passing NCLEX-PN

Published

I recently took the NCLEX-PN on Aug.20 and found out i passed on Aug.22. Yay!!! I had the minimum of 85 questions and I finished in under an hour. I felt really bummed out b/c I did not feel that i did my best. I had a lot of SATA questions, which i did not think i was doing well on. I studied ATI for about 2 weeks and i thought it helped me tremendously on how to answer SATA questions and priority questions. I wish all of you good luck with your future test and remember to slow down, breathe, and focus on what is being asked!!!

I hopefully will be taking the PN exam sometime soon. I am in an RN program now and am eligible to take the PN exam. I want to take it and get some experience and maybe a foot in the door somewhere after I take my NCLEX-RN. If I didn't have to work while I was in school I wouldn't lol :)

Congrats, ksmith9! I too took my PN test just recently and found out two days later I passed. :D I also felt I had failed epically. 85 questions and I was sure I was answering most of them wrong. But they were hard - which is a good thing. I must have been answering right at one point, right? I hope and wish you the best of luck in your future education and career endeavors :)
