Retesting tomorrow and very nervous. I've studied all I can and have to just be confident now. I tested last year and had all 265 questions and had Near Passing in every category. I guess that's better than Below Passing Standard. BUT still wasn't good enough. Any recommendations for morning of testing?

I'll be retesting a few weeks and I also had near passing in every category! If I were you I would relax and be confident in myself and what I know. If you have studied your butt off and worked hard don't psych yourself out. You got this just be positive and focus on having that RN behind your name! Good luck and make sure you get plenty of rest!
Okay WELL, I took my test yesterday. Got ALL 265 questions, last question was a math question. Waited over 24 hours to do the PVT and got the "good" pop up. Honestly I don't feel there is any way I passed. Gotta wait til 8am tmrw to do quick results. In the mean time I will continue to stress out!
You passed! I know the emotions you are going through now and I'll be praying for you but I have no doubt you passed! Congrats in advance!

That is Passed. Its still accurate. Congrats.
Thank you guys!!! I am praying you all are right! This was my 2nd time taking it and the first time I did the trick and it charged my account so I'm trying to think positive!
What did you study this time around vs your first time? Did you feel better about your second test then your first one?
I did Kaplan the first time. The class and Qbanks along with the Saunders book and LaCharity book also. I have never felt "prepared" mostly because I have major test anxiety. I did great in nursing school but always had anxiety on exams and with nclex it was 100000 times more pressure. This time I focused on Uworld and LaCharity mostly. I have the mastery app and would do that from time to time. I kicked my studying into high gear the last month. Doing a minimum of 100 questions a day. I still had major anxiety the morning of but after getting in a settled I felt better. I had a mostly SATA and delegation questions. I left thinking for sure I failed. I still don't believe I could have passed so I'm dying for these quick results. I'm not buying the pop up.
Did you feel like UWorld really helped you on the test?
Yes I think it was better than all the others honestly. It was set up most like Nclex and the rationals were awesome! I didn't feel like I got much out of Kaplan. I felt like I was doing good this time around on the exam but I couldn't stop analyzing each question if they were above or below passing standard which was total nonsense! But I would recommend Uworld over all! If I failed this time I will focus on Uworld again.

ShayOlay, my best friend throughout nursing school tested the same day you did. She's in the same boat waiting for Quick Results tomorrow. I'm hoping I get to say congrats to you both tomorrow :)
