I'm not expecting anything for a week at the very least. They're probably swamped with all the new grads testing right now.

Man i had like 18 SATAs...it was insane...but i will say this was not the most difficult exam i had...that honr goes to the Comprehensive HESI we had to pass in order to graduate at the end of our last semester. NCLEX was a mix of really easy questions and really hard questions where i felt that HESI's questions were all tough questions through out. But we shall see for sure on Sat when my results are available..

Hopefully you are right since I didnt find Hesi too hard to be honest with you!!!!

You are going to be just fine, I took my Nclex on Wednesday 3, I had my license in the mail Saturday, as long as you answered lots of questions on the application and analysis level you will be just fine, I used the Kaplan 2010 strategies testing guide it is well worth the money.

I am sure waiting for the result is hard. Best of luck to you.
I also had to take hesi as the exit exam during the last semester. I've heard mixture of things about hesi vs nclex. I am not sure what is true about em. I am taking nCLEX on July 3.
What materials did you study?

I used Saunders NCLEX RN Review with CD, HESI NCLEX RN review w/CD, and Mosby's NCLEX RN review w/CD...i also read a book a firend gave me called Nursing made INSANELY easy. I think it's used for the sylvia rayfield review course. But i must say i used about 95% of my study time on Q&As with rationales...over and over and over again...average about 100 questions per day for about 19 days.
