Hello everyone just joined today, this is a great website to help relieve your anxiety while waiting for the NCLEX results. It's good to see so many people feeling the same way I do. I took my NCLEX this monday it stopped at ~170. I know everyone keeps saying the number isn't an indication of your results but it still makes me nervous. I started tripping after #75 because the majority of my classmates stopped at #75. I had a lot of priority questions, a couple math questions, and maybe 10 or less pharmacology questions. Most were what patient would you see first type questions. My girlfriend who took the NCLEX at the same time as me ran out of time at the 264th question so we are both extremely anxious to get the results.

Welcome and good luck
Yeah I know it still says updated last 08/11 on the boards website. I was up late last night, at 3 am the site said it was updating but when I woke up it still said last updated on 08/11.
Thank You Silverdragon, I feel like I can use a little luck.
My girlfriend and I subscribed to learningextension.com for 5 weeks and wasted a lot of time reading. In retrospect I feel like we should have invested most of our time doing Q & A. Also we read Mosby 2nd edition flash cards, which were relatively easier. EVERYTHING we studied for was easier than the NCLEX. So many of the priority questions could have been two answers for me after I deducted 2 out of 4. So, the NCLEX left me feeling numb and like I failed.
i actually think the reverse. i spent a lot of time doing questions that i lost track of reading/reviewing content. when i took the exam, even the simplest things like assessing apical pulse drew a blank from me. i know now i got it wrong. i got so many easy questions wrong. kicking myself now that i didnt review over content...
Yeah I see what you're saying. Since there are so many priority questions............the bigger your knowledge base is the better off you'll be. Hopefully we passed. All the knowledge we attained through theory & clinical in nursing school will hopefully be sufficient enough to pass!!!

I took my nclex-rn on the 11th also. I went on the pearson vue website and loged back in, clicked on quick results, payed $8 bucks, and they posted my result. Good luck to you all. but if you can't wait to know and you took your test with pearson, the results are in.
Unfortunately California doesn't allow the quick results, but thanks for telling me. So, did you pass enursesf?
Nope I blew it. Feeling horrible. First I couldn't sleep waiting for results now I can't sleep cause I'm so frustrated with myself. Anyway Good Luck to you all.
That's alright, keep your head up..............you'll pass next time. Try not to beat yourself up over it, I know that's easy for me to say.
