I passed!!!!!

So, just thought I'd post a little update on my life here since graduation. I officially graduated from college the first weekend in May. Similar to a lot of degrees, I'm not able to practice in my full capacity until I passed my state boards. The nursing boards are kinda weird in that there is a minimum of 75 questions and a maximum of 265 and you can have the minimum or the maximum or somewhere in the middle. I was lucky and only got 80 questions. The computer decides to shut off when it is 95% sure that you know your stuff or 95% sure that you don't know your stuff and you shouldn't be practicing. Like I said, I had 80 questions and finished my test in about an hour and 20 minutes in Eau Claire. I definately didn't feel confident walking out the doors Monday morning and similar to the majority of nursing graduates, I felt like I failed. I decided to go shopping that afternoon to make myself feel a little bit better. My results were posted this morning and I'm officially a full blown Registered Nurse. What an awesome feeling! I guess all that schooling paid off!
