The majority of my questions were SATA as well. I freaked out when I shut down at 85 questions. Best wishes to you. I hope you passed! I didn't do the PVT until two days before I got my results (I waited for six weeks) but I still didn't trust the PVT! To avoid anxiety, I took the time off after my test to relax and do everything I love to do. I passed

Invest in the 'NCLEX 5000' reviewer program. I used NCLEX 3000 back in September, then went back to my school and found out that there is actually NCLEX 5000 already. I used that program 100% of the time I had studied for the NCLEX-PN. It totally prepared me for all the select all that apply questions on my exam! I was super confident in most of my answers! Also, whenever family, friend, coworker, or anyone I speak to has a question about health or how the human body and all its systems work, I do my best to teach them whatever I can remember. Then just to make sure, I go over it with them in a book or... google -- If I answer their questions correctly, I get to feel good about it. If I get it wrong, I still feel good about it because I learn more about whatever their question is. Same with medications. Watch TV and note down all the new meds that appear in the ads and what their side effects and purpose is. Doing that saved my butt on one of the questions during my exam! I always studied in an EMPTY room. Just a table, a desk, and my laptop with the internet disconnected until I was done studying for at least two hours a day. I did 75 questions a day, then started doing as many as I can leading up to my test. I always made sure I had a happy tummy, lots of rest during the night and in between study sessions. I also avoided isolating myself from friends, family, my girlfriend and I didn't give up my hobbies. I made time for them whenever I was able to. Don't burn yourself out, stay happy and believe in yourself. I was not the brightest student in my class, or in school for that matter. I took my NCLEX in September, three years after I graduated from my LVN program. I slowed down but I never lost sight of my goal of becoming an LVN-- But by all means, please stay consistent in your studies and do not be like me. I screwed up a lot. My supportive loved ones always encourage me to finish anything I start no matter how long it takes, so that's exactly what I did... I passed my exam with the minimum amount of questions on my first attempt and I cried when I received my passing letter. I spent a whole day believing I was in a dream... Like I said earlier.. I was confident throughout my exam, but when my computer screen shut off on me after question #85, all that confidence went out the window because I freaked out and asked myself, "WHY DID IT SHUT OFF AT 85? DID I DO THAT BAD?" I hope this helps you out! Keep pushing for your license. You'll make it! Oh yeah, and make sure you study the rationales!! Best wishes!

Enjoy the wait! I had to wait 6 weeks for my results. I tried the PVT two days before I received my results. I had to put in my credit card info and hit submit before it told me I couldn't register because "records show that (I) have already scheduled (my) exam" or something similar to that. It's somewhat of a $200 gamble. If you passed, you don't spend your money. If you fail, I guess the board takes $200 dollars from your account. Good luck, I hope you passed!

I saw lots of cheating in my program and had a lot of opportunities to cheat as well. As hard as school was and as tempted as I had gotten-- I never allowed myself to cheat. I failed a lot of my exams and ended up learning even more from those failures.
