Hi there, I am still floating ona high cloud since I found out I passed. As soon as I saw it, I was balling my eyes out I thought I was going to pass out. Took it yesterday at 8am and was done in 3hrs 15 mins. I TOOK MY TIME. I used every trick in the book and even covered my answers with my dry-erase board. had no drug calculations and 2 select-all-apply Qs. When the computer shut off, i was like" NOOOOOOOOO give me more!!!"
I am so happy now I get to work in my dream job in L & D
Good luck to all still awaiting to take and thos awaiting to hear back.

Congrats, Sikidudu, RN!! Good luck on your new job! Yikes! I love working on L & D as well. Hope to hear good news from my BON this week too.:monkeydance::monkeydance::monkeydance:
by the way, this was my second time at boards. the 1st time, i had 77 q's and i had done kaplan. after i did not pass the 1st time, i went back to the drawing board and then listened to the online content review and kept doing q-bank q's. what helped as well was looking through saunders for visuals on anything from positioning to diff. pathologies. doing as many q's as possible helps. i did between 50-100 q's a day, no more as it was too much for me. i have a family, etc. good luck to you all.

Congratulations!
Can I ask what percentage grades you got on saunders and kaplan exams before your first and second time taking NCLEX?
Thanks!
Before my 1st round at boards, I had high 50s in my tests and only one 60%. But after that when I prepared more for the next round, I got my scores up in the high 60s and low 70s, that is what made a difference for me.
Thanks for your good wishes and best of luck.
