CONGRATULATIONS!!!! That's great:-) So much work and worry... Now the real learning begins for us. It's going to be challenging and rewarding at the same time. I'm so happy for you... Lisa RN It's been two weeks for me and I'm still floating!

Hi Christine, I understand what you're feeling as I felt the same way. 75 questions with lots of prioritization, prioritization, pioritization, and herbals.... I found out I passed exactly 48 hours after my NCLEX had started on Pearson Vue for the b...

Hi Laura, I just wanted to let you know I've questioned myself just as you have. Our next door neighbor had a L occipital aneurism 4 years ago and I still think about him. After hearing the same response and researching and reading the probable out...

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. I visited the site I will be testing for my NCLEX in the morning, wore shorts, shirt, and sandles. It was the frozen tundra in the office. BRRRRRrrrr. I plan on wearing t-shirt with jacket in hand, pants ...

Hey Happy ER RN, You're not a "slacker". I simply have analysis paralysis and overachiever syndrome. We each have to find the path that works for us. Congratulations on your marriage - that's important to nuture too. Balance makes a difference. Ta...

Suzanne, I passed at 75 questions. When I reflect on the test, the questions seemed to double in difficulty at about #46, and then continued to double in difficulty every 5-6 questions there after. It seems odd to me that NCLEX would be set so that...

Christine, Good advice to take a break. I also stopped reviewing at 1:00 the day before I took the NCLEX, had a blast with my boys that afternoon and later in the evening I went for a hour massage. Well worth the money for the relaxation it brought...

Are you waiting to test or waiting for results? Anything specific that you're wondering? I wore shoes (not sandles), pants and shirt. I found the test site chilly. It was a little unnerving for me to have to remove my watch and be finger printed ...

The way learningext.com starts is with a 150 pretest of which I had 111 correct (74%). I can see how my original post could have been misleading - thanks for the heads up:p. I found the NCLEX questions similar in style; however, I thought the diffi...

Hey Margaret, I used the on-line prep course that you mentioned and found it very,very beneficial and was a reasonable cost. I signed up for the 7 week class and studied 2 hours a day for 6 out of the seven weeks. I bounced back and forth from Lippe...

:chuckle :rotfl: Congratulations Valiere RN, I know exactly how you feel! I found out that I passed at 9:01 this morning. What a beautiful thing to see. I attempeted to see it again, but the computer won't let me log back on to Pearson Vue. ...

What time did you take your boards on Weds? Yours should be coming up real soon. Let me know when ya find out.... You have a cheerleader wishing you well! Glad to hear they post even on the weekends... whewwww. Yes, I plan on paying the $7.95. ...

Hey nurseguy, I just wanted you to know that if you're interested in nursing go for it! Nursing is a great profession and the male gender can be a benefit. I've seen many nurses advance in their career. Men in particular seem to be able to advance...

Hi miniNYnurse, Sign me up to your decompressing camp when it's started. (LOL)

Hi miniNYnurse, Could you give me more information about the board of nursing site and Pearson Vue. Pearson Vue web site states "results delivered" but test results are not available. How long did it take for your results to show up on Pearson? Th...

Thank you so much for your input and paving the way for us new grads and the information you've shared. I'm so respectful of those who have been advocates for change and thankful for having the opportunity to test on computer. As nursing students w...

Hi Valiere, Thanks for the good advice... as time passes I'm getting more and more uncertain about the results. I took a practice NCLEX by Mosby, scored in the 98th percentile, studyied 2 hours a day for the past 2 months and feel even more uncertai...

Hi RN, RN, RN Amanda, Just thought you might like the sounds of RN a few times. I'm so very happy for you. :balloons: :balloons: I tested this morning and the computer shut off at 75 questions. I had multiple sellect all, math, and lots of p...

Hey, You're not alone... I had 75 this AM with priority, math, and priority questions gallor. I too felt well prepaired with some questions very challenging and required masive critical thinking. I understand your feelings of uncertainty. Lis

k kay thanks for the info regarding your NCLEX experience... I visited the site today to check out the lay of land. Very glad that I did!!! The room was the frozen tundra (Can you tell I'm from Wisconsin and Packerland? LOL) I will dress in layers...

I can't believe I received my ATT :) I've been studying two hours per day, with over 3000 questions, lab review, note review and was able to schedule to test on 6/17/05. Does anyone have any good pointers for redirecting the anxiety associated wit...

Nicole, I understand how you feel. I've been studying two hours a day for the past two months and still feel as I could know more.... I've scheduled to test 6/17 and feel anxious. Worrying I decided to put in my pocket because it just gets in my w...

Hi Amanda "soon 2B RN", Thanks for the well wishes.... I'm studying this AM and putting the books away about 1:00 today, taking the kids to the park and then for a massage. I'm sending passing wishes to you. Have you checked your state board of nurs...

:balloons: :rotfl: :balloons: :rotfl: Congratulations!!! I'm so happy for you and your accomplishments - YEAHHHH.. I test on 6/17/05 - any advice??? Also, when did you test and how long did the results take? Thanks Milton RN 2B

Hi Holli, Good luck on you NCLEX June 13th :) I think Monday's are a good choice because you won't have to wait the weekend. I'm having a hard time waiting. I have not recieved my ATT yet. As I said before, my information has been into the stat...
