NCLEX

So I took my NCLEX today and I have never felt so stupid or sick in my life. I still feel sick. I did the PVT just now and got the "good" pop-up. It's a few hours later. Is this a reliable indicator? My anxiety is so high, lol. Thanks!

Reliable for 24 out of 24 of my class mates in June/July 2013. Including me.

I feel the same way, OP. I took it today and it was awful. I was convinced I failed after it shut off after 75. I got home and did PV and got the good pop up. I'm trying to be optimistic, but I was really not expecting the NCLEX to be that painful. Half my questions were SATA. I didn't get any medication calculation questions. It was very weird.

Well the PVT did work. I did the unofficial results - I passed! Whew! My Residency can now happen. Good luck to those taking it and congratulations to those who passed.

It's the Pearson Vue trick that you can do after you take the NCLEX. If yiu get the "good pop-up" then there is a 99. 999 percent chance you passed. You can find lots of info on it in this thread.

I know everyone is different but I did the Hurst live review and then when I got my ATT, I gave myself 3 weeks and I reviewed the Hurst video portion 2 times completely and the core content 1 last time and I also did their tests and completed various nclex questions daily. That was my plan.
