Well, it's either all done or a long way to go. I took the NCLEX RN (boards) today. I can't decide how I feel about it though. My test cut off at exactly 75 questions, which I've heard through the grapevine that is a good sign.
The way the NCLEX works is that you test until you either pass or fail. The minimum amount of questions you can answer is 75 with a maximum of 275. Once you begin the test you are asked a certain level of difficulty of questions. If you get the question right (which you don't know if you did or not) the test will keep getting a little harder till you miss one. Then you drop down a level. The goal is to maintain a certain degree of difficulty throughout the test.
Anyway, there was nothing on the test that I haven't seen before, but the selection of answers to choose from were. A lot of the answers were kind of obscure, not what you are expecting when you read the question. I don't know if that make sense or not but that's the best way to describe it. I felt a huge wave of relief when that test cut off. I specifically prayed that I would not have to go all the way through the test. When I hit question number 74 I just asked God to please let it end and He did!
So now I'm having to endure probably the longest 48 hours of my life thus far. Exactly 48 hours from the time you finish your test the results are available online. My plan is to try to remain busy until then. Unfortunately, my "busy" time doesn't begin till Wed evening..... after I get my results!! Something tells me BB and DQ are getting dragged all over town for the next couple of days! If I don't leave the house I'll sit here with this computer in my lap checking every few minutes to see if I am a rare exception to the rule and got my results early. A person could go crazy like this!!!!!!
Anyway, think I'll go crazy somewhere else for awhile and give your poor people a break!!
