I took boards yesterday and received 76 question. This is such an odd number, but from reading some of the previous postings, not so rare.

I had 1 or 2 SATA questions and 1 math question. I couldnt really tell a trend of if it was getting harder. I know that i got the last question correct.

Here's my question...I've heard that if you go passed 75 the system has not determined your competency yet...but if i got the last question correct...does that mean i passed?

HELP! Im so nervous...

Getting the last question right/wrong has no bearing on the results...it is just a rumor that's been going around forever.

You can pass/fail at any number.

Hang in there.

Thank you for the correct information and your support :)

I find out the unofficial results tomorrow, but I'm going out of my mind, wondering if a spent enough time on the question, did i make a stupid error :uhoh21:

I got a lot of "which patient would you triage/assess first" and "who do you know teach is effective" question

The waiting game continues...

Worried :crying2:
