I've been quietly reading everyone's "freak out" threads about the NCLEX, and I thought I would be remiss if I did not post one before taking this most important exam.
Today at 2pm est I take THE test. To be honest, I haven't studied as well as I would have liked, and I probably have answered 500 questions from Saunders (usually while watching TV and drinking a beer), and I read the first half of the book. I must admit that I've been a little hubristic going into this test thinking that because only 15% of the testers fail, I will do fine. Of course that may not really be the case, and the irony of today may just be that I fall flat on my non-RN face.
However, strictly for confidence reasons before taking this test, I will say here, in writing, in front of all you fine and wonderful people: I will pass today and become an RN. I will start my job on Sunday as a new nurse, and I will put this test behind me as those who have come before me did, and those who follow will.
Post-test freak out and test results to follow. Oh, and by the way, what is a ":hatparty"?
