Today I sat for my state boards and it was the hardest test I have ever took in my whole nursing experience. I am very confident when it comes to my test taking and my knowledge, but today I am not going to lie I felt inadequate at some point during this test. Part of it was because the machine did not shut down at 85 questions and other parts I just felt overwhelmed I guess. I did a 190 questions. The computer shut off and I felt like the interrogation was over. I was mentally and emotionally drained. I came home and got on my laptop, of coorifice the first thing I do is the Pearson Vue trick and when the error message popped up. I breathed a sigh of relief cause all my highs and lows of nursing school, ATI, and Kaplan paid off in the end. I just needed to tell this story thanks for reading. If I can give any advice is when it keeps going pass 85 and that pit of despair starts to raise push it back down, stay focus, say a prayer, and continue to do your best.
