Wow... it sounds like you are carrying a heavy burden with this secret. I am still hoping that you'll get the 'pass' very soon.

Keep the faith 28! I prayed for you. I'm waiting with you took mine again today Oct. 4th... Keep smiling

don't feel bad. i had to take boards twice. got the biggest cold sore ever. i took all 265 and it took me 3 hours. i was the last person to leave the test site. this supervisor i know had to take it 5-6 times. so don't be discouraged. take the desiginated "breaks" and don't stress about it the night before you take it. just relax. good luck again.

thanks guys.........I will be praying for everyone who will be taking it or waiting for the results....................

Wishing you all the best!

i'm sure you all passed...after the second time i took it, you just "know"...i think if you don't pass the first time, it humbles you..it makes you a better person...or that's how i felt...if it's meant to be, then it will happen...it will...God wants you to be a nurse to heal the sick...he will make it happen...good luck

Hello Nursing28,

Don't feel so down, there might be hope after all. You still didn't receive the result. I had same experience as yours, took the NCLEX-RN exam last Sept. 16. I was hoping the computer will stop at 75 but it gave me more difficult Q's then after around 90Q's easier Q's followed until the computer shut down at 120. I know for sure, I got the last question right, and I passed!!! If you remember the last Q before the computer shut down and if you got it right, you still have a chance that you made it. Believe me. Think positive and continue to pray!

I hope you did better than you thought. Good luck to you.

Let's try not to worry - I'm in the same boat as you are. I took mine on Monday 10/2 as well and still no results. This is my second time around, and the second time I had 265 questions. I really did think that after 75 questions I was doing okay but it just kept going... what gives me confidence was that this time around I was very familiar with the topics given to me and that Kaplan gave me the tools I needed to think through the question. I remember my last question perfectly, and I KNOW I got it right - hopefully that's a good sign.

I know this second time around, the feelings don't change while you're waiting around, just try to distract yourself and be around those that will support you, no matter what the results are.

I'll keep you in my prayers, please keep me in yours.

Actually this is a misconception. The last question, whether you get it right or wrong, does NOT determine pass/fail. Just like the number of questions does not determine pass/fail. But congrats on passing your exam!

OP: Still pulling for you!!!! We all are!
