75 questions...

Beary-nice · Jul 8, 2007

I also had 75 questions. I am sure you did fine. You will have to let us know. Good luck! Fingers are crossed for you here in cattle country.

Thank you! It's so nervewracking to have to wait:uhoh3:

I took NCLEX sat. the 7th. Still don't see my results on the website. I, too, got 75 questions and walked out of there thinking...wait...give me more, I know I can prove myself. I had lots of med q's, lots of nutrition, 2 of the fill in the blank med calculations, and 5 select all that apply! I am still very nervous, and for a while, thought, I have to have someone else look up the results, because I just can't do it. I certainly did not walk out of there confident that I had passed...the exact opposite in fact. We'll see. If I didn't pass, I won't get my job; and believe it or not...it is hard to find a position around here as a new grad, even if you have gotten you license.

Good luck to you, and good luck to me too :)

I also felt that exact same way about getting more questions! I am very nervous, but I keep saying this...if we don't pass, at least we didn't have to sit there for 5 hours and not pass. I had a lot of nutrition, medication, Peds, and infection control questions...3 select all that apply and 2 med calculation questions.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you! I am dying over here. I won't lose my job, luckily, but will have to work as a tech with my pay cut in half. No thanks!

I took mine today too and had 75 questions. I walked feeling like "huh, that was compelling" as you wait years for this day and it is very anti-climatic, over in 45 minutes. I had a lot of prioritzation and lots of meds - meds I had no clue existed, and not one math problem.

I am very nervous and am not quite confident, in fact, I keep second guessing myself. I have the BON page up at all times and hit refresh every couple of minutes, you never know!!!

*Sigh* Please let me pass.

Your tests sounds exacyly like the one I had....same kinds of questions. When my computer shut off I was like, "no I need more time.." I won't find out if I passed until tomorrow....how about everyone else?

IrishRed32 · Jul 10, 2007

I really cannot take this waiting, it is horrible. I feel like I cannot concentrate on anything else. I bought myself a horse as a graduation present and I don't want to leave the computer to go see him. Plus, if I don't pass I really won't be able to afford him. *gulp*

I haven't slept, and have wicked GI upset. This better be worth the torture I am going through :)

Hi there, I took mine yesterday too, and got 75. Mine sounded just like everyone elses I had TONS of teaching, meds that I've definitely NEVER heard of, and around 7 select all that apply. I also had a bunch of priority....don't really know what to think. I feel somewhat confident, but with this test you never know. Can't wait to see my results tomorrow! Good luck to everyone!

After little sleep, chainsmoking when I had quit a long time ago, and diarrhea; I found out this morning that I passed! Sorry about the details, lol, just wanted to paint a mental picture of the anguish!!! What a relief! Now I can move on with my life!

Angie, RN :balloons: :lol2:

Congratulations new RN!

I took my test today, and I got 75 questions. From those I had infection control, priority, and some meds I haven't even heard of. When I was getting the med questions, I was like ah? and what the hell is that? I guessed them all. Well, I really hope I passed. The worst thing I can think of by not passing is going through those kaplan questions again. They really make sick. I don't care if they cut my pay in half, I just think I can't study anymore, even though I did it for a week before the test, he he.. Studying really sucks. I did it in nursing school, that was enough!
