Just wanted to see if anyone took the boards on May 27th.. or sometime that week... I was hoping we could ALL wait in agony together... I'm from california... and it's only been exactly one week... we need words of encouragement and prayers as we wait 3 more weeks!!!!
my comp stopped at 85... and I'm so nervous.. I dream about recieving the letter .. then I think about it all day.. everyday .. then night comes and it starts all over... ahhhhhh!!!!
don't know what to do ... I'm really trying to relax and breathe... but I just can't bare the thought of taking that test again.. and waiting another 4 weeks....!!!!!

Well, congrats on getting it over with! I haven't taken the exam yet, but graduate on June 18th and hope to take NClex by the end of June/early July... would you mind sending along any info about what book you studied from and how closely the questions were to the ones on the exam? How many hours/questions do you think you did before taking it? Did you have a lot of questions from a certain area? Did you take a predictor exam, and if so, how did you do? I have mine on the 16th. Everyone I've talked to so far that graduated from the program I'm in said they all failed the predictor exam miserably, but passed NClex on the first try. Also, did you take a prep course? Any info to share with my classmates is greatly appreciated (I'm the class rep for my campus).
I'm sure the waiting sucks - just try to stay positive though! I'm sure you passed! Did you check out this website https://www.ncsbn.org ? It has a ton of info about how the test is graded etc... in case you didn't get the website in school. I thought the section called Exam Psychometrics was interesting.
Best of luck! Look forward to hearing any info you may want to share.

Soon2bRN, Good Luck on your test. I took my nclex on June 3, and am on pin and needles. My test also cut off on 85 questions. I felt the questions were very hard. I live in Mississippi and they do not participate in the quick results service. I am hoping I will not have to wait 4 weeks to know if I passed or failed. Let me know when you get your results and I will do the same.
