I just took the NCLEX yesterday, (Feb.3) and I went all the way to 258 and THEN it shut off...finally! Just wondering if there's anybody that went that long and passed. I just never heard of anyone going til 258 and shut off! Usually its 75, 116, 153, 210 or all the way to 265!!! Just need some encouragement..I'll be finding out tomorrow..same day I start my new job!!! STRESS!!

Thanks, joy:eek:

good luck on your first day

Joy, sending you lots of hugs and warm wishes. Let us know how you do. I'm sure you'll be posting your success soon!

Congrats on the new job!

Hi JoyNICU,

All I can pass along is that no number determines your passing or failing except for 75. If you get 75 you could have done either very well or very poorly. There are no other guarantees. Even going to 258, which by the way is not out of the norm, is not any indication.

I wish it were different and we all knew that if you got 167, 211, or 258 that you automatically passed, but the CAT just doesen't play that way.

I wanted say I'm praying for ya and I hope to hear your post soon that you passed!

Hang in there and,

God Bless,
