I just took the NCLEX PN and the test shut off at 85 questions. I felt like I studied all the wrong material and felt as though almost every question I had to guess at. I think I knew for sure about three questions, but I know I got at least that many wrong for sure (from looking it up later), everything else was best guess. I got 1 dosage and calculation question, about 35 SATA questions, no delegation questions, a few medication questions, about 4 prioritizing questions and no ECG questions (everything I studied I didn't get tested on...). I'll find out in two days how I did, but I felt like I didn't know anything. Does anyone have any advice for what to do in that limbo world of not knowing what your results were? I've been studying and praying for this exam for so long, but I felt so useless while taking it

Moved to NCLEX Exam and Programs forum

Just checked my BON website and I am on there with an active LPN license and license number. Looks like I passed!!!!! (you can't have those without passing, right?)

My quick results aren't up yet but within 22hours of taking my test I popped up on my State's Board of Nursing website with an active license, expiration date for my license and license number.

The only thing that calmed me down was praying. I owe everything to Mother Mary and Kateri Tekakwitha! Everything!!! Five questions into the test I was sure I was going to fail, and fail hard. Literally I believe I only passed because God wanted me too as I felt like I knew nothing, but He helped me through nursing school and He helped me through this test and I have the best friends in Heaven that I could ever ask for and I am so happy!!!!!!!!! God is GOOD! And I know that He will continue to be with me throughout nursing, especially because now I'm dedicating everything I do to Mary as a nurse (as I told myself I would do)!! So happy!!

(If I had failed I planned to look at it this way: at least nothing changes. I can't go forward, but I'm not going backwards. It just means I get a longer summer vacation and I don't have to go to school anymore, I can just devote time to studying instead and now that I know what the questions are like I will be so much more prepared next time. God has been with me and will continue to be with me and I don't have to worry about anything. I hope that helps anyone reading this.)

Congrats to you. God is good all time. I wish you the best on your nursing endeavor. I'm taking my PN boards in a few days. Where the meds only listed by generic names or both generic and trade. What state did u take your test in? thanks in advance

Wow that was quick! And lucky! I got my result after the 48 hours, and it took 10 days for my BON to post my license number. I'm in the middle of an online class. The day after I took the NCLEX I needed to finish an assignment. I honestly did not know what I was writing as I could not even concentrate. Longest 48 hours of my life so far.
