I took nclex this am and i am a wreck. I had 75 questions of which i'm guessing about 70 percent were sata.....I have to disagree with those folks that were telling me nclex was easier than hesi!! it was very hard. I am really down right now and nervous about the results. did anyone else have a similar experience? help in tx...new gn...aspiring RN.

I have been reading on other boards that if the test cuts off at 75 it usually means you have gotten enough questions right to pass.
I do not know that for a fact maybe someone else on here can confirm it.
Good luck on it.

What is SATA?

Ok, I know it feels that way but it isn't possible to have 70% SATA (select all that apply). At most you only had 2 or 3 with the rest being pilot questions that DON'T COUNT (this is according to my Kaplan instructors). I hope that makes you feel a little bit better.
Everyone has had a similar experience to you because I promise that NO ONE leaves the NCLEX saying "yeah, I rocked it". Just try to relax if you can and don't worry about it until you know what your situation is. I know that is easier said then done but we've all been their with you. It sucks!!! I will pray that your 48 hours goes quickly!!! Good luck.
I had been looking on a medical abbreviation dictionary trying to figure out what SATA meant. Thanks for explaining it.
