Tested today . . . Wondering if there is any hope.

[tattooednursie, LVN]

Today I tested for the first time. It seemed that the test was throwing illnesses and drugs that I have never even heard of at me the whole time, in fact I think they must have just invented these illnesses and drugs just in time for me to test. (HAHA)

Anyway there were a lot of dosage questions also. I think I did okay on those. My test shut of at 85 (NCLEX-PN). I know that does not indicate a pass fail . . . I have a gut feeling that I totally bombed it. I'm trying to feel optimistic here. I really want to know . . . In this situation what are my odds knowing that I probably got more than a few wrong, but knowing i got a few right too . . . . . . . . *Pulls hair out and screams* I just wanna know!!!!! LOL

:uhoh21:

You probably passed. If you know you got some right you're in good shape. Remember, this isn't a traditional test where you need to get x percentage correct to pass.

Now go relax. You'll get your results in 48 hours, unless you're in California, where they seem to enjoy torturing people who just tested.

Thanks. Yep I am in Cali . . . I get tortured for about a month.

So . . . ummm I do not fully understand how they are scored.

Future RN Mandi, :nono:stop pulling your hair and stop screaming.

Keep the faith and stay strong,

Good luck on your results.

God answers prayers all the time!!

I can't explain it well, but it's you get a question. Answer it wrong. Get another questions of the same difficulty level. Get it right. The next questions is a bit more difficult.

As long as they keep getting harder and have you muttering, "What the hell??!!!" as they pop up you're in good shape.

[tattooednursie, LVN]

Well they defiantly had me muttering things . . . I had ear plugs in . . . so I hope I wasn't muttering too loud . . . Others may have thought I had turrets syndrome. I'm sure they kept a recording of me for personal entertainment if I was speaking the words that came to mind. Ok . . . so I guess thats a good sign.

[SuesquatchRN, BSN, RN]

I'm cracking up! I have this image of a muttering, ear-plugged, maniacal little test-taker....

I'm sure you did fine.

:)

Future RN Mandi, I will keep you in my prayers. I also took mines today but I don't feel like I passed but what am I to do but pray. At this point, it is in God's hands. So please keep me in your prayers and I will do the same for you.

*Sighs*....wow, what a day. I took my NCLEX-RN boards today, and I am at a loss about what I think, and how I did. I only took 86 questions, and am unsure. I wasn't anxious or upset after taking the test. Pretty at-peace, actually. I didn't know all of the answers, but I tried my best. I am afraid I failed, though... I already have a job, that I have been working in as a graduate nurse until I took my boards. I will be devistated if I failed and lose my job. Arrrgh.... I wish I had some sort of indication if I passed or not.

You are totally right. Heres a proof.

"He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." - Matthew 17:20

You'll be fine, im sure of that. Im still waiting for my exam and i feel the same way you do. I didnt know if i choose the correct answer and the exam was really hard. God bless to us and to all who's waiting for their results.
