hi guys, i took exam yesterday. it was very bad becaz i ran out of time at 240 ques. i was crying all day. after i got home went to CHURCH to pray may be only GOD can help this time still there is hope may be ? if GOD likes me.:unsure:

so today i just put myself together and did PVT and it says results are on hold. i do not know what will be the result . At beginning i was really critically thinking. taking my time to find out correct answer. using all stupid kaplan strategies . after my break i noticed i am really behind . For me test was not that hard like kaplan and NOT even a one a long question like kaplan. questions were so simple . there were words mostly, priority .look like more contents.

i have 240 questions. so i had my [mostly hated questions in my whole review] about 40 -50 SATAs and 7 ECG strips two of these who you see first? so when i saw same time four ECG strips on my screen . i was like i gonna faint now.

about 30 who you see first, no delegation , 2 med calu, pharma about 15, lot of infection control , very easy 2 drag & drop , 5 exhibit like you read the CHART and then answer. i never seen that in my all reviews. anyway it was not that tough. thanks god not even one lung sound.

we all know that we get the questions the way we answering. so may be my level was not that high. my questions were very simple not much wording for me look like more NCSBN and NCLEX 3500.

sorry guys i am not saying dont take kaplan i meant questions were very straight. you dont have to take long time or read twice to think what question asking? i dont know i am pass or no? look like not but still praying .

if somebody knows please let me know what happens if you run out of time.

GOOD LUCK to all future test takers do not think too much and you run out of time.:no:

If you run out of time the computer takes the last 60 questions and if even one of those drops below the line then you have failed. If you stay above the line, even with wrong answers you pass. Crossing my fingers for you.

thanks for reply . but i didn't understand how can i stay above the line with wrong answer ?

The test starts with a question on the line. If you get it right you go up. Get the next one right go up again, get one wrong it goes down. If you can stay above the line you are fine. You will have a balance of right and wrong answers. You are expected to get half of them wrong. As long as you stay above the line you pass.

Prayers are with you! Keeping you in my prayers

Took me as long as 11 days for my results to get off hold and have the good popup! Keep checking

Stay focuse Davii I am going to keep you in my thoughts. I know this is a stressful time for you. Keep thinking positive thoughts.

any news? I hope you did pass.......please let us know

I agree with St_Claire. As long as you stay above the passing line, you'll be good. Hoping for the best. Keep us posted. Pray Pray and Pray. :D
