Took NCLEX today

Published

Hi everyone! Thanks for all of your support. Today was the day that I finally tested. I can tell you that I feel horrible as does everyone I am sure. I had anywhere between 90-95 questions when that thing shut off and of course I am postiive that I failed. From number 76 until it shut off was horrible and I found myself guessing at everyone of them. I am also positive that I got my last question wrong (I looked it up). Anyone know if there is any truth to that myth? I had 2 select all that apply, 3 math questions, tons of priority, a few delegation, and a bunch of which patient would you see first. Well it's all out of my hands now, it's time to play the waiting game. I honestly don't feel that I have any hope in the world because if I was above the passing mark it would have shut off at 75 and for it to shut off between 90-95 when I know that it all went down hill from question number 75, just leaves me with no hope what so ever. I also know of a bunch of easy questions that I missed. Oh well I'll let everyone know my results as soon as I find them out. Thanks for being so supportive.

Hey Jen! I don't know why I was thinking you took it yesterday. But I'm sure you did fine today! I was the same way after question 75 ..... with each question after that I was wondering when it would shut off. No, there is no truth about getting the last one right/wrong .... it doesn't matter. It sounds like you got lots of priority/which patient would you see first .... that's a really good sign, those are the harder questions, I got a lot of those too.

Just try to enjoy the fact that it's OVER with! Go out and do something fun :)

Don't worry. I was POSITIVE that I failed at 75. I felt like I had to guess on that whole dang test! AND I PASSED! Seriously, everyone feels like they failed. I was already putting in applications at burger joints! No Joke! I am sure you will do fine and that you will be a great nurse! Bless you and I will pray for you. Good luck!

Thanks again everyone. I jut checked the BON wedsite again and no word yet, but it hasn't even been 48 hours yet. Well gotta go to work now and work twelve hours, so I probably won't find out until tonight at midnight. Thanks for your prayers and well wishes.

Jen, I can understand you today better that yesterday, after I took this monster, I hate the type of questions that i had, never seem for me, in the reviews, but this is the Nclex at the step that we have to climb!

This my first day in the post-Nclex shock, but I know for sure that I failed, plenty drugs, prioritizing and select all that apply!

I wish you the best

Keep posted!
