Took NCLEX on Saturday, June 7th.

I wasn't feeling too great about it. I took it out of town (in Asheville, NC) and spent the night before with my best friend who lives there. Well, there were 4 kids at her house that night...4 very hyper, unsleepy kids in a tiny, two bedroom house. I ended up with only 5 hours sleep.

I started at 10:00 am, and I felt like I knew absolutely nothing...like it was all guesswork. By question 50, I already needed a break, so I decided to take one even though it wasn't the scheduled one. The front desk guy took one look at me and just said, "There's a coffee shop on the first floor" :chuckle

The coffee and the mental break did wonders. I felt ever so much better for the last 25 questions before it shut off on me. However, I still left feeling as if I'd failed...although part of me realized that the hardness of the questions could be a good sign.

So, anyway...found out today that I passed

Congrats to all the others who've passed recently, and good luck to those about to take your test! My advice? If you need a break, take it...whether or not it's scheduled.
