   bender73 replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX

   first off - i put a SMILE after the text to convey innocent "happy" debating!!! the "i bet you can't" was not said in anger or anything!!! i don't post here much because the last time i did was because i had strong feelings towards an issue that ot...

   i'm quite sure you know all the secrets i tell ya what, post EXACTLY how it works - including all the geeky math stuff. my bet, no offense, is that you can't or your reply will be some blanket statement about how you can't cause its too "involved" o...

   bender73 replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX

   thanks!!! ...somebody noticed :) my other theory on the secret of the nclex (i love conspiracy theories) is that you get credit for a wrong answer (as long as its still correct, but not the "best" answer). you follow? this is my theory only. the...

   bender73 replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX

   yes, but you're missing the point at the critical question #76 that tells you that you are close to the "passing" standard. if your test ends at #75 then you definitely know you either really passed or really failed. at #76 you can be assured that ...

   bender73 replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX

   well, my theory (and this is only interesting discussion) is that if you are "so close" to the passing standard at 75 then it would be hard to fail at 80. that would mean a dramatic shift from one end of the curve to the other in the CAT's program w...

   bender73 posted a topic in NCLEX

   what do you think of this logic? wouldn't the chances of passing (if you felt you bombed) be higher if the test shut off at 80-90 questions? i think this only because from what i read there are 3 options at question 75... - you passed - you failed -...

    bender73 replied to bender73's topic in General Nursing

    Damn you people read into things. "My gal" = possesive? Women say I love my guy or my guy is great. Well, my gal is great and I love her. Quite sensitive here, eh? There are 3 pages thus far in this thread and only a few posts with good advice, ...
