Like said, 85 is just a number and all it means is you got 85 questions. The only thing that matters is how many you got right or wrong. Most come out of the exam feeling like they failed. Please wait for the official results. Hang in there. Try to do something that will keep yourself distracted while you wait. The exam is just so hard to predict. Good luck.

I passed at 85 questions if that makes you feel any better! :) Stay Busy while you wait! good luck!

I took the nclex-pn on the 26th. I had tons of meds 15-17, only had 3 SATA, the rest were priority and delegations. I stopped at 85. I found out today that I passed. I live in California and they sent me the results in the mail in 4 days. Usually it takes about 3-4 weeks but I was surprissssed! You'll do fine.... Have faith... and pray! Leave all your worries to god...=]

People fail at any number of questions, they also pass at these numbers. It doesn't matter, only the final results are what you are interested in. Think in positive terms until you get your results and good luck.
