Disa

Got my quick results this afternoon...looks like the "good pop up" worked for me too! PASS!!! :w00t:

I took it Saturday as well (155 questions...left in tears)...REALLY hoping that quick results come tomorrow (Monday). I got the good pop-up as well so fingers crossed...I already have a position on a surgical floor in a hospital...SUPER JEALOUS of your L&D position Alikatz! That's where I want to be but no one around here will hire onto a "specialty" floor until we have one year of Med/Surg in. Congrats! :-)

I graduated from Clinton Community College in Plattsburgh, NY. I know Associate Degree RNs are slowly going to disappear, but this wasn't a "reality" when I started. I'm enrolled at SUNY Plattsburgh in the fall to earn my Bachelor's degree online. Our school is notorious for being tough...and I will say, I had to want it EVERY day...it was life-changing. We started with around 70, and graduated with 41. There were 42 of us until the last final...the FINAL final actually knocked someone out (it was hard though, LOL)

I just took my NCLEX-RN today...I felt the admission process was extremely intense and made my nervousness shoot up to the max. I graduated from a nursing program that is prestigious and known as being very tough...with a 97% pass rate, so I felt well-prepared and confident. Needless to say I was PRAYING that the computer would shut off at 75 questions as it had for many of my classmates who have recently taken it, but it just kept on going...with each question past 75 I became more and more crushed and discouraged. The beast finally keeled over at 155 questions. I didn't count, but I would estimate about 20 SATA, no sound, no hot spots, and maybe 10 dosage calculations. Holy crap. Walked out quickly to try to keep it together and not cry in front of the proctors...felt like nursing school--no matter how tough it was--had not prepared me for this. I IMMEDIATELY pulled out my cell phone and checked to see if the "trick" would work. My results had been delivered so I continued to try to re-register and got the so-called "good" pop-up. Trying like heck to believe it, but I'll never deny how HARD that test was. So...48 business hours huh until "quick results?" I'm in NY, and I'm at least thankful for that. But, that timeline places me in my car with my entire family traveling to our remote vacation destination that was planned before I scheduled my exam. I'm seriously hoping that results will appear Monday afternoon (48 actual hours, counting Sunday as a "business" day), and I won't need to wait until Tuesday. I'd at least like to have time to compose myself and grieve the time and money spent without my family witnessing my shame. I'm trying to have faith in that "good" popup, but I'd much rather see the word PASS next to my name. Anyone out there that tested on a Saturday and got results on Monday?
