I just took the boards and got 228 ques.

I would appreciate any input from people who either passed, or failed, and if you got such a high # of ques?

Does it mean I got enough right? or Does it mean I got so many wrong that getting the next 37 right wouldn"t matter?

I'm quite scared!!!

yeah!!!! I passed!!!! Thanks to all of you for you input.... it took 2 weeks to find out! 2 weeks of hell, esp since my friend who took the boards the same day found out in 5 days!!! But it's over...Thanks Again!!!

I just took my boards end of feb. and got 263 questions and still failed. I did pass my LPN with flying colors though. I have a friend whowas in my similar situation and finally passed. would've been nice if my state sent me my license and said "oops" it doesn't make sense that some people pass at 78 questions and some people pass a 206 questions but can fail at 263 or 85. I say, if you can just graduate from nursing school-you've passed!

congrats. to you and good luck!!!

Hello,

Just wanted to let you know that two of my classmates took the full exam and passed their boards. I know it is easier said than done, but try not to totally stress over this. You will know in a relatively short time whether you passed! It is a true accomplishment to graduate from nursing school, enjoy some down time while you can. Also, one of my very good friends, who went to nursing school much sooner than I, failed her boards the first time around. Now, 8 short years later she is running an intensive care unit. I hope this helps!

Because in real life, you can't skip ahead to the next patient and hope they give you a clue as to how to save the first patient.
