hey guys - i took the nclex yesterday and now i am freaking out. here is my hx: i graduated last dec, and all my teachers said to take the test early - there was a better chance for me to pass. so i studied for hours on end since graduation. and plus, ok, i am an excellent student. i thought that all my studying was just going to be review (although throughout my "review" i was like, "i studied that before????). but i went into it feeling blah, but confident enough. i took the test yesterday and it passed 75, then 100, then 150... and i couldn't believe it...oh my goodness - it went all the way to 265! now i am freaking out. i was sure on half of them, and the other half of those questions i didn't know. and honestly guys, i studied like 5,000 questions from various books/cd roms/etc. i don't know how much more i could've done. please give me some positive feedback. i am feeling really down and lost and just really sad right now. i am trying to relax and forget about it but i really can't stop crying. i mean, does it mean i failed? am i one of those that "do well in school but fail the nclex???" thanks for reading and i wish you all the best....
