Still beats my imagination how people go into an exam and are busy counting the type of questions they got instead of concentrating and answering each question to the best of their abilities. Channel your energy wisely, you’re not writing your exam for reviews ‘to come here to post how many ‘SATAs’ you got,’ your aim should be to put in your best and PASS!

Told you so...

You passed! But, SATA being you last question plays no role, that’s just a myth!

Congratulations, I told you.

I know you passed, just let me know when the result comes through. Happy new year ?

You will pass. Some people got some misconceptions though. When you’re getting an easy question, you’re failing? Don’t you think that you felt they were easier cos, you know them? Some other person might feel the same questions were hard cos, he didn’t have an idea about them. The survey at the end contributes 0% towards your score, it’s just for research purposes and are randomly given to candidates, that’s why not everyone get it. In my opinion, NCLEX-RN is one of the easiest exams I have taken in my nursing journey. And I did it in 75. I wish you success!

Just know that there is no time you would feel that you are fully prepared. Just go at it...confidence. You gonna be amazed that you gonna make it.

I get what you are trying to say, I didn’t have a US nursing license and before I took my boards, I referred to myself here as RN cos, I never got a license. I refer myself as pre-nclex nurse.

Still confusing, how can you be RN, BSN and studying to retake NCLEX?

Sorry for your situation. But, you got to pick up yourself and have a go at it. Do not be use other people’s experience as a yardstick. Like when you said, you heard that the more ‘Select all that apply’ you get that means you are doing well. So, when you have all these kinda thoughts in your head, instead of tackling what is infront of you, you are considering the kinda questions that are popping up. From my experience if I even remembered correctly, I did not get up to 5 select all that applies questions and I got done at 75 questions and passed at a sitting. So, clear your mind, tackle your exam, each question at a time. Don’t use hearsay or other people’s experience as your yardstick. It is gonna bug you to death. You gonna pass you boards.

Lol ???

Am glad to hear about your experience. Congrats.

You mean 'counting SATAs is a waste of time or my writeup is a waste of time?' Clarify plz...thanks

Well spoken dear...it is a DISTRACTION! The earlier we know this, the better for all of us. Thank you.

I think the Nclex is complex enough on its own for us to be adding to the complexity by getting down to the 'most important' exam of our careers and start categorizing the question types we get instead of putting all our attention in the best way to figure out and pass our boards once and for all. Misplaced priorities, many of us come out here and start itemizing the question types they got in the exam, it changes nothing, only serves as a distraction to us achieving our goals: RN. Therefore, let's study our materials, get into the hall, get our exams done without stressing ourselves out on PVTs and permutations. Let's be that success we envisaged. Thanks.
