Lol.. Wow this trick still works, eh? Congratulations :)

good luck guys.. it's a great school

Mia, does your test say, "Delivery successful" or "Pending delivery"? If it says Delivery Successful then try it, then if it says, "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled the exam. Please contact your Member Board for further assistance. Another registration cannot be made at this time." There is another pop up message that you can get if you try to do it too early and that one doesn't mean anything.

Well I got 6 of the EXACT same TYPE of medication calculation question. The only thing different about them were the amounts of the drug and weight of the patients. I know for certain that I got every single one of them wrong, so that kind of leads me to believe that the test kept giving me them because it knew I couldn't figure it out. Ah well, passed anyway!

I think much of the experience with OB has to do with your clinical instructor and the facility that you are at. I was NOT looking forward to that quarter and in the end it ended up being my most enjoyable. Not that I'll be going into L&D, heh, but it was definitely an unexpected, yet very positive and educational experience for me.

I wish you the best of luck! And my goodness.. only 13 graduated out of a class of 40, what the heck!!! lol

Well that's what our Kaplan instructor told us, so she must've been misinformed. But the real question still is, did the OP run out of time (the 6 hours) while on the 158th question or did the test determine that he/she passed/failed at question #158!

No, you cannot take as long as you want for one question. I think your instructor meant that, in general, you can take as long as you want for the exam because 6 hours is usually more than enough for most people to finish. That would be very unfortunate if the time ran out at 158 questions rather than the test stopping because it determined you passed/failed. Oh and from what I've heard, if you run out of time, the test looks back on the last 60 questions completed or something like that and you had to have gotten them all correct.

Thank the good lord that I didn't have to do any of this; in fact this is the first time I've heard of anything like this. G'luck with it!

30 years old and just passed boards on Monday... start work this Monday

lolwut

ditto

Whiterabbit - you got it, don't worry. I came out of NCLEX (on Monday) convinced 100% that I had failed. I got every single med calculation wrong because it kept giving me the same type (as if it KNEW) and I had like 6 of them. I got like 6 meds that I had never even heard of so I was just guessing on those. And it felt as if I was guessing on the rest of them lol. I did the trick and and I got the same message as you did and last night I found out that I had passed. This trick truly does work... rest at ease until you know definitively.

Crystal, you gotta wait till the test says "Delivery successful" then check it.. it should then say something like.. "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your Member Board etc...."

Trick still works. After about a 99.9% certainty that I failed the NCLEX, I just checked my states BON online and my license states that it is now currently ACTIVE (which was previously PENDING) along with my Nurse Assistant and Health Care Assistant certifications. So if you're for certain that you failed, yet the trick ended up working for you and you did not get to the credit card page, you can breathe a little easier... WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!
