NCLEX Fail

Published

So, took the nclex-rn, it shut off at about 95 questions, 12 SATA, whole bunch of random drugs I had never heard of. Really narrow field of testing.. lot of Alzheimer's questions for some reason. It really didn't test much of a width of knowledge. It ended on a SATA question which I thought was unusual.

The PVT brings me to credit card info.. so I assume I failed unless anyone has had anything otherwise happen?

If I failed, do I get any info on say.. if I was close or not to passing? Does getting ~95 questions instead of 75 say anything to anyone here? Will there be some detailed info on how I did, if so how long until that comes?

Is waiting for the unofficial 48 hour results sufficient wait before paying again and rescheduling?

I am so sorry to hear =(, usually you get a letter then you pay again. what study tools did you use to prep for this exam?

Hurst online video series, and Saunders Question software were the major ones.. I just feel like I got a poor batch of questions to test my knowledge. 2-3 hours/day for a little more than a month. After taking the test from the questions I had the Hurst videos seemed quite useless - they do not go in depth enough to answer NCLEX questions.

So sorry to hear that. I took NCLEX Wednesday for the 2nd time & failed. I feel that Hurst was a waste of $300

Im so sorry. I will keep my fingers crossed that you are the exception to the PVT trick. Did it say "delivery successful" before you tried it? If you get the quick results and it says "fail" I would think that is sufficient enough to pay for your reschedule. You will get a report on your strengths and weaknesses to help you study for next time.

sorry to hear that. Take few days off to rest and recuperate. Then get right back on track again with the study. I failed mine twice but just passed May 14th on 3rd attempt. You can do it. The first 2 attempts, I got the CC page. The 3rd, I got the GPU. The 2nd time I got the CC page, I didn't even bother to do the quick results cause I knew I failed. I say register ASAP when the money becomes available. Good luck to you.
