Nursing Students NCLEX

OMG i took the nclex today....it shut off at 85....I think I know I failed? Please tell me what the point of studying was, I even had a 3 day review course taught by some very intelligent people from university but somehow I still feel as though I failed the test. All of the questions seemed to be a big joke to me, I felt like I guessed most of the answers. I had a bunch of math questions which I kno I got right but omg I had so many select all that apply and even a few where I had to put the steps in order (for procedures I had never ever heard of). My school offered us ATI tests to take and study from and I always did great on those but wow they were easy compared to the NCLEX..... I feel like im gonna throw up :o:uhoh3:

AWESOME....Im so proud of us!!!! lol

So that when you get your results ... You can celebrate....:)

aviah,

Since you took the nclex and passed, Can you please tell me how long it takes for you take the nclex after graduation?? How long did it take for you to get your results???

I think i got my papers in the mail about 2 to 2 1/2 weeks after graduation. i paid for the actual nclex online so that was fast i got info back in like a day or two saying they got my money and that i could register to take the test.....i made my appt for the nclex at that time.....they give u a choice of days they have available to take the test......after i took the test i checked the pa state board website 48 hours later and saw that my name was on the list of people with licenses which meant I passed but my actual results wont come in the mail for 2 to 4 weeks....i hope this was helpful!!

Thanks Aviah!

I was very curious because our school tells us NOTHING!! I live in Havertown, PA and I graduate January 31st. I am very anxious to take the test, but Med-Surge seems like it is never ending! May I ask what study materials did you use? Our school gave us several review courses that we have to give up our paycheck for (They're trying to rob us for every penny we have). But, did you take review courses from , ATI, or ERI? or did you purchase guide books such as Saunders, Mosby's, etc.? Thank you very much for the info!!

During our whole time in school we would take practice exams on specialized topics i.e med surg, obstetrics, peds, etc from ATI. At the end we took a "final exam" given by ATI to see our probability of passing the NCLEX, most people scored very high...i actually was given a 98% chance of passing on my forst attempt and I did...I think ATI helps alot. During our last week of school before graduation, we had an intense 3-day review with which helped out a great deal.
