75qs I think I failed. =/

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

75q in 1.5hours.

i'm normally a fast test taker so I really tried to slow down with the NCLEX questions, even in practice.

I'm so nervous! I took the NCLEX this morning. and it shut off at 75 questions.

I got 19 SATAs, 1 ordering, and 1 calculation.

I got my LAST question wrong!!! =/ it was a pharm question. i thought I got it right until I looked it up and i was WRONG WRONG WRONG. it was clearly the wrong answer =/

During the test i was confident, especially in the beginning. and then towards the end i started second guessing myself. changed 6 questions! i wasn't supposed to but i couldn't help it!

and now i keep remembering questions and looking them up and getting them wrong!! especially the pharm qs =/

I did the PVT and i got the pop up "recently scheduled, please contact board for assistance." and supposedly that's the old good pop up?

I'm soo nervous. I feel like i'm the 1% that the PVT isn't true!

I won't even know until thursday or friday morning on the CA BRN.

Anyone pass at 75qs and got their last question wrong??

Specializes in Cardiac.

OP- please let us all know what the final outcome was for you!

I hate SATA questions in school! I always check all of the correct answers but then add one more and bomb the whole thing. At least now I know I really need to find those types of questions and practice them :)

I found a book at Barnes and Nobles that was all alternate format questions. I went through alot of that book since I knew there's lots of sata now. Worth looking at!

This is the book:

I didn't buy it though, I studied from books at B&N just sitting in there.

So, bayareastudent, my results came in this morning, and I passed!! You did too. The PVT worked, the high SATA's were a good sign, it was all true. Breathe deeply.

Yay for finally being a nurse! Not a student anymore. How weird...

Congrats to you!

yayy! congrats to you!

for everyone: thank you for your support. i will find out tomorrow from CA BRN. =)

I took mine in Texas on Thursday, too, at 8am... got 75 questions, and like you, felt like I completely failed it. I felt a bit better talking to some others afterward, but still can't believe how WEIRD that test was and how unconfident I felt afterward.

I can't bring myself to do the PVT; I am way too scared that it will not be accurate or that it will say I failed. I am holding my breath and hoping I can sleep tonight until 8am tomorrow morning. T-minus 12 hours!!! And here's hoping I'm not one of the lucky ones whose records are on hold...

Definitely want to hear how you did! :)

*freaking out*

Ok just checked Pearson Vue quick results and I am officially an RN!!!!!!! The PVT works!!!!! I had failed a few times before, always got the CC section except for this time and I thought 100% that I failed when I left the testing center, waterworks and all. 2yrs 8 months post graduation, 3 tests later, $2,000.00 in fees, to say I am an RN... PRICELESS ;)

For everone else that got the same "old" good popup and is still awaiting your results... YOU PASSED!!!!! I know you won't be able to celebrate until you see it for yourself but congratulations in advance!!! xoxo
