Stopped at 85

justwannab09 · Jul 15, 2009

I totally agree with you. Waiting 48 hrs has basically put my life on hold. Here's what I did. Once I got home from the NCLEX RN, I logged into my pearson account, and my exam status said "delivered successful". I put all the required info (exam, school, date of graduation, and state board), when I hit the next button I rcvd a pop up that stated "....you have already scheduled.....contract your board of nursing". From the testimonies on the thread, I passed. To scared to scream it out, will get my quick results tomorrow.

Some of my classmates (approx. 8) has used this trick, and its worked for each of them.....I am praying that the trick continues to work for me.

Pls let me know how your test went.

I got the same thing about contacting the boards when i tried to reregister.

Wishing you and me all the luck we can get. :nuke:

I'm sorry, I'm just now beginning to prepare seriously for my NCLEX. Earliest I'll be able to take it is end of Sept/first of Oct. My question is: what does SATA mean?

Thanks

Select all that apply

SATA means select all that apply. There's gonna be more than 4 choices, then you click on the answers you think applies for what is being asked.

Take your time studying. Dont rush on taking your test. I studied saunders, lippincott and prentice hall books. I also studied of some ncles reviewers they sell online. Sound like a lot but really, i didnt finish all the questions on those cds. I borrowed them from friends who took the test previously and installed it on my computer. The best part of it is your not stuck on just one type of review. I focused on surgical, meds, psyche and o.b but only few showed on the test. I got more questions about "what would you do as a nurse if ...?" and prioritization. Everybodys test is different and I was working full time as a cna while i was in school till i took my boards. It was a hard year and now it came to its final test, whether i'll pass my boards or not. Im really hoping I passed. If not, I'll move on and retake it. Its really stressful but we all have to move on. Some good nurses on the field didnt pass the first time. Who knows.

GOODLUCK to all who took the test... Lets pray for each other. :wink2:

hi dimaano22.. i just took my exam today and felt horrible about it. Some people told me that 2-3 days after the nclex you can go to brn website and check the "permanent license verificatio".. type in your name .. if you pass.. you will see your name.. brn ca update their licensing everyday.. i hope it helps you... good luck

I wish I can but I don't think CA does that. I've tried the trick though. Its my only hope... Good luck to you too. :nuke:

can you share the images or unfamiliar topics you encountered? Im so nervous. Il be having my exam tomorrow

Im sorry for the late response. Im wishing you goodluck.

I got chest tube images and chart images and you click on which order wiukd you question the doctor. I also had one drag where you have to arrange the steps on putting sterile equipments on a sterile field. My test was hard according to what i've been reading on the posts that other people had on theirs. Im wishing myself a goodluck too.

GREAT NEWS FROM ALL OF YOU. I will start preparing in August for a January date, which I still have not scheduled. I am registered for the Kaplan complete and I also have the FEURS CDs. Do you recommend to do both and add some books or should these be fine? Thank you...
