Ahhh! 76 questions!!!????

wdiehl · Jul 28, 2007

Ok, I took my NCLEX yesterday...I was in that dreadful thing for 3 hours and the computer shut off at 76!!! Not 75, but 76! I feel like I am going to die waiting for these results. I know this is the same thing evryone says after their test but this morning I woke up and got on here and saw all the new threads where people that had failed! One even failed at 75. That is scary. I have mixed feeling about how I did...I know I got alot of priority questions right...Always airway and breathing first. But there where so many questions that I had no idea about..they where about stuff that I had NEVER even heard of! Whats that about? I tried my best to make educated guesses, but I know I got some wrong. I just need to get out of this house or Im gonna go crazy trying to figure out if I passed or failed.

i also have mixed feelings how i did. i felt that i knew alot and didnt know alot i took the pn 2nd time and shut off at 85 that was my goal to pass. i just have to remember to trust that i passed last time i didnt but on the other hand if sike myself up that i passed and find out i failed i will be so devestated. but i do understand that i have to be positive and so should u think we passed we passed WE PASSED !!!!!! GEEZZZZ OH MIGHTY!!!!! :uhoh21:

I feel the EXACT same way! I took the exam this morning and had 86 questions. Strange content information. During the 2-1/2 hour drive home, I thought about all the margaritas I would consume once I was home and safe.

well don't worrie i am sure you did fine also there are lots of people that take the test and pass with like 70 something questions. also keep in mind to be positive and don't worrie yourself because i am sure you did good in fact passed because the computer shut off so soon if not it would have keep going more then likely. anyways good luck to you hope you did well.

Thanks guys....I guess we are all in the same boat. Talking to other people who feel the same way is somehow therapeutic. I also just realized that I am going to have to wait two more days to get my results because I took the test on Friday....so I guess I have to wait till Tuesday! Im going to totally go insane by then! I don't think I have ever experienced this much stress in my whole life.....I mean it really takes a toll on you, all this worrying. :uhoh3:

Mine stopped too at 76! Weeeird! But then, Im really trying to stay positive while awaiting for the official results...

Here's the thing I know that I had a HARD time with the test and all, come 76th question, I am positive I chose the right answer, then computer shutts off! You think.........???? :idea:
