Hi everyone I took my nclex exam yesterday @ 2pm. I have some few questions to ask.

Title: How would I know if I pass the exam

1. If my computer shut down at 75 and the last question I had was about nursing ethics and I know I got the answer right. Will this be an add on factor on passing?

2. Most of my questions are Prioritization, SATA, lab results, drag and drop and only 1 PHARMA CALCULATION. Would this be a god thing?

3. If I will try the Pearson Vue trick, do I need to wait for 24 hours after my scheduled exam or after I had finished taking the exam?

4. If I decided to actually do PVT, what type of card do I need to use. A debit card or a credit card?

I will totally appreciate if you all can help me find answers to my questions. I am so eager to see a passing result and be able to add the title RN after my last name.

If you get the right answer to the ethic question on 79 or below you pass.

Forget questions 2-4, they are irrelevant. 75 questions is the minimum that you can get. Stopping at 75 means one of two things: either you did extremely well and passed or did so bad that it chose not to give you any more questions and you failed. If you did well in nursing school and went to a school with a high NCLEX pass rate then you passed. It is extremely unlikely that a good student would fail NCLEX so badly that the computer decided that despite the number of questions, you are not minimally competent.

No. You can get the question right but it must be written above the passing standard. Questions can be written below passing standard.

2. Most of my questions are Prioritization, SATA, lab results, drag and drop and only 1 PHARMA CALCULATION. Would this be a god thing?

This would be completely irrelevant because, as mentioned above, questions are written both above and below passing standard- all types of questions.

3. If I will try the Pearson Vue trick, do I need to wait for 24 hours after my scheduled exam or after I had finished taking the exam?

So many come here asking about the so called PVT. It is 100% unofficial, and there have been posts here from people for whom it was wrong. Simply wait for official results, and you'll be able to know with 100% certainty whether you passed or failed.
