thanks a lot guys.... It was a gr8 moment when i knew that i was passed... but Now job search is killing me. I am trying to move to texas but still job hunting is so bad that they need experienced people. I felt that its difficult to find a job for new graduate. Hope I would be dissapointed too much. all the bst for those who are giving board exam...

hello everyone, thanks for the suggestions that you all gave me. finally i got the result that i passed my board exam. i had 265 questions and didn’t take any break. i stayed straight 6hrs for the exam and didn’t know the time went so fast. but when i came out from the exam hall, i felt that i failed. i wasn’t worried that much because i was tired and i wasn’t been able to sleep other 2 last nights. i couldn’t stop studying even last day and that morning. after i came from the exam, i tried the pearson vue trick trying to register again. i got the message that i can't register again and felt that i passed. today i got the official result that i passed. i studied for 10 hours daily for 6 weeks and took break only on july 4th. i finish studying kaplan and i reviewed q-trainer from 1-5 2 times, finished all q bank, studied my notes that i made during kaplan review, other notes that i found in internet. still i felt that i wasn’t ready for the test. i had 59 on q-trainer 7 and 54 on 6 but 60’s on 1 and 2. i had more than 50% from psych and i was so disappointed with that becz most sata questions were from psych esp therapeutic communications. i saw many topics which i never learned in nursing school as well as in kaplan. i had almost 30 sata and most of them were from psych. any way at end, i passed. i am glad that i made it.

Thank you so much to all for the comment. And congrat to those who passed. When i think about rescheduling exam, i dont think it will help me again coz a week really doesnt matter. I read the content and I know the content. The only problem is finding the right answer between two and I change my answer a lot. Though there is saying, first instinct is always right. I do believe also but I can't help myself. When I gave test 5, there were 20 of those from correct to incorrect and when i reviewed it, I knew where the mistake i did while rationalizing abt the test. But, still I want wait till coming sunday to decide. This forum has been helpful a lot for me. This is my 2nd facebook and I grab a lot of ideas from here. Again thanks a lot, I think I would stop studying that much from today just reviewing the kaplan that I did.

Hello Everyone, I need a suggestion please. I am giving my NCLEX-RN exam on july 28th 2011. I have been studying more than 5 weeks. We started kaplan since I joined the college and I have completed all the Q-bank- i had around 50-60%, DXtest-51% and readiness 57%. I did Q trainner 1-2,3,4 and 5. I have 60s in 1and 2 and 50s on 3 and 4. But when i gave 5th, i got 49%. I was really dissapointed with my result. When i reviewed, i found that I ended up getting 2 answers and pick up wrong answer at the end. I always look at the time and give test. I feel like i have test anxiety. So, would you suggest me to reschedule the date of my exam or not. I still feel like i know the content, I read all the kaplan book once and I am reviewing med again coz i keep on forgetting. I am also worried becz what if i get more from one part where i am weak. I am studing almost like 10hours a day. I have been reading posting about low score in kaplan and passing the NCLEX. But still I am worried coz i dont wana make it too far. my thinking is i will give test 6 and If i get less than 60s i will reschedule exam a week later. Pls suggest me and comment how should i study these few days. I would be glad to hear abt recent test taker so that i would have less anxiety.
