so i took my retake for nclex rn, today. i got 180++ questions i think.
for the first few questions (1-70) i was feeling good. my energy was really high and i know my brain really worked. no topic that i did not know of. then computer asked me for break, i took it. then sat.. after 100++ question, i was feeling down.. my brain was tired. i kept praying and praying that computer would shut off.. but i also prayed to make me patient to answer more and more.. after 150, THERE. i told myself. this is gonna be like the 1st one, this will take me 265. i answered and answered. i got alot of SATA's, prioritization, delegation, pharm, pictures (ecgs, rash).. and my most favorite MATH! (not!)
i felt good because i knew almost or more than half of it. what killed me was the math. (NCLEX REALLY DOES KNOW UR WEAKNESS) and they knew i suck at math so they flooded me with it. dobutamine.. dopamine.. everything!! i went in the testing center feeling confident because i studied. and i really prayed hard for it. and i know, whethet i pass or fail, i know this time i have a fight. i had the chance. except for the MATH (
172.. 175.. 178.. 180;.. (tired.. tired) and BOOOOM. the blue screen appeared. i was like. shox. what happened? (loading content)... and there NCLEX SURVEY QUESTIONS>
so i actually did not go upto 265. and im glad about it. coz my head really hurt that time. i cudnt take any longer.
but half of me.. wishes i did good. my mom picked me up. i was NOT feeling nervous like how felt the FIRST TIME. this time, i was calm. i knew i was well prepared. and if i failed, its bcoz of math. we had dinner... half of me knows i had a good chance of passing but i didnt wna think about it coz i dont wna be disappointed. we got home. i checked PVT, i got the "good pop up" that everybody's talking about. my hopes are really really UP. but knowing california, the process is slow.. so how would i be sure of that 'trick" i searched and searched. people say pvt works ANY state. anytime. its only been 4 hours since my exam. i hope it works. i cant believe i got the good pop up tho. but now, i just have to wait.. and continue praying. hoping tomorrow, or the next day. i will be an RN. or if ever PVT really works, then i hope the 'pop up' would not change for me!
