The Stress......NCLEX!

Nurses New Nurse

Published

I finished the NCLEX exam on Monday and the stress of waiting by the computer checking for results is KILLING ME!

The test was nothing like I have ever taken before. A ton of delegation and nursing priority questions. I had none of the "new" types of question I had prepared for, so I hope everything is okay.

The test stopped at 175 questions. The nurses in the ED where I work said that was a good sign and that I did well and not to let the wait get to you. Last night at work I was checking the web site like every 45-60 minutes for the entire shift. Each time I walked away, they asked if I knew any results.

Friends of mine who where there with me, either had 75 questions or 275 questions. So I think I am okay. I feel great now that the exam is over and now I am just waiting. Now the nurses in the ED are giving me more respect and responsibilities at work and not just using me as a clinical associate to push BP and temperatures.

Thanks for letting me vent my stress and happiness that I finished. I will write back with my results.

Congratulations, Gary, on making it through the NCLEX exam! Chances are you passed. I hope you find out soon as well. Keep yourself busy and pamper yourself a little bit the next couple of days. You deserve it after all the hard work you're doing. :) I'm still waiting for my results here in CA and it takes forever here.
