Just curoius how nurses out there have dealt with mistakes they have made.

Hi, I took my boards on a Friday and had my results on a Sunday. I am in Idaho, it does depend on your BON. Good luck to you on the boards.

Congrats to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish you the very best and may God be with you during this stressfull time.

Way to go! :balloons:

Hi, I just recently graduated in May from RN school. I was an LPN that went on to RN school. It is possible folks, it just seems impossible at times. I took my RN boards last week and found out that I had passed. Another chapter in my life completed....

Congrats to you Cheri on becoming a new LPN. I was an LPN before becoming an RN and the experience I gained while working as an LPN has been very valuable to me.

Remember that this is ONLY A TEST! It is not Armagedon. The focus placed on this test increases ones anxiety to a level of insanity. I just made my mind up that this is crazy and I was not going to let some test freak me out. I drove 5 hours to the t...

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:balloons:

I don't personally know anyone who failed with 75 qyestions.

I have taken both the PN and RN boards. I had minimums with both and passed both.

I did not have any math on both the PN and RN NCLEX exams and I passed them both.

I felt Like I was guessing through the entire test. I also thought I had failed when I walked out of the testing center. I also had 75 questions. I am willing to bet big money that you passed. I passed and you will too.

Kimmy, I took the NCLEX recently and had several priority questions as well and I didn't have any drug calculations. I also had the minimum of 75 questions and was very unsure of my performance on the test. I did indeed pass but I think I questioned...

If you took your test on the 9th you could find out today wether or not you passed.

I have bridged over from LPN to RN and remain working in the same facility. I did receive more pay than a new RN grad, they took into account my years of expeirence as an LPN. I required this and if not I would go elswhere. LPNs are nurses that funct...

Hi, I have gone from LPN to RN recently. I just took the RN boards and found out today that I had passed. I did not think that the RN boards were any harder than the LPN boards. They just had a different focus is all.I had more pharmacy on the RN boa...

Congrats, all that worrying for nothing! I also found out today that I had passed. I had 75 questions as well. I was unsure as well, but it worked out.

Hi, I was also worried about study time. I only studied for a total of maybe 10 hours. I was working full time and I have children, hardly time for sleep. I did take the boards on the 9th of June, last Friday and just found out this morning that I pa...

Congrats! I also just took the boards myself but do not know yet if I passed. Today was my big day, I had 75 questions. I am currently an LPN who went back to get my RN.

Hi, I also took my boards today. I am soooo nervous as well. I think it is the unknown that makes us feel so uncertain.

You are so correct when you speak of the waiting list with nursing schools these days. So many people out there only see that we have a nursing shortage and do not conect that with the shortage of nursing instructors as well as clinical sites. I am d...

For those of you out there who went from an ADN to a BSN can you share with me how you feel this extra education has helped in your career? I am currently finishing an ADN program and am considering the BSN.

Is med/surg the best place for a new nurse to start their career? I will be graduating as an RN in May. Your input is appreciated.

Community Colleges are wonderfull! You will recieve an excellent education, with lots of clinical skills to boot. Good Luck!
