Unfortunately Virginia does not participate in the quick result, BUT it only took them a couple of days to have it on their automated telephone line. It's still not posted on their website, but that is okay :), I can call them every now and them and just listen to the message say my name :) :) :) The sweet sound!!!

If I have learned anything, this test tests you as much on knowledge as on concentration. Around question 40 or so, I started to analyze :"Why is this question easier, I thought I answered the last one right", or "Why is it asking me the same question just from a different angle over and over". My mind started wandering off, worrying about things that I shouldn't be worrying about. I had to tell myself to stay on task. I have yet to talk to anybody who walked out after taking this test and didn't feel like they had just flunked royally! Now, why is that?

No, Virginia.

Just found out: I passed!!! What a relief!! I can finally sleep!

I am in the same boat. Took NCLEX last Thursday 01-17-2008 and now I am waiting. When it shut off after 75 question I had tears running down my cheeks. I guess complete relief that it was over with. But that doesn't take the worry and the ulcers away. I was always told that the first question would be easy, but I didn't think so. It started out hard and stayed hard. There was also NO variety. I would say 75% of my test was on Hormones (Addisons, SIDH, DI,Thyroid stuff) prioritization and delegation. I think the whole test is just a mind game. I kept wondering why there were asking questions on the same stuff over and over again. Where was cardiac when you needed it!!!! A friend of mine took it on the 18th and the majority of hers was on AIDS and medications she had never heard of. Again NO variety. Once they start, it seems as if they just keep pounding you on the same things over and over. So in the meantime, I am having sleepless nights, growing ulcers and my anal self is trying to figure out how many question I would have had to miss or get right in order to reach the 95th percentile in probability :)
