Passed NCLEX first try! But at an odd number, 94 questions

more than 85 ( lpn is min 85) less than 90... I wasn't expecting to shut off I didn't see the number..lol.. but wasn't a 5 or zero...

Been browsing these forums and for the most part, I see people passing NCLEX at numbers than end in "0" or "5". Just thought that it was odd that my test shut off at after my 94th question (or would you count that as 95 questions? haha) and passed. Anyone else pass at a non "0" or "5" number? Just curious that's all. I have never heard of anyone passing at number like my own so I thought I failed. Pretty much everyone I know that passed did so with a number that ended with a 0 or 5 lol. My license was posted in less than 48 hours yay!

Moral of the story, do not listen to rumors about NCLEX that aren't proven true (such as the one I believed)! Also, please please please keep yourself busy the next 2 days after your test, you will be dreading about it all day long. Keep your mind off it and do something fun!

Why would you think stopping on any particular number meant you failed? That's akin to thinking "I stepped on a crack this morning, so I probably broke my mother's back"

Yes, I have heard of people passing and failing at every number between the minimum and the maximum. What people tell you they did in terms of amount of questions means nothing at all; if you seem to notice it stopping at numbers ending at 0 and 5, try looking around a liittle more on this forum and you'll see EVERY digit possible. People oftentimes read things into something that isn't there, to give it a meaning that isn't there. Yours is another example :)

Congrats!

Good thing is you passed! Congrats :)

My NCLEX-PN I got the minimum of 85.

My NCLEX-RN I stopped at 117 and passed.
