I just scheduled my exam awhile ago and finally taking it this September 15, 2008.
I was looking for the September 2008 Support Group and found their is none in existence so i figured to start one.
I am currently on Saunder's 4th Ed. and some other references like, Exam Cram, Illustrated Study Guide for the NCLEX-RN Exam, Prioritization, Delegation Assignment by Linda LaCharity and other Q and A books by Saunder's and Mosby.
But i am focusing more on Saunder's, i just like to have other references to understand topics which i am weak in.
I wasn't a very good student before or wasn't that much focus with my studies while in school. That's why i am very anxious now with my upcoming exam.
Now I am giving my best in my review and hoping and praying that i may pass it on the first try.
I really want and dreampt of becoming an RN and finally i am a test closer to becoming one.
it really is an amazing feeling! God is good...i felt his presence with me the entire time i studied and the day of the test till today! if you believe...you will achieve!
thanks again to all of you for your support. you all have kept me sane through all this madness. I will continue to pray for all of you...

I just took my NCLEX-RN on Tuesday still pending my results. This is my second time I had the whole 265 the first time. Now I got 75.....one extreme to the next. I used Kaplan the first time and then purchased the NCSBN after failing the first time to keep up on my reviewing. I like many others am a mother of 3 wonderful boys...........and i want to close this chapter in my life, and focus on being a new nurse and spend more time with my husband and children. This time around all I can say was to me it seemed like a completely different test than the first. Oh yeah and a much shorter time spent taking this test. I also started a new job in July as an intern and had to step down untill I pass. So please keep me in your prayers I should more than likely know tomorrow. I have prayed and prayed and asked others to do the same. Now its in Gods hands. GOOD NEWS!!! PLEASE.
I have a question for you guys...I'm taking my NCLEX for the second time next week. Do the level of questions get harder the second time around or are they about the same as the first time?
I've also heard that if one gets a lot of SATA questions that means that you don't know the content very well, or are getting a lot of wrong.. Any thoughts?

SATA is just a format style of question, it could be used to test content, critical thinking, etc. Just because you get alot of them doesn't mean you are doing very good or very bad.

The questions will be different from the first time but the computer does not know how many times you have taken the test, you will always be treated as if it is the first time. SATA is just another format of questions and people pass with many or none
