Hey everyone,

I am writing my exam for the second time and was wondering if anyone can give me any tips?

I was pretty discouraged after I failed the first time as I do not think the exam was hard at all.. So not too sure where to go now.

Is the "get all or fail" policy for the essential questions still in effect?

Unfortunately, it is still very much in effect. Otherwise, I and several other people here really don't see a good reason to even remotely fail the test at all.

I took the test today at misnet. Finished the test in 2.5 hrs including review of the items. I was really nervous at first as the questions that kept coming out were unfamiliar to me. But as the test progressed, I felt hope of passing the test. I don't remember who posted here stating that if you are a practicing nurse, the test should be easy. Calculations were quite elementary, and some objective type questions,which for sure are familiar to all of us.Questions regarding UK setting were also given but not that much. But I guess the critical questions were pretty obvious, they focus on patient and public safety.

I only read on the test blueprint provided by NMC and focused on the critical questions.

The result===>>PASS

Regarding agencies, I already contacted CTN but did not start with them yet. A colleague of mine is suggesting omanfil (she is actually flying to the UK this friday,omanfil was her agency)... I would love to go with petrick on the 27th but not yet sure with my schedule, will try if I can take an off on that day. I've been also having conversation with someone in London who is a friend of my friend but did not give me details yet.

BTW, Congratulations to all that passed and good luck to those who are taking very soon.

Congratulations to everyone who passed the exam!

Thank you very much for the input!

@Jaysfordays, when are you gonna sit for your second attempt? I hope you'll update us whether you passed or failed.

My sister and I have been lurking on this thread for some time. She just took the exam a couple of hours ago and failed. She said nothing from the Code nor the Royal Marsden came out. She got mostly technical questions that she even had to double check if they gave her the correct exam.

I didn't want to believe it but considering everyone's getting different test questions, I think I'm with you on thinking that NMC just wants our money. So my sis will just book for the second attempt and we'll see how it goes.

Also interested to know if anyone has failed the exam on their second attempt. I hope nobody has but please advise, guys. Thanks.

hi @shiobz, which country are you in? I also took my CBT exam this morning, but I still don't have the results yet. I took it at Pearson Vue in Makati. May I ask, how long does it take for the results to "usually" come out?

They did say the results come in within 48 hours.

I got mine after 2 hours. >_

Did you take the exam at Pearson veu as well? Yeah I was kinda hoping for that to happen to me as well but alas, I think I will have to wait a bit longer, I'm kinda excited actually :S
