I am so scared. I took the NCLEX on 1/3 (thurs) and my name still hasnt popped up on the CA BRN. My computer shut down after 75 questions. What do you guys think? I feel like I FAILED!

Hi and welcome to the site

Very hard to predict, best you can do is try to relax and wait for results

Although it might not mean much as it could be 50-50 but my computer shut off at 75 and I passed. I too felt that I had failed.

Keep your chin up and prepare for each possibility - but don't start studying again. Put the books away and enjoy not studying.

The feeling that nothing could prepare you for that exam won't go away - even when you pass.

Good luck.

same here, mine stopped at 75 as well, and I was so dissapointed in myself that I had failed. But I passed first time (thank God)

How long did it take you to get your results back? I took mine on 1/3. When do you think I should expect my results? It took my friends 2 days :o I feel so saaaaddddd

Varies some get their results in a few days and others got their results after a month.

Good luck to you DIVARN82. Most felt same way as you do after taking that NCLEX exam. I too got so scared & depress before when the computer stopped at 75 then later on found out that I passed at 75, 1st time.
