It really doesnt matter if you got math questions, on my test i had no math questions at all , but i did get 6 select all that apply and i swear about 20 med questions and a ton of priority questions. so by the sounds of it , it sounds like your wife did a good job and California is just slow with the results but check website daily to see if she is on there , they update in the wee hours of the morning

I took it August 13, 2007 and found out on the CA BON on August 15 , 2007 that i passed. If she got 75 questions more than likely she passed it also depends on where she went to school if her transcripts are in and f they are not they will not post any results on the website . I went to school in Sacramento and my college submitted all paperwork in July ....Tell her hang in there and I am sure she is fine

I passed the second time around , I got 75 questions and i will tell you read and reread the question ..I always had patient safety in the back of my mind ....also i did start suzannes plan but it just seem to slow for me ....

I failed the first time around, I did Kaplan course , I did the Qtrainer two times and every Qbank question and I read each and every rationale whether i got it right and wrong ! I also did the Saunders book the chapters I was weak in I did ! After all of this studying I passed the second time around with 75 questions , i took 196 the first time. Think patient safety what is always safe for the patient and your meds. I also did Saunders CD and hit analysis questions only as those are the ones you will get on NCLEX ! Do medications off of Saunders too , I got 20 med questions and I knew them all except for one medication . But I knew when the test shut off I passed . I had a good feeling !

took my test august 13th and my name on CA BON on ausgust 15 ,it really does depend who has your file and how fast they process it . Hang in there , the worst case scenario is you take it again , so what is what all the nurses on my floor said and guess what i took it again and i passed ! in the end thats all that matters ....

Hang in there , if you need any help anywhere let me know , start studying now if you didnt pass , thats what i did my first date was june 14th , i knew i didnt pass by june 18th i started studying slowly and then when i got my letter a month later i put it in high gear , i study for 2 months before i sat for boards again , remember take care of yourself too and enjoy life ,i still did things that i enjoyed

To be honest with you i had 20 medications and i was familiar with all of them except for 1 , which in turn after reading the answers over and over again came to realize it was abx, so i used the Saunders CD when it came to pharmacology , they have a good selection and their questions where quite familiar to what was on NLCEX , Patient teaching huge on Nclex

hey guys my inbox is getting overloaded with pm's so i decided to post it on here ! this is what i did to help prepare the second time around and i passed ! i felt confident and i was able to tackle the questions. by the way to those of you asking i did not or read the kaplans book , i did every question in the qbank and test trainer 4,5,6,7, two times its repitition and how to answer the question , totally different from nursing school you have got to put yourself on the floor as if you are taking care of a patient ....think airway, breathing, circulation, pain and safety ! read below hello to all of you i want to share my experience with some of you , today i took the nclex rn exam for the second time in the row. my first date was june 14 and my second date today august 13 th. after i found out that i didnt pass the first time , i was devastated but i also know i didnt study enough for that type of test . that type of test needs proper preparation . i left out of there my very first time in tears , only because i knew i did not pass. i get my results approxiamtely 3 weeks after i took the boards , failed is what it said , i failed 3 sections out of the eight and i was nearly passing at the rest of them . so the way i interpreted was that i pretty much failed i took 197 questions the first time around . i tool 2.5 hours to take the exam . what did i do , i put a study plan into effect, i took out a calendar came up with a test date and committed and adhered to my study plan. i read 3 chapters a day in the saunders book and completed the test after every chapter , i also did 100 questions in the kaplans q bank daily . if i was working ( well i worked as an ip until i found out i didnt pass and then i worked as a na ) i would just read my saunders book and then i would do the 50 questions in kaplan q bank. i also committed myself to do the q bank 2x over just so i was familiar . i had two weeks to go before my test date i had to throw it in high gear , on my days off i would study for 5 to 6 hours a day , i would do around 500 questions in that time . i reviewed every rationale whether i got it right or wrong i read it all . down to one week left till testing date , i did test 6 , got a 74 % on it wheeewwwhooo i was feeling good , next day did test 7 got a 67% i wasnt feeling to good but kaplans states if you get a 65 % or higher go in with confidence . so then i did test 5 got a 62 % i was bummed i couldnt believe it my test scores are going down what is going on here . so i then decide i was going to re-do all three tests and i did scoring a 95 % or higher the second time around . the day before my test date i did test 4 and reviewed the every rationale right or wrong i scored a 72% on it . the day of the test , pearson vue called said i could come in earlier if i wanted , my appointed time was a 2 but i showed up at 12 , before i left my house i did 70 questions in the kaplan q bank , yikes i know but i did it . i sit down in front of the computer my heart pounding , my hands shaking but i continue , by question 3 i got my first select all that apply , by question 22 i got another select all that apply by question 40 i had gotten 4 select all that apply and by question 60 i had 5 select all that apply , my test shut off at 75 , but i looked at question 75 and i stared for a good ten minutes ! i was so afraid to look further beyond it i was afraid that it will continue to question 76 , but my computer screed turned blue at that moment i got real scared and jittery i was afraid , what if i failed . when it was all said and done i got 20 medication question , a ton of priority and delegation a few ob questions 1 pediatric question some med surg questions too . i felt so different this time , i still do not know my results but i can tell you i feel better , i feel a sense of accomplishment , i am crossing my fingers and i am praying that i passed . if i did not pass i cannot imagine what i did wrong , how could i study some more or how much more . with this all said and done i have done over 3500 questions and i am hoping to pass . for all you test repeaters stay strong and adhere to your study plan , i passed with doing the following above ! i hope this helps someone who will be retaking the nclex, i am not going to lie it was not easy but it was do able if that makes sense . good luck and keep your head up !

i passed

No just my reapply fee of 75.00 and 200.00 for the test

When it came down to the week of my test , i focused mainly on the Q Bank , my goal was to do the Q bank 2 times over , I stopped doing the Saunders book , because its not really about content , alot of it was what are you going to do , Always Assess before you Implement , ( if you can go to implement first then go but if you have an assessment that needs to be done , do that first ) if you go right to implement look for the stem in question and then ask yourself if i did this would i cause harm to my patient ? if the answer is YES then you cannot do it , then go to your next answer and then ask yourself why am i picking this answer ? The other thing we were taught in school and this works if you are stuck , Airway, Breathing, Circulation , Pain and Safety ! Trust me it works . Ialso used my white erase board that they gave me , I would write 1234 and then cross out ones i could eliminate and then i focused on the two answers that were left and i applied the above technique . I hope this works for you , go slow it took me 2 hours to do 75 questions and by question 3 i got my first select all that apply . When it came to meds , and if i didnt know what the med was i looked at the most life threatening and picked that as my answer , i also looked at the answers to try and define what the med was if i didnt know it . I used Saunders CD and did pharmacology , i would do the quiz ten questions at a time and did 50 just so i wasnt burned out . the challenge with the NCLEX is choosing the BEST answer ! Its tricking but you can do it . Trust me I was scared , but as soon as i sat down i made a promise to myself that i would not be returning here to take this test again . If yo have anymore questions let me know ... I wish you luck and believe in yourself you can do it . Look at my other post on how prepared !
