Good luck! :heartbeat
I actually am so emotionally drained I have not even gotten out of bed. I burst into tears when I saw my license number post on the azbon at 8am, and I took my nclex yesterday. Yeah I'd agree it was torture!!
I did the trick, of course I didn't believe in it. But it relieved some of the stress for like two minutes! lol
I recently passed with 75Q and a phenomenal number of SATA questions (wish I had tallied on my whiteboard, it felt like 30-40%). I was hopeful that I passed - but only because I had heard from so many successful candidates - that this feeling of doom and gloom was a GOOD sign. It is likely you performed well on the passing standard questions and received many questions which were above the passing standard. Remember the test is adaptive. I assure you when I left the testing center, I was pure adrenaline and confusion. I felt all those involved in creating and reviewing NCLEX questions and especially the creator of the CAT software were evil sadists. The "trick" worked for me, but I still burst into tears when I saw my license.
Good luck to you! I have a feeling you did just great.

Took NCLEX today at 2. I feel like I've been beat up, chewed up, and spit out! I had 76 questions and at least half were SATA. I'm am sooooo bad at those. I feel totally defeated and want to try the 'trick'. How can a person go into something sane and come out completely insane to where you want to know so bad there isn't anything you wouldn't do to know?
