I took my boards on the 7th and I am positive I failed...... I got 175 questions and I felt as if I was guessing the WHOLE time, the meds they asked about I never even heard of or at least I didn't remember them, and with the calculations I didn't realize there was a calculator on the screen until my last calculation question!! I'm so down, and I cried the whole drive home:crying2:. I mean, there is prolly 2-3 ppl in every class who unfortunately fail, and I'm certain that I'm one of them, nursing school was very hard for me, I was also pregnant the whole time and I only managed to get "C's" except for clinicals. Does the PVT really work? I have never heard of it until I got on here.... Opinions welcome...

It works. Trust me. I failed the first time and it lets me register. Now that I pass, it would not let me

I also took the NCLEX on the 7th but i only had 75 questions. I feel like i knew nothing and guess on everyone. I had one math and the rest were drugs and priorizting. Does PVT work? What if you get a pop up that doesnt say anything about board of nursing etc... it says the criteria doesnt match try again??THis is happening to my friend and its right before the credit card page. No matter what she changes on her yes and nos it wont let her find her school or anything. HELP?? It just wont let her go to that credit card page (which im hoping is good).

like everyone said, just try to stay positive. and if the your fears are confirmed and you did fail:crying2:.. hey, its not the end of the world,( i know at first it feels like it) that just means you study harder on your weak areas and take it again. i have rescheduled my test twice because i was afraid to fail... and my husband told me, "hon, dont be afraid of failure. if you do fail, you wont be the first grad to fail her/his nclex!! what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger!" :di can also relate to nursing school being hard... it was hard for me also. in my second time in taking med/surg ii, my father had a stroke.. and being an only child, it was hard for me. it had seemed like the whole year after that was a waste for me in school because each class i took, i had to retake it, which meant that i was even further behind than all my friends. and plus, when i did retake them later that year, i was just barely passing with c's. because i had failed so much, i was faced with being kicked out of the program so i had to struggle with my last few classes i had left so i didnt fail anymore of them. but, for everyone who had a lot of personal issues that they were trying to deal with while in school and still were able to make it through nursing school (as you and i did) just shows that we had the determination to finish school and become a nurse!!!! but just keep your head up and dont give up.. i mean, if we were able to make it through nursing school, which is pretty dang difficult, i know we can pass state boards!!!!!:redpinkhe:heartbeat:redbeathe
And yes, I have heard that the PVT really does work!!!!

the PVT does work!
you will all PASS the boards. If you werent successful focus on your weaknesses and prepare for the next attack! take it slow and allow your mind to sink in the rationales
remember in nursing, when you implement, you evaluate, and if your evaluation comes short of the goal, you reassess and implement again until you meet that goal :)
