I took my NCLEX Oct 22, 07 and received 265 questions, and failed. I just retook them yesterday and received around 175ish, and found out today that I passed (my RN license number is posted on BON)! So, the number doesn't mean anything. I had 2 friends get 265 and both passed. Let me tell you, I seriously left yesterday thinking I failed, my last question was a drug calc that I missed, so I had myself convinced that I failed since I missed my last question, turns out that isn't true! Just keep positive and hope for the best. I have been in both situations, I felt the low of clicking on that link and seeing FAILED and the high I felt today when I logged in and saw REGISTERED NURSE! What a weight off my shoulders! Failing isn't the end of the world, just means you have to wait a few more weeks to retake it. I think for me waiting 6 months helped because I got more experience on the floor and was able to prioritize and apply on the test. Did you have alot of higher level questions? Like application, prioritization?

Me again! Sorry, I just saw your comment about running out of time. The people at Kaplan say that if you run out of time they look at your last 60 questions, and if you were above passing standard then you will pass, if you dropped below the line they fail you.

Honey you don't know if you failed take a couple deep breaths and let it sink in that you don't have to study.....wait a couple of days and get back to life. when and if you need to look at the stickey above that has the 1st step of Suzannes plan. NEED TO THINK POSITIVE !!

And to Jersey CONGRADS honey you did it hopefully I can say that next week.
