Took my nclex yesterday, feeling down

Published

I took the nclex yesterday. I was prepared. I went in feeling positive. I walked out 3 hours and 180 questions later feeling defeated. It was much much harder than I thought and I used ATI to prepare. I'm terrified that I failed and just looking for support. I don't use the good popup trick because I cannot afford the $200 if I did fail and it takes my money. So I wait...

If it helps, I think we all walk out of the test feeling like complete failures. I know I did! I didn't do the trick because it's wrong just often enough that it wouldn't have reassured me on bit to see a "good" pop up. So, I waited. And scheduled myself for all the work I could. I know it's common advice to go relax and have fun, but I just couldn't. At least while working, I couldn't obsessively check for my license number over and over. Hang in there. You'll know all tomorrow.

I don't even know how to check for my license number. And thanks, I appreciate your kind words.

Hugs! I left the test on 9/5 feeling as if I didn't know anything as well. I was like, I have failed at life. I am ashamed. Then I got my quick results and my fears were alleviated.

I just took the NCLEX on the 21 of august and walked out feeling like a complete failure. I convinced myself i had failed and also didn't want to try the trick. I finally got the courage to check my quick results and found out I had passed! From what I've gathered just about everyone walks out of that test feeling like they failed, but don't count yourself out until you know your results :)

Whatever state you registered in should have a website, and you should already have an account with it, as you have gotten an ATT and taken NCLEX. Or check Nursys.com "Quick Confirm." I checked both obsessively, but Pearson Quick Results were faster (4th of July week).

Yes I found it, no # yet.
