2nd time testing, 265q, almost 3 hours, and a good pop up...I think

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

So today I took the NCLEX-RN! I was scheduled for 12:30p and I arrived at 11:30a, they allowed me to begin at around 11:45a. I got all 265 questions, last test I believe I got 180. Anyway had mostly prioritization, delegation, and infection control questions, I got 4 or 5 ECG questions, no math, a lot of pharm (including herbal meds) and 2 or 3 drag and drop. As far as SATA I had quite a few but I didn't actually keep track.

Ok so I got to my car at around 3:20p and tried to do the trick, it kept saying "Ready for Delivery" so I pulled off and then drove to another parking lot down the street (idk why pretty sure my brain wasn't working) finally it said "Delivery Successful" & I tried to re-register and I got the "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled your exam..." pop up! I am scared to become too excited because I read that there is a 2nd scoring and people's good pop up was not accurate. I'm anxious to know how long I will have to wait since I tested on a Friday!

I hope that the trick works for you!!!! My brain won't be working after mine either!!

You PASSED!!!! Congrats, RN! Pearson Vue claims that you have to wait 48 business hours (not counting the day of your test) to get the quick results. This is usually not true as most people are able to get their quick results within 48 hours regardless of weekends or holidays. I have done extensive research on the PVT and have found that it IS for the most part VERY accurate. Go celebrate!!!:up:

What did you do the 2nd time around that you think helped you compared to the 1st time taking the NCLEX. I took it a few weeks back and failed at 260. Now I was seriously discouraged and a mess for days. I have not rescheduled my test date for the 2nd time. I am scared to re-test and thinking about what could happen scares me to. I did a Kaplan live review and did all the questions. I guess honestly for me that did not work.

You passed! Congrats!:yes:

congrats RN!!!!!!!

Congrats to you, RN

Thanks everyone! & @Tas1987 I think the first time I didn't take things as seriously as I should've, I graduated and I got "ok" scores using ATI but I didn't do anythibg extra. 2nd time I really studied, redid ATI, and read the 35 pg study guide a couple of times, I read this the day before and even the day of my test. I also read and did the practice test from the Kaplan Strategies book. I honestly wish I would've had more time to use both my PDA book and the yellow Saunders book, I probably would've passed with less questions:)

Also ***update*** I got my quick results today....PASS!!!! Thanks to everyone on this site that helped me!!!

Congrats! I took it on 7/19 and terrified to check tomorrow. Been getting good pop up since right after exam but still can't sleep.

I was so terrified today to check my friend had to do it for me lol!! I'm sure you passed so CONGRATS to you too!!!
