Took NCLEX PN, shut off at 85

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I have a question. I took my NCLEX-PN today and my test shut off after the 85th question. Now, everyone in my class that had 85 questions passed...do any of you know anyone that failed with 85 questions? I had a ton of pharm, about 70% of my exam, like 10 select all and plenty of prioritizing.

My theory is this. If I wasnt doing too good at 85, would they keep on going until I got to 205 and if I was still failing at 205 then have a fail?

I am just wondering what is the probability of my failing at 85 questions...Thanks

I took my exam today, and mine also stopped at 85 questions! I feel pretty good about it, so I think im good. The only thing is that I dont think the Massachusetts board of nursing site will update their current licenses database until Monday, which suuuucks, but I'll live! Anyone know if they update those databases all weekend long?

I took my nclex yesterday 85 questions. 3 dosage cal 6 pharmacy 3 put in order 5 Mars and 13 sata only got one maternal ? Which was my worst subject. So nerve racking. Why do we have to wait 6 weeks?

what helped with priority questions for LPN exam. Does the rules still apply: rank in order who to see first? ( unstable vs stable , change of condition, ABC)

Hello all current nurses or soon to be

I took the NCLEX earlier today. The computer shut off at 85 questions. I felt relived at the moment because I have already used almost 2 hrs. If questions kept going I may run out of time. With the NCLEX updated this year, I had 20+ SATA questions.

I'm so nervous right now. My friend told me about the trick to see the result early, but unfortunately I got the "bad pop up". However, I checked it only two hours after the NCLEX. So does this mean that the trick are not reliable and I'm just stressing myself out more?

PS: I felt confident answering the questions during the exam. The only thing is when I practiced with UWorld, when it was close to the exam date, I did the two assessments. first one I got a comment stating I have a "high chance" to pass while second assessment I didn't do as well which Uworld stated I was "borderline".

So now I don't know what to think...

I just took my PN boards today 11/10/18 and I feel as though I did pretty good! Mine also shut off at 85 questions.i also got the bad pop up when I did the pvt so I'm pretty nervous now :(.Everyone in my class had 85 and passed and I'm hoping it's the same for me I had 2 put in correct order, like 15 sata and close to what felt like 5000 prioritizing... fingers crossed I passed! Good luck to everyone else who is commenting!!!
