Yes, yes I did!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe you were just really prepared! I do think that a little bit of luck and a lot of knowledge falls into the NCLEX. I mean if you work on a neuro floor and a lot of your questions fall into drugs that pertain to neuro disorders, etc. the test ma...

Yes, I passed!

Mine were just about the same. By the week before the exam, I would score anywhere between 60-80%

I've worked in long term care for years. I have been at this particular place 4 1/2 years. I like it. It's challenging, but I like it. I just graduated as an RN and don't know if I should take the job position there or not. Am I being a chicken...

I think it's great that you had such a positive experience! As beginning nurses we yearn for positive experiences. CHF flareups can happen at the drop of a hat. Personally, I don't think you should be 100% comfortable with everything thrown at you....

Thank you. I am working pool right now at the home, and frankly what they pay me is much higher than anything I've found. Now, if I take a regular position the wage drops by like $7. I should take a part time position at a hospital and stay pool w...

I guess I don't know what to do now. I mean, I know if you fail you get a print out to look at. Do they send me my license and then that's it? Or, what exactly? I can't find any info on what to do if you pass....

Thank you everyone for your support. I won't be leaving though. Now it's my turn to support everyone else. I'm so happy. I just started shrieking and crying when I saw pass. Truely one of the best days of my life. I get to go to work today!! ...

6 hours and 15 minutes I will encounter my first question. I have been doing Saunders, Saunders, and more Saunders. I usually do the quizzes on the CD. I like having that fairly immediate rationale. I tend to score 6-8 on all the quizzes. Someti...

I found conflicting info between some of the books. I thought Saunders was good and then Kaplan. I feel like recommending Saunders is beating a dead horse around here, but it truely is the closest. Same question length etc. I think for me the bi...

:Crash: If I check this darn pearson vue site again I'm going to lose it.

Well, I wouldn't think potassium. Sodium is a better indicator. I guess between the three I would go with skin turgor. Oral membranes can dry out with a mouth breather. What was the fourth choice? As for the second question their orthostatics wou...

Where in Wi did you take it? I took mine on the 25th in Brookfield. Still waiting for results. It does say that Pearson Vue delivered the results...just waiting on the Board. I keep getting excited, but then I knock myself back down just in case.

Wow! You found out fast! Congratulations!!! :balloons:

I thought the questions were very similar to Saunders. But I'll be honest....I felt like it was so entirely random...everything related to a drug.

75 questions. No math. Three pick all that apply. Some prioritization, who would you assess first. Lots of drugs. Lots. Not feeling well about this at all. *sigh*

Yeah, just got home. 75 questions. LOTS of pharm questions. Not feeling particularly good.

My fellow classmate just got done with hers and called me. She said it wasn't easy, but it wasn't terrible either. More common sense on a lot of it. She got a lot of priority questions and who would you see first types. Couple drugs, and one fill...

My test is scheduled for January 25th at 3:15. It was scary just hitting that confirm button. I'm very nervous. I am meeting my schoolmates tomorrow and we are going to swap NCLEX study books. I have Kaplan, one friend has Saunders, and one has ...

It probably depends on where you live, but I got mine in about 10 days. And that was smack in the middle of a holiday.

:balloons: :biggringi :yelclap: My daughter was born 1 pound 9 ounces and I am also planning on NICU nursing! Good Job!

Sleep? You mean a solid nights sleep? What the heck is that? I know the night I finally have RN behind my name I doubt I'll sleep..but after mmmmmmm. Yes. I'm hoping to finally be at peace after passing.

I would fathom you passed just based on how difficult you found the questions. If I were getting tested on a bunch easy peasy questions I would be more worried. Think positive!

My state received it on Dec. 28th. So it was a very quick turn around. I actually don't mind studying for this. I try to think of it as a game. I have to admit that I can only study in one hour chunks otherwise my brain fries. I got a 64% on my ...
