Second Nclex Attempt

This time around I got 75 questions. My first attempt I went the whole way (265). I really do not know what to feel. I used UWorld this time. Finished with a 68% average and thought I could take on anything. But man. I got around 15 SATA, no calculations, and very very difficult questions. I mean, so difficult that I was excited to see priority or SATA questions.

I'm not even sure why I'm posting lol. Just want to thank the forums for keeping my head straight and giving me something to do during study breaks these past few difficult months. I really really really hope I did not fail or else I'm moving to the ocean to live with the water people.

Note: Nclex asked me FOUR times about a diet concerning chronic kidney failure. I forgot that a low protein diet is included in the teachings. Why would they be so cruel to punish me if I didn't get it the first time?

    Too scared to try it to be honest lol. The select all that apply questions were very difficult. I thought after using UWorld I'd be able to take on any SATA but these were like purposely difficult. Towards the end they started getting a little easier

    Ah, yes. The feel of defeat. Most people often leave the test center feeling like they failed with all those hard questions. But it turns out to be the opposite because they actually passed. If you stopped at 75 questions, there's a good chance that you passed, especially with the progressively increasing difficult questions.

    Seriously that's how I felt. I got a couple questions regarding the same topic and was like...oh no, I certainly didn't learn this in nursing school! But I must have known more than I thought I did since I passed. Apparently this feeling of thinking the questions were really hard is a good sign! Good luck to you, and even if you don't pass you just need to try again. Plenty of people on this forum have taken the NCLEX more than twice and they're still here to talk about it!
