NCLEX Today with 75 Questions


I took NCLEX today after 75 questions and 90 minutes. I got about 7-10 alternate format questions, and 2 calculations. The questions would be a basic question would get harder for 5-8 more questions then another easier question in a different subject followed by more hard questions.

When the computer cut off it took me by surprise.

I felt pretty good leaving the test, but on the way home remembered I only had 1 question on OB, maybe 2-3 on peds. I hope that is not a bad sign. Most of my questions were priority and critical thinking questions.


48 hours to wait on a my results.

Good luck. The amount of OB and Peds has no bearing on pass/fail. I think I had 2 peds, and 2-3 OB on mine and I passed.

Hi Sock!

What areas did majority of your questions come from? What topics do you advise that I should focus studying on?

May I also know what materials you used in preparing for NCLEX? What review books did you use for content and for practice exercises?

Thanks a lot! I wish you all the best on the results of your exam. =)

Thanks for all the responses.

I had alot of priority and critical thinking questions. There was two right answers every time. I just seemed one was the slightly better answer. Multiple topics were covered in this test. As far as studying goes, take a NCLEX Review course like Hurst Review or Kaplan.


Good Luck
I used Hurst review (live) and the Saunders book with CD.
