75 questions & passed...types of ?'s I had

I was freaking out when I took my test... I had mostly questions with the word priority in them ... such as which patient do you see first, with a patient with this diagnosis which symptom would be a priority to look further into... I had lower level questions too (it was really obvious when I was missing questions...they would go from like a paragraph long to one sentence long, really concrete thinking)

I had 5 or 6 choose all that apply... 3 dosage calculations... and what freaked me out the most were my last ten questions (literally from 65 to 75) were drug questions I didn't know the answers to most of them... they were mostly which drug order would you question for a particular patient... I had no idea what it meant to end on a drug question, or if those were considered upper level or not... I also had a LOT of teaching questions and a few safety questions...

I swear I was sick for two days with no appetite and hardly sleeping (tons of nightmares) ... I took my test on thursday the 31'st and I found out on saturday morning that I passed on the pearson vue website at 8:00...the exact time my test was scheduled

Do not listen to people who say to check the state board website out first.... I heard your license information comes up 24 hours after you take the test (and I think for some people it does) but not for me and everybody I know so I was really freaking out... some people I know who took their test mid january, the state board is still just showing the expiration date of their temp license.

Anyway, just thought I'd share my experience. It's a really painful couple of days or so but once you find out it seems like no time passed at all....

But, I do agree with Silverdragon. I'm in FL and my license was up on the BON 46 1/2 hours from the start time of my exam . Pearson VUE had my results available at 49 hours.
