I took the Nclex this morning and it stopped at 75 questions. I didn't get any math, mainly priority, isolation, drug side effects and 4 choose all that apply. Unfortunately PA doesn't participate in Pearson's quick unofficial results, so I will have to wait until the BON posts it on the website. I pray I don't have to wait more than a week, my nerves wouldn't be able to handle it.

Hi NJStudentnurse
I took it today also in PA, my test sounds like yours. Were you at the Horsham site taking the test?
Good luck to both of us

dear denise,
firstly good luck with your exam- i wish you well.
i recently qualified as an orthopaedic trauma nurse in england and i plan to move to the US- your nclex exam looks to be harder than our nursing studies- was it harder or easier than you thought? our training is supposed to be really good and rated as some of the best in the world- but to be honest i found it does not prepare a person for the role of a nurse in a busy unit like mine- do you have any advice regarding the nclex- i'm hitting the books on days off- there's no end to the studies!!!
again- good luck and best wishes

Hi!
I thought the NCLEX was weird and hard. Some things I feel I had no idea on and others I thought hey I know this. This might sound strange but the "right" answer never seemed to be there it was more like the "best" answer. There isnt much advice I can give, I dont feel anyone can fully study for the boards, I would get the Saunder's NCLEX review book and do questions and more questions and more questions.
Good luck to you
thks denise- weird and hard- it sounds grim- i'll keep hitting the study aids- thks for the literature recommendation- i see i will have no life for the next year- working on the unit by day studying by night- remind me why we do this?
take care of yourself, have fun and don't work too hard

Denise yes I was at the Horsham site at 8am. I hope we both find out soon that we passed.
