I Passed at 85!
This was a rollercoaster — not because of the exam itself, but because of everything leading up to it. Studying every day while constantly feeling like it still wasn't enough. If I could've paid someone to remind me daily that I was doing enough, I would have — because that mental battle was just as hard as any practice question.
Social media hyped it up to be the hardest exam ever, and honestly? It wasn't.
The exam wasn't extremely difficult. Sure, I knew I was getting some questions wrong, and the questions were challenging — but in a fair way, not an impossible one. I think what made it feel more manageable was consistently using my NCLEX prep resources and having friends who reminded me every day that it's just an exam, not the end of the world.
If you're out there studying right now, you got this! You don't need to grind through 100-150 practice questions a day. Be consistent, and know that 30 questions is enough. Quality over quantity.
If anyone has questions, I'm free to answer them.
