Just took my NCLEX-RN and the computer shut off at 75....I think I'm going to be sick....Could I have done that badly? I know you can pass or fail at 75, but I just can't imagine that I did well enough to be done at 75. All my other friends were in the 120-170 range. I would have just felt more comfortable with more questions. I feel that for the computer to shut off at 75, you had to do either really good or really bad...I don't feel like I did either....in fact, I don't really have a clue as to how I did....Is this normal? God, I hate this....

You did fine.
Relax. There is no sense in worrying about what you cannot change.
Go read something for pleasure, for a change.
Might I suggest Ender's Game, by Orson Scott Card. LOL. Sneaking in a plug for my all time fav book.
87%. That is the pass rate for first time test takers.
Keep thinking that. 87%.

I think feeling sick is an almost universal reaction!
Keep thinking 87% and go and do something for fun. Good luck!!!!!!!!

Hang in there! My test did the same thing. So I figured, I'm either completely hopeless, or I passed. No sense worrying about it now, Like "Timothy" said worrying about something you can't change won't help (sorry to paraphrase). I just have to stay off the OSBN site to stop from chekcing to see if results are in, if I don't I will go crazy!
Good Luck!

God bless u and good luck
