if you get 85 ?s, how many do you need to get right to pass? not sure what percentage(although i think its 95% but i am not positive)

Re: a quick question

According to the NCSBN people normally get 50% right and 50% wrong. The NCLEX is not graded like the exams we received in school. As long as you get more "HIGHER LEVEL" questions correct (application/analysis) then "LOWER LEVEL" (comprehension/knowledge) you will pass. REMEMBER, you must consistently stay above the passing standard in order to pass. So basically, a pass/fail is determined by the difficulty of the questions you answer correctly.
