HUTTCHAND

Hi there! I took the NCLEX last Monday and was absolutely convinced I had failed. I have been trying to sort out my paperwork from England for 18months and eventually given an ATT. I was at my wits end. I have been a nurse for 18 years but have not studied hard for a long time. I found the NCSBN website really good. I paid to be on their test site for 20 days before the test. Everyday I did about 100 questions, looking up Americanisms and different drugs. The test was nothing like I had expected as a lot of it was priority care. ie: You have one private bed on the ward and 4 patients awaiting admission. Who would you give the private room to. 1/ HIV patient 2/ patient with Hep B 3/ neutropenic patient 4/ patient with asthma. They were all similar to that. I didn't have any calculations (and by the way there is a calculator on the screen) The computer cut off at 89 questions and 5 days later I discovered I had passed. Good luck and don't give up.
