I took my exam on August 25th at 3 pm. My instructor had told us that if we came out of the exam feeling like we failed then we probably passed. When My computer shut off at 85 I so oh know I know I did not pass because I don't feel like I failed. I know crazy. Well I left and came home and did the PRV trick and got the pop up. Probably checked it 15 times in those 48hrs. Well came home from my new job today and got my quick results and I passed. I cried, even though I didn't cry after the test. So that goes to show you just because you don't have a negative feeling after the test it does not mean you failed. I had about 25-30 SATA's. My third question was an SATA, I was like these are the questions I want, i had lots of priority, infection control and was thinking god for the infection control mneumonics on the random fact throwing sticky, patient teaching, which patient to see first, about 12 pharm and 2 math which were pretty straight forward. I am glad its over and now I can relax. Thanks to all those that posted tips, sent me study aids and prayed for me.
I used the Saunder's 3rd edition, part of suzannes plan, mosbys illustrated pn, ATI, and NCLEX 3000. I probably did about 3000 questions all together and took the Sylvia Rayfield review through school using the Nursing made insanley easy book, which has lots of pictures and mneumonics to help you out. Well good luck to all of those testing soon and to those who are waiting for results. Just remember go into the test with confidence and do NOT study the day before the test and get a good nite sleep and eat a good breakfast to feed your brain. Sorry this post is so long but I thought some of this may help others that are planning to take the NCLEX. :wink2:
