   Yep, you're best bet is to call them yourself and ask. They will provide you will the necessary information, and it's bound to be accurate :)

4. 75 Questions pass or fail?

   shiner replied to bmoregirl's topic in NCLEX

   To tell you the truth, the amount of questions does not signify whether you passed or failed. I wish I could give you some positive encouragement, but good luck, I really hope you passed!

5. Dosage Calc

   shiner replied to Hypoxic's topic in NCLEX

   I think mine said to round to two decimal places, which means write 1.75, not 1.8. I'm almost positive it was this way, but then again I was stressed...

7. Is NCLEX difficulty level comprable to study guides?

   shiner replied to biretta's topic in NCLEX

   Personally, I don't want to scare you, but the questions that appear on the NCLEX will be very similar styles to those on the study guides, but I personally thought they were more difficult. Don't worry though, I see you are using Saunders and I thin...

8. Is Kaplan Overrated?

   shiner replied to Jack_ICU's topic in NCLEX

   I personally think it really depends on the person. I for one did it and did not pass my first NCLEX. It turns out it was because Kaplan seems to be not as content oriented. It does prepare you for question style and answering techniques. I seriously...

9. 200 ?'s on NCLEX-RN & waiting for results...

   shiner replied to NurseEmi's topic in NCLEX

   200 questions, whoo they really put you through a lot :) Congradulations on passing! I actually don't know anybody who got over that many questions, the most my friends got was 135! Strange exam...

11. NCLEX study tips

    shiner replied to weronika's topic in NCLEX

    From what I heard, it's best to go by Saunders. I did a little of everything, but mainly stuck to Kaplan and failed. What I hear is Kaplan is good for question technique, but sticking just to Saunders should help you pass! Good luck!

12. Took the NCLEX on Saturday

    shiner replied to shiner's topic in NCLEX

    It's good to hear someone with positive things to say :) I also get in phases where I can't imagine that they would throw me out, they would have to do something since I got hired. But then I get scared...I mean, such a place like Mayo..they can do w...

13. Feel terrible just rescheduled my exam!!

    shiner replied to CalypsoRN's topic in NCLEX

    I just recently found out I failed, it was my first time taking the exam. Hang in there, what I was advised to do is take a short break. That's the only way I could cope with this extreme stress. I feel sick when I think about it, and still do. There...

14. 76 questions OMG!

    shiner replied to nuberianne_RN's topic in NCLEX

    76 questions, well that's a number I haven't heard of before :) It may have been a glitch or something, don't worry, it's not an indicator that you did not pass! Good luck :)

15. JUST Took NCLEX w\ 75 Question

    shiner replied to Reidme's topic in NCLEX

    Reidme, considering it is very rare to hear somebody with such confidence after they took this exam, I can probably safely say you passed :) Good luck and congrats :)
