Anyone fail with 75 questions??

Missbrendy · Jul 22, 2008

I am in the same boat and hopefully will find out tomorrow. At first I felt ok, but then when I started thinking over some of the questions afterward I know I made some dumb mistakes. Before taking the exam I remember telling everyone that I just wanted more than 75 questions to help me feel a little better. My stomach sank and my heart stopped when the screen popped off at 75. I know I was prepared so there is really nothing I would have done differently. Hopefully it was enough :)

Know that you are not alone in your waiting !!! ::::: Sending you good luck and empathy vibes ::::::

Unfortunately yes, I failed with 75 questions on 7/8/08. It is an awful feeling and one that I hope you do not have to go through. I'm so insecure about what I know and what I don't...and scared to death to retest and fail again. At this point I don't really know what to do. This failure has taken a huge toll on my confidence.

Don't count yourself out before you know your results...chances are you passed! I will keep good thoughts for you.

Thanks for any insight during this horrible wait.. :mad:

P.S. I was fairly positive that I had passed when mine ended with 85 PN and 75 RN exam. Fingers crossed for all of you!
