NCLEX result

Accio · Jul 10, 2008

OH my god, has anyone ever thought , What if I dont pass the NCLEX! Well I just took it on Monday and my entire test was on medications, I havent even heard of, the results of the test was that I failed. I coundnt believe this, I made it through nursing school and then I cant pass the NCLEX. I cried for a good 10minutes, not because I didnt pass but more because I already had a job that was to start on the 21st. Well I keep telling myself everything happens for a reasons however there is that little voice that says "whatever". I know that I can take it again and I will pass but is there any other encouragement anyone else wants to offer..... Thanks to all of u

Times that by 3 AND you have... me. I feel for you. I know you won't want to hear this, but life goes on, you'll pick up the pieces and get through it. I took mine for the 3rd time june 13... I cannot believe it still, but... I had lots of meds, and lots of SATA's... This bed board gives great support, so keep signing on. I am in FL, and I just sent off my fees to test out of state, just to keep moving foward. Don't know when I'll sit again, I just had to do something. GOOD LUCK!!!

i just found out an hour ago that i didn't pass as well.. i took a review course and i did 3000+ q's .. and come to find out i failed.. i had the feeling that i failed right after i took the exam.. i was very anxious about the exam that i even studied the night before.. even though i KNEWW that we are to relax.

i was anxious throughout the whole exam that it seemed like i forgot everything.. meds, side effects. i kept getting med questions.. and i had an anxiety attack that i had to take a break after 75 q's.. and then more meds.. but no med computation what so ever.. after the 90 something question it turned off.. i went home and looked up the last question . and i got it wrong.. cried my eyes out for the next 48 hours..

my friends and family supported me and re assured that it's not the end of the world, that they all know i was smart.. and i'm happy that they have my back and they didn't make me feel like such a failure.. i know i can do it the second time around.. i think now that i know what to expect. my anxiety wont get the best of me... i KNOW i knew the material...

let's move forward together.. well kick ass the second time around..yea??:chuckle

Thank you so much, my family supports me as well however it is so hard not to worry. I to studied over 3000 questions and did very well on them. I am sure my anxiety got the best of me as well. Thank you so much for the support and I will be there for you as well, you know I heard that the best nurses have taken the NCLEX more than once! Keep in touch.

Do't beat yourselves up, you guys are not alone. I had a lot of priority and alot of delegation, infection control meds and only 11 SATA's. The thing I messed up I think is the math(5Q's). They were difficult to me, and I studied math really well, and completed 3,000 questions, and Saunders from start to finish. But I am a re-taker and I know that it has a lower risk of passing, as I have heard, and been out of school for 4 years. However I refreshed and took at least 3 months of hard studying, if not, regular consistent studying questions for 1 year. So, I have to pick up the pieces, just waiting for my re-application letter....

We will continue supporting each other! :up:
