i just got home from NCLEX torture test.. it stopped at 75 .. i had 6 all that apply , a lot of meds i didn't know and tons of priority and peds ( my weakness) .. i am sure i will be a LPN awhile ( much while ) longer.. i had no idea what these meds were and never heard of them before... and never want to again... i am sick to my stomach... i just don't feel i passed... i guessed alot .. the guy next to me got 110 questions he said and it shut off.. we left at the same time... well it's in Gods hands now.. i didn't sleep a wink last night not for a minute... i am glad i didn't tell anyone at work i was taking it... my prayers are with you all... :uhoh3:

Kittykat, Kittykat,

Don't do that. :) Go for a walk, take in fresh air, remember, (as I am trying to) the worst case scenario means that we would be re-taking this thing in three months.

Hang in there!!

It will be okay. I bet that you passed....keep reading here all of the posts here with people who were convinced they failed only to find that they passed. Everyone feels like they failed....Try to realx and distract yourself. You will soon find out that you're an RN. Hang in there.

Nclex RN today........it was crazy and shut off at 75....I just felt I needed to go on...I am in a daze and told my daugther that I just want to curl up into a ball somewhere......:uhoh21:

My test sounds much like your's, priority, around 6 all that apply, teaching, and some meds I had no clue what they were. I was positive I had failed it. I was miserable. I was scared to check the quick results, because I didn't want to face my failure. I was totally surprise to discover that I passed! So hang in there. I am hearing that most people walk away feeling that they failed it, but didn't. You will be in my prayers!

So I was so nervous tonight I decided to go to the testing center and check it out (its in my city)....that made me feel a little better...but now I don't want to sleep....I keep thinking of all of the things I DONT know...(how long are the little/big boxes on ECG graph again?, etc)...Then I read read all of your posts, and wonder if I should even bother looking at my notes again?

Ok, I test in 9.75 hours...supposed to be there 1/2 hr. early...I'll probably go even earlier, as I've heard they let you start early.

Thanks to everyone here for posting. It's been a great source of support.

Good luck to all of us this week.

a lot of meds i didn't know.. i had no idea what these meds were and never heard of them before...

Drugs on NCLEX are usually very common drugs like Insulin, IV Lopressor, Dopamine. Drugs that are commonly involved in errors. Strange you've never heard of the drugs on the test before. I know they include 15 experimental questions in each test. Perhaps these were the drug questions you got and don't count anyway. Let us know. Good Luck.
