NCLEX RN today. I must be really dumb.

Published

I'm reading about everybody passing at 75. Well, I felt really confident when I went in to test today. I had done so well with the books and study questions and CD's including Saunders. Yeah, just ask me about an ABG or calculation question, or most anything except maybe peds, I could tell you.

I was so dumb I couldn't find the # of questions when the computer shut off. It shut off after 4 hours. I think I got some of the questions right but so many seemed liked "who the ?X!## put these questions in here?"

After about 3-1/2 hours I was just getting thoroughly irritated and just wanted the D........... computer to shut off. Why was it taking so long with so many questions. I"M NOT STUPID! I mean I still did my best.

I just can't believe so many of these questions seemed not knowledge based, (I did see some though). Of course, I think I failed.

They were just nothing like all the reviews questions on the CD's.

What do you all think?

Good luck to all of you still waiting, and congrats to those who have passed!! I graduated on May 12th, got my ATT on Monday, May 23, and scheduled my NCLEX for June 13th (first date available). I am just practicing questions with Saunders and Mosby CAT (mostly CAT) every day. Hope I do as well as all of you!

Holli, GN
