240 questions in 6 hours and I feel like crying

[JPGasmin]

I just took the NCLEX today, went all 6 hours and did 240 questions. That was the longest most stressful 6 hours of my life. when I was reaching the 200 mark I was just praying for it to end. I just thank God I finished. But now I feel like I failed. I left feeling defeated and like my mind just exploded.

Did any of you go through a similar situation?? Go up to 200 questions or do all 6 hours??

I applied for Florida and check their BON site the day after the exam. Thanks, spend the whole day feeling depressed, but i'm hoping sooner than later I will pick myself up and try again.

So sorry

Give yourself a little TLC time, but when you get the CPR, formulate a new plan. Good luck for next time!

Hi! don't give up!

I applied for Florida too and failed last April. I stopped at 75, it was depressing to know because it was a clear fail. I thought reading Saunders page by page is enough. I was even proud of my myself that I was able to finish a 2 thousand page book. I never did that in Nursing School! After 2 weeks I applied for re examination because I didn't want to forget what I have already reviewed. I didn't just memorize this time, I did 150-200 questions every day and then read each rationale after. Right or wrong answers. Try the Kaplan Question Trainer it did help me to analyze and answer the questions. For me the questions are very much like the ones from nclex. Unlike the questions from Saunders Comprehensive Review. I took the exam last week and had 265 questions. with just 10mins remaining on the clock! The computer was giving me SATAs every other 3 questions past the 150th question I seriously think I had 30 or more SATAs. I couldn't even believe I was the only one left in the testing room. So there, sorry for the lengthy post. When you feel like quitting, Remember why you started.
