OMG Freaking Out, NCLEX Yesterday

Nursing Students NCLEX

Ok I took the NCLEX yesterday and I am freaking out today. I really really think I failed. Here's what happened. I was a good student in school and no one will expect me to fail but I really honestly think I did.

I got some basic questions at the beginning that I know I got wrong. I got a basic calculation question, which has to be a low level question. I missed stupid questions that I shouldn't have, I got a few priority questions, i feel ok about, no delegation! I got tons of meds and pharm is my weakest area, I know I missed them all. I got 3-4 select all that apply. I only got 75 questions. Ok, I know I wasn't doing good, but I must have really bombed it for it to shut off at 75. I hate this waiting and I am totally freaking out, I want to go back to yesterday to prove that I am competent.

Keep in mind that both passers and failers get ~50% correct and 50% wrong on the NCLEX. Also remember that level of difficulty depends on more factors than the question type. We just can't predict a pass/fail result based on someone's description of their own exam.

Hang in there! Don't give up yet!

HI There,

Thanks guys, I just wanted to let you know that I actually passed. I cannot believe it, but I did. I guess that goes to show you the NCLEX is truly unpredictable.
