Took NCLEX PN stopped at 85

Published

I took the NCLEX PN today and honestly I feel like I failed. I couldn't believe that I studied all of those "Saunders" questions and NCLEX is nothing like it. I was averaging 70-90% on the Saunders quizes and in some at 60%.The NCLEX was not like the Saunders quiz to me at all, I was in shock as I read the first NCLEX question that popped up and felt like I was automatically guessing on the FIRST question. Lots of SATA questions on NCLEX and not so many on Saunders but even if there were on Saunders I don't think it would have helped. I realized at the time of the test that it was kind of "you either know it, or you don't". They aren't kidding when they say two answers in the NCLEX are right and you have to pick the one that is the "most" right. It stopped me at 85, and probably like many of you I called the friends who had already taken it and asked their oppinions on whether I passed or not. The thing that has scared me the most is that I know the last question I had seemed too easy, I mean it seemed like asking a sixth grader how to spell "CAT" easy. Why did I have such an easy question if they were only supposed to get harder the higher the test questions. So, hmmmm I guess the reason for the post is that I did the "PEARSON VUE TRICK" about an hour or two after the test and I got the "good" pop up. Stating I can't reregister and to contact a board member. I have another friend who took the NCLEX and she told me not to do the trick because it isnt reliable, however I have yet to see anyone on here say that the trick didn't work for them. So instead of scrolling through over 700 pages of other posts I decided to start my own... do you think I passed based on the trick? Based on the last question? Or based on the number? I hate the fact that California doesn't give us quick results and makes us wait three to four weeks. Boo.

It took 5 weeks and 2 days. Ridiculous wait. Now I get to wait another 2 before I'm licensed due to an old speeding ticket.

Congrats to the both of you! I have no reason to doubt the Pearson Vue Trick... it worked for me when I passed. And it worked for my friend who failed.
