I took my NCLEX-RN exam today for the the 4th time and I got 265 questions . I was sitting there in front of the computer for 5 full hrs. I do NOT know if I passed or not, but I did my BEST. I took the exam for CA board and of course we do not have quick results .
I had lotssssssss of priority questions, whom do you see first, nurse floating(pt allotment), equipment problem, select all that apply (3 or so), a simple math and couple of meds. A lot of tricky and twisted questions. I do not mean to scare anyone but thats how i felt.
I would like to THANK Suzzane for all her HELP and SUPPORT. I would also like to "thank" and wish everyone "good luck" in their life. I will keep you guys posted.
hope everyone had a goodweekend. Thanks a lot for ur support. Since I took my exam on friday, I may have to wait for another 2--3 days to see any updates on CA website (license verification).
I am in a very difficult situation bcoz my life is on hold and it is 3--4 yrs that i have been waiting for this license. At times, I do feel that i shd give it up, but its a tough decision. When i took the exam for the first time, I got 265, then again 265, 75 and now again 265???? isn't that crazy. I am NOT able to even think whether i will pass or not. It is so hard to expect anything untill i open my result mail and see.
Life has to go on ....no matter what. I shd find some way to keep my life going.
In CA, you can take nclex any # of times without taking any review. I am not sure abt other states.

Thank God! That's the way it should be. Review classes should be available, but I think the person that takes the test should be able to assess their own work and probably are the best judge of what they need to do to pass, or should know that they need help. I mean...who in the world would keep taking it and failing without turning around and saying, "Hey, I probably need some help with this!"
so far I didn't see my name in BON website, so i guess i failed again with 265 questions, thats so crazy to hear. At times, I do think to myself of why didn't the computer stop at some point rather than taking me for a full ride of 265???.
I am still waiting for my mail. Lets see what happens. At this point in my life, I don't think I have any more energy or patience to study and take it again. God Save me......

Don't lose hope yet - a few people haven't seen the license online, but then received the letter and passed. Hopefully if you're in CA you will get the letter in 10 days or so. Good luck!
