Took nclex today with the use of hurst this time got 186 questions. Not sure what to think at this point. State of VA doesn't do the quick results got to wait 6 weeks for results. I am a basket case and need advice. Please.

Are you able to check your doh website to see if your license is active? I'm in a different state, but that's how I checked to see if I passed!

I took it a few hours ago and when I log in nothing is on there except my CNA license : some people say they don't update it until the following day

Took my test today too. For the fourth time. I took the nclex pn. First time I went to 205 failed, second time 164 failed. Third time 85 failed. This time I ran out of time at 192...... I really don't know what to think. I too minimized the time so I don't pay attention to it. I took my time and I paced myself I worked as if I was doing practice exams because it made me loosen up a bit. I took my break( something I didn't usually do). Whenever I felt myself getting stuck I used that dry erase board and just started writing down information that I had . That board was so full not a blank space lol..... IDK today I don't feel like I felt the other three times I guess, IDK what feels different I guess because I know this time around I did the best I could and I didn't doubt myself. I had a few moments where I felt like I was tripping n going off track but that's when I looked away from the screen and jotted down information. Like its funny I literally was trying to answer the question with the last 21 seconds left. I hope those last 8 questions don't hurt me. I had about 33 sata questions 2 exhibits, 2 calculations and a lot of priority and delegation, who would you see first and patient teaching and nurse is teaching a group of what would she include in teaching..... I'm not sure if that says much. But I hope n pray. I passed........ I'm in Ohio so I guess I have to wait a few days..... This wait is going to kill me. Lol..... Good luck to everyone..... We're going to get this 😍😍😁😁

Waiting is the hard part that should be illegal, all this stress.

Thanks so much, I don't know what to think I tell you this has been very stressful. I was an A/B student in nursing school and this test has taken the best of me that's for sure. I just want it to be over.

Did you try the PVT?

I have not tried the PVT trick due to people saying it's incorrect at times.

Try it, it's accurate. I tried it and most of my class did and it worked
