Took nclex for the second time 5/27/16

Published

Hi everyone,

i took oil the nclex yesterday for the second time and got 75 questions. I'm freaking out because I don't know how it went.

The first time I took it I failed at 166 and thought I passed. I came home and did the trick and it took my money. I am SO scared to do the trick again but I'm in CA so who knows when my results will post.

This time around I got 10-15 SATA, 1 exhibit, a lot of precautions (by the way do you keep the door closed in droplet precaution pt.?), some delegation, and a decent amount of prioritization (who would you see first, who would you call first etc.)

Also I'm nervous it's going to be awhile to get my results because it's Memorial Day weekend. Does anyone know if they post results on a Sunday? Amy thoughts would be appreciated. I just can't stomach the thought of failing the test at 75 when I got past that hurdle the first time around.

Thank you

It is the worst. Good luck to you! I had to wait around 4 weeks for my results the first time around. I'm just really hoping I passed and I'm so nervous about it. You just never know when you will get results and that's another nerve racking part. I doubt we will hear anything Monday because it's Memorial Day. Not sure about Sundays either.

First of all, we don't keep the door closed on droplet precautions. If not wearing PPE have to be 3 feet away from the patient, which means anyone in the hallway is out of range.

Second, Please take a deep breathe and do something... anything to get your mind off of it.

I freaked out when mine shut off at 75 questions too, I was begging the computer at 74 questions to "PLEASE not shut off... let me prove myself to you". Seriously... I don't know how I could've gotten the last questions correct with what was going on in my head. It's possible I didn't, but that they were the "practice questions" anyway.

I'm in Utah and my results (license) posted at 11:45pm the next day, so we can be pretty sure no government official was in the office posting them so the computers must talk to each other... so maybe Memorial Day won't matter???

Did you get your results yet? I'm still waiting. I'm curious to know if anyone got results today or tomorrow (Memorial Day)

I also took my NCLEX on the 27th, and it shut off at 75 questions. I keep checking the results and get nothing. So worried, I thought the questions were relatively easy, which is not a good nclex sign based on what I read.
