Third time test taker (yeah I know....)

Good luck

Sarah-- I will be praying for you!!!

goodluck.

Good Luck Sarahn!! Sending positive thoughts your way.

Thanks..Im reading older posts..and im getting myself nervous because of the drug questions and the lack of SATA questions (i had two). I'm hearing thats a death sentence...

good luck! hope you make it this time! i myself will be taking it for the 3rd time also on the 23! yeah 3rd times a charm!! God bless:saint:

Sarahn, the lack of SATA is NOT a death sentence!! They are only a question format. Just because they are SATA does not automatically make them higher difficulty. Many of us here have passed with few SATA. I would think more positively about the priority questions you got. No one can know or second guess how they have done. Think positive thoughts and know that we are sending very positive vibes your way. Good Luck!!!

good luck...I didn't get that much SATA and passed so that doesn't matter!!! Third times a charm!!! wishing you the best!!!

I took my boards for the third time today..yes third. The first time I took them I had to answer all 265 questions...the second time they stopped me at 75 (I did worse! oy). Today they stopped me at 90-something. I was shocked they turned off my computer I didnt pay attention to the number. I'm scared crapless. Part of me wants to think..ok..they didnt stop me at 75....so I didnt excell..but I didnt suck so hard like the last time...part of me thinks...if I did that bad..wouldnt they have let me keep answering questions since i had like 170-ish questions left to go.

In case you are curious. I had 4-5 math questions..no drip rates...two put things in order...two SATA and a TON of prioritizing questions..OH! and virtually every drug I got...I never heard of before.. i really tried hard to prepare for the prioritizing questions. I have to wait until Tu-Wed to find out if I failed again or If there is a God..passed. UGH. Hopefully it's meant for me to be a nurse..I'm not sure I want to do this again.

Good luck to you and the # of SATA does not really matter. I wish you the best. I will be retaking in about a month and i'm having positive thoughts. However, i will not give up shall i not pass and you shouldn't either.

Good luck again!!!

How did you do?

As a third time test taker myself (finally passing on the third time), I wish you the very best of luck...

as far as S.A.T.A questions go, I believe there is a correlation to the number you get anf the pass rate, however..priority also counts as an "eqaul" level questions so.... if you said "i only had a few SATA queations and barely any priority" , yeah, that doesnt look good, BUT you had lots of priority so i say you did well. SATA and/or Priority are on the "same level" question of difficulty.

3rd time was my good luck charm, so im passing it to you !
