Took the NCLEX Today - 75 Q's, 21 SATA

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Well today was finally the big day. Wanted to start a thread if anyone had any questions regarding the NCLEX or Nursing school.

I thought the exam was super weird. Questions totally picked at random with no rhyme or reason. some peds, maternity, delegation, priority, 1 med, no math, lots of safety and infection control.

I still feel like UWORLD has the best nursing questions i've ever seen and would absolutely recommend using uworld to take the nclex (same feel, really good rationales and questions, gets you ready)

How I studied for the exam was to do around 50 questions a day for about 3 weeks from u world. In the last few days I started to do 75 questions and made sure I did all the leadership and delegation questions. I'd say I did about 1000 questions in all.

I didn't do any other studying, I really just did questions. My feeling is that if you were in a hard enough program which I was, then you should do just questions and you should be fine.

I got the good pop up but i'm still not going to celebrate until the 48 hours pass and I see for sure. Walking out of the exam I felt like I did just okay and that I didn't know much of the material at all. A lot of guesses and "well this looks right". I finished in about an about 70 minutes.

I just kept telling myself that for me to fail in 75 would mean that I did super poorly and then I remembered I had a bunch of higher level type questions and I dunno... Maybe I passed.. We'll see
