I am taking the NCLEX-RN in two days and I am freaking out. I have been using Saunders, Kaplan Question Trainer and the Mosby CAT.
Mosby CAT tells me that I have a 99% chance of passing but... I don't know.
On the Kaplan Question trainer I have been getting about 65%-69% and Saunders I've pretty much stayed at about 75%.
What do you think my chances for passing are? I have been doing questions and reviewing rationales for right and wrong answers.
I know they say not to study the day before the test but I still have to do the last Kaplan exam and I have a pretty good short term memory so I study for tests better the day before and I just want to brush up on some disease processes, lab values, and medications.
Also, what medications does everyone recommend that I know? Should I know the drug classifications and broad knowledge or are there certain meds that I need to know specifically?
Also any words of encouragement will be greatly appreciated. I have been doing this on my own, since I can take it one semester early in my program and it seems like I am the only one in my program to have made the choice to take it early. I haven't had anyone to commiserate with. I know I can do this, but it would be nice to hear from you guys!
Oh my gosh you sat there for all 265 questions? I had to eat lunch! LOL....I even finished before the time ran out. My friend told me that most of the people she knows was able to check that night for the results. I will be checking tonight and tomorrow morning. Heck I will keep checking until it gives me my results. I'm starting to freak out! aCCCKKCKCKCKCKCK!!!
My friend found out she passed today. She took it saturday and got 86 questions.
Good luck to you and let's hope we both passed!
Yup, I sat for the entire test, it took me like 3.5 hours to finish. Today's test, it took me a little bit less than 2 hrs. I regret that I didn't take my time today. I don't know what I was thinking. I had checked the BON website over and over and still couldn't find my name. I hope I will see my name tomorrow first thing in the morning. If not, I will be very depressed.
I am freaking out too. Good luck to you and I will keep my fingers crossed for you too.
Well I took my NCLEX today. I got 75 questions. It was exactly what I expected it to be. I still felt like I guessed through half the questions (I feel like that when I take a Kaplan test). We'll see.. Thanks for all the support!!!!
