So tomorrow is THE DAY! Aug 22nd, at 8am..I will be taking the test for the third time I honestly feel a little nervous this time compared to the last time I took the tests. Maybe because I felt confident before and it didn't work out so I might as well feel nervous this time :chuckle I've been going over and over the Kaplan CD Software because I've already spent about a thousand bucks for Kaplan review class along time ago so I might as well take advantage of all the materials I already have and go over them as much as I can. I don't understand why I feel a little nervous when I'm doing above 70% on the Kaplan CD. Anyway I can't wait to go back in there again and give it another try. Wish me luck guys

Oh another poster here named "trustar" is also taking his/her test tomorrow same time as me. I'll be praying for you as well! Goodluck!

Thank you for the prayers!At 8:39 I was taking lots of deep breaths before answering the next question :D The computer shut down at 75questions. This is totally new to me since I took 265 on my first exam, then 261 (I ran out of time) on my second test, then now just 75! Of course I wouldn't know whether I passed or failed yet but I'm just relieved that I didn't have to sit there for 6 hours unlike before:chuckle

Okay now I'm starting to feel horrible...I try to not worry about it and just wait for the result but I can't help but think about the questions that I had no clue about :sniff: I had 3 questions that are select all that apply and no meds calculation. I had mostly prioritization, delegation, who patients should share room with, and rest I have no clue. Oh well, I just have to wait. Now time to do MAJOR cleaning around the house :chuckle

I'm in California so we don't have quick result. We can only check the BON website and hope we see our name there. I'm getting sick of waiting :sniff:

Oh boy that is hard! Im thinking that 75 was a good sign. I know numbers don't really mean anything--but we're thinking positive! Right?? I can only hope that I don't go all the way to 265 again. But I hear that chances are pretty high that I will.

We all just want to pass--thats all. And get on with our chosen careers.
