!!!!!DANGIT.....
good luck to anyone waiting for results or testing soon.

well I am back. I got 75 questions but I don't feel very good about it. Just reading the volume of check all that apply questions that everyone got, I only had 3. I also had 4 math questions, and one question in which you had to put a proceedure in order which was easy. lots of priority questios and a couple of questions about herbs (what is up with that) I never what pepermint oil and other herbs did??? anyway. I guess I just have to wait it out but I really believe that I failed...I just have a sinking feeling.

Deb,

Hang in there....NO ONE feels good when they walk out of taking NCLEX! Continue to think positive!!! You most likely did great!

Deb, I understand what you are going through! I took mine on Monday and believe I did not pass either. I shut off at 75 also and felt I was not ready for that. had lots of priority and about 4 or 5 select all that apply. I got only 1 pharmacology. The priority was so hard, there was never a clear cut answer, and I know I got some of the other questions wrong. Hang in there! But keep positive thoughts otherwise you will go insane like me!! - chh

thank you for all of the possitive comments. It is really hard to stay possitive when you feel like it's something you want so badly and you don't have any Idea how you did. After talking to a instructor she stated that she knew someone who passed with just receiving one select all that apply question so maybe there is hope. I just wish I didn't have to wait.

I have a feeling a lot of those select all that apply probably are part of the 15 they throw out. I know mine were really difficult and I know I did not get them right. But I was freaking out about them. And I was really tripping on all the priority! I just kept thinking, oh my gosh - I am not getting them right! I had no delegation either. I know what you mean about wanting something badly. You spend the last few years working your butt off and then it comes down to 75 or 265 questions that may or may not really touch on what you are truly capable of. But we must keep our chins up and try and stay busy! My husband suggested vacuuming! Yea, right, that's his job! ha!
