Took NCLEX today...

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I took it in June with no preparation at all (underestimated it, ugh) and failed at I think 230 questions. Was near passing standard. Got a LOT of questions about medication and a lot of exhibitions, some meds, some anatomy, few calculations.

This time I studied for maybe 2 hours and I got 165 questions and then it shut off. I got the last two wrong and most of the questions seemed (to me) to have been easier than last time. A lot of priority questions, some meds, some calcs, and a fair amount of nutrition. Oh and TONS of infection control. Could I have done WORSE than last time??

Also, how accurate is the "Pearson Vue trick"?? I just tried it and it seems to indicate I passed but I am extremely skeptical...

Thoughts appreciated!!

Specializes in Emergency Department.

From my understanding, if you're getting the "good popup" and the results say "delivered" then you passed. It is possible to not get the good popup and still pass. So, I'm going to say Congratulations!!!!
