Nclex was awful

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

So I took the nclex at 8 am. I was using U world for the past 3 weeks, took the self assessment on saturday and got a high chance of passing. When I started U world, I thought the questions were really hard!, but i got better at it. During the Nclex I was praying for the same questions from Uworld. I took 75 questions, and ended with a sata. about halfway through the test, I felt like it got a little easier, which is opposite of what most people say. I have no idea whether I passed or not, except I did do the PVT and got the good pop up. I just want to say it was the worst test I have ever taken. The questions seemed real vague. not a clear cut test that i'm use to. It was very random. So lets just hope I passed, cus I dont feel like I did.

Thank you so much for your encouragement these last few days!

You are very welcome. :)

Oh my God, praise the Lord, I passed!!! I just got my results in the mail!

Don't feel discouraged. There is a very high probability you passed. Waiting is so hard and stressful. When are you able to get your results?

They said 48hrs but others took weeks to get their results. I will check my mail again later if they have sent me the results. I kept checking my breeze account but all I can see is a Registered Nurse - RN file number :( i hope that doesnt mean i failed :((

I just checked right now, nothing. I only saw my VN license.. i guess this is it :(

When people say random and vague, what do you all mean? Is it like community, fundamentals stuff? Or how are the questions asked differently from U-World? How are the questions worded that are different from what we have ever seen before?

I took my Nclex today and I have to agree with everything you all have said. It was the hardest and weirdest exam I have ever taken. I got the first question right I know for a fact, but then it was downhill after that. It seems like I would spend several minutes on each question before I went to the next one. I ended up only answering 75 questions, but it took me a little over 2 hours to do it. I had 17 SATA and 2 drag and drop. My last question was a SATA, so I thought no way it is going to cut off. After I got done, I would rack my brain about questions and I started thinking of all the ones I got wrong. I felt I knew nothing while taking it, and I know I made a stupid error on an easy preeclampsia question. There were drugs and diseases on there I had no clue about and had never heard of, so all you can do is guess. It is kind of frustrating the way the test is done. Like there isn't a good mix of questions IMO. I had no delegation questions but did have several what would you do first or who would you see first.

I feel absolutely terrible. I am depressed, my head hurts, and I am tired. LOL. I will find out in the morning when I look up my name on my BON if I have passed. I don't have a good feeling, but it appears a lot of people don't when coming out of the Nclex. I just pray I did enough to pass.

I felt the questions were a lot different than I was used to. I didn't use Uworld, though. The majority of them were simple one maybe two sentence questions. Then the answers were elaborate and hard to narrow down to two by the way they were worded. It was the weirdest and hardest exam I have ever taken. I don't know if it I was anxious and trying to answer every one like it was my last question that I ended up making stupid mistakes or if that is the way the Nclex is supposed to make you feel but I feel terrible tonight. I am hoping for the best.
