A little bit higher but I was told by many of my instructors that NCLEX pass standard has raised every year.

It was raised beginning April 1, 2013. They expected their pass rates to drop from what I read back then.

So is the pass rate for first time US educated test takers just 82%? I really thought it was higher.

For years its hovered around the 85% mark. When they upped the passing standard April 1, 2013 they expected that rate to drop some but not too much.
