There have been many that have passed with that number. You are just going to have to wait for the letter, there is nothing that you can do to speed things up.

I FAILED ONCE AT 85 AND I PASSED WITH 205, SO IT COULD BE EITHER OR. ITS ACTUALLY GOING TO TAKE YOUR 60 QUESTIONS BEFORE THE ENDING OF THE TEST AND AVERAGE OUT IF YOU WERE BELOW OR ABOVE PASSING .,, BUT GOOD LUCK !

That's only if you run out of time. For more information about NCLEX scoring, go to www.ncsbn.org and click on the 2006 Candidate Bulletin.

do they really take the last 60 questions of your exam and average it out in order to determine whether or not you passed?

No- for how the test gets 'graded' or scored, take a look in the NCLEX forum. There is a really lengthy post there, from someone who really is knowledgeable about how the test is computed and conducted individually for test takers. It will explain it in more detail than you will ever need to know!

one of my friends in nursing school took it until she ran out of time before answering all of the questions, and she still did pass. Hang in there, I know it's soooo hard to wait.
