I took my NCLEX-PN yesterday morning (1/7/17) at 8 AM. It shut off on me at 85 questions and after 1 hour and 20 minutes. Those questions were hard! At least half of my questions were SATA. I tried the PVT this morning, 24 hours later and I got the "good popup". I keep thinking to myself that I am only getting this popup because it is the weekend, and I took my test on a Saturday so they didn't have time to score it. Does anyone know if the PVT will still work if you took your test on a Saturday?

It works regardless of when you took the test. Feeling like the questions were hard, and answering a lot of SATA probably indicated that you were being given questions with a higher degree of difficulty. Congratulations!

Everyone I knew who passed NCLEX the first time came out of there saying "WTH?!?!?! That was hard...I have no idea how I did."

Thank you! I am really hoping! I can't wait til 8 AM tomorrow morning to check the quick results! I felt like I was having a panic attack after my test yesterday!

Number of SATA questions means nothing, could be higher or lower. OP look at it this way, you have the minimum number of questions and they seemed hard. Either you did an awesome job and got through it in the lowest number of questions possible or you screwed it up so badly there was no hope whatsoever giving you more questions. Sounds like you did well, good luck and pre-congratulations!

Found out this morning that I passed! I am now an LPN. Next step is to finish my degree to become an RN! Thank you all for your encouragement!
