Took NCLEX today.....265 Questions!

Oh my goodness!! NCLEX is not what I imagined, but much worse. I feel that all the books

I used did not help or prepare me for this! You know, it is funny, because I had it set in

my mind that I was going to do only 75 questions, well maybe that is where I started off wrong.

I did 265 questions, and by the end of the day I needed to get some comfort food and just

lay on my couch and sleep. I was angry, disappointed, and frustrated that I couldn't feel

confident about this test. I haven't cried yet, because I feel there is hope. I just felt a sense

of failure, because most people pass at 75 or so many questions. Keep focused on the test

and as long as you are answering questions you are still in the race. I wish everyone well, and

that they don't feel like I did today. I will keep you posted on if I passed or failed. I should

find out by Friday. One of my class mates passed with 265 questions, but mostly others

are passing with 75 questions. :cry::crying2:
