NCLEX done!

Woweezowee! .. I just finished my test.. Took me about 2hrs.. It was...weird.. I did 75 questions. All the topics were familiar, but the options to select from were the killers... Excellent elimination skills REQUIRED! I got a bunch of SATA(was unsure about MOST of them lol) Lost count.. I got about 5 exhibit questions, I got zero calculations, I got 1 picture.. There were a few infection control (cohorting!!) and prioritizing, as well as some patient teaching.I did the PVT like immediately after leaving the test center at a Starbucks.. I was shaking like a jelly fish betting that I prolly failed.. I got the "good popup" (our records indicate you have scheduled... Please contact the BON) but now I know how everyone feels like its not true until they see the unofficial results!Overall, I think that I definitely over studied!... The test was pretty basic (not easy, but basic). I used Kaplan ( overall Qbank 63%, QT5,6,&7 66 each). I feel that Kaplan definitely helped, though it's a bit harder. That study guide that's been circulating on here??? MUST HAVE... Like seriously, I had one question that came directly from one of the pages, it's full of info that can help you answer questions correctly!I also used...*Saunders ( but not a lot).. Did the diagnostic and got an 81*Judith miller DVD's for content (I liked it a lot! Like having a private tutor that you can pause )* lippincott Q&A book ( nice questions that cover EVERYTHING)* Kaplan strategy book ( comparable to the website with obviously less questions)* and OFCOURSE that study guide!!! :)I just hope I can rely on the PVT!!! Eeeeeeeeek!! (runs crazily around the living room -_-)

Congratulations!!! Taking that test was nerve racking but we made it :) I took my test July 12th & didn't get my results till 2 days after. The PVT worked for me since I got the good popup, but I seriously do not remember what was on the test after I left the testing center. I became numb and blank.

Thank you guys!! And I wish you LOTS OF LUCK!!.. Just remain calm, don't dwell too much... On some questions, I couldn't really narrow it down, and ended up guessing.... Just remember, you don't need to get all the questions right!! ..know how to delegate, cohort, and normal values ( they save you in the exhibit questions) . :)... I'm sure you will do well, let us know how it goes!
