Repeat questions on NCLEX?

Hello! I am new member, but have been lurking for a while. It has been very encouraging to read the postings here! Thank you all! You see, I did not pass the NCLEX the first time, but just took it the second time today. I feel better about this time around (more confident about my answers), but I still doubt as to whether I passed this time. I got some questions that although were not the same they were a bit similar in that they were regarding the same disease and classifications of meds. I wonder if this is a bad sign like the CAT system knew what I didn't know or something. I got some repeat questions the first time around too. I was wondering if anyone that passed got a few questions that were on the same disease/meds? I wonder if it's a bad sign too that I think I did better. I keep hearing/reading that people say that if you think it was easy then you might have failed. Anyway, I'm just anxious and just trying to keep the hope alive. :) Thanks.

I thought it was easy and I passed.

No repeat questions, though...

I feel the same exact way! I got repeat question on my 2nd try that was on Tuesday. The questions were the same but the answer options were different. I really don't remember getting any repeat questions the first time. It was all a blur, 265 questions, 5 hours, headache, just knew I failed and I did. I too also felt more confident in my abilities to answer this time and like you I wonder if that is good or bad. My meds were just about all inhalation ones, one psych and one optic. Had lots of questions with ESSENTIAL, PRIORITY, IMMEDIATE, FIRST, 3 select all that apply, 5 meds, 3 math. I was out in 1 hour and 15 minutes and I was smiling. I just was so much more comfortable this time. I hope and pray it is a good thing and I should know tomorrow! Fingers crossed, I pray for all of us!

Gob bless!

Forgot to add that this time it shut off at 76 instead of going all the way to 265, praise GOD!

Just relax.....I am pretty sure that you'll pass. I have so much in common with you. I had 265 the first time, however, I haven't had the courage to retake it. I don't think my confidence level is as high as yours. Let us know how you did.

I'll be praying and hoping for us all too! I can relate to you too...got 265 first time (that was mind numbing!) and 75 this time around. Thank God!

rebmem, i forgot to add..that i wasn't really that confident going into the second test. actually i was more anxious and nervous this time. i just felt better afterwards. to be honest i didn't know when i would ever feel ready for this test. but since i finished my review book, i figured i'd try it again. hopefully you are right and i passed - thanks for the encouragement. hope your studying is going well and we will pass this silly test!
