This is my second time taking the Nclex-RN and I had 180 questions today. The first time I felt confident that I had 75 but failed. This time I was far more prepared, but when I started getting over 20 medication questions, I felt like I had failed yet again. I had over 20 SATA, 2 med calculations, TONS of meds, infection control, handful of priority and delegation, and the last question was about adverse effects of a medication.
Has anyone had the same scenerio and passed with 180? I feel so discouraged right now. I have been at the library 5 days out of the week since the day I failed the first exam. I even did Kaplan Qbank and averaged 63%. I dont feel confident at all . Please send any replies and your PRAYERS!!!!!!!
Congrats!!!!! I took NCLEX on 7/1 as well and had 180 questions. I was completely shot after the test and thought I failed--not a good feeling:cry:. But alas I found out today that I PASSED too!! So I raise my glass to you and propose a toast--Congratulations to our achievements and may we never stop striving to be the best nurses that we and our patients expect! Cheers!
Congrats to you!!!!!!!!!!!! I know you must feel a million pds have been lifted off your shoulders. I too will be retaking the exam soon after not passing the 1st time with 75q. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have been studying the hurst reveiw book hard core. Congrats again!
Thanks everyone for the congrats! This is what I did to prepare myself for the next 45 days until I was able to retake the exam. Hopefully this will be of use to others:
1. Suzanne's 1st Tip
Do every single quiz at the end of each chapter of the Saunder's
Comprehensive Review NCLEX-RN Examination - 4th Edition. If I got
less than a 70%, I reviewed that specific chapter.
. Please send any replies and your PRAYERS!!!!!!!
