The passing mark was 151. But then, they remove some "experimental questions", so I don't know what was the total number of questions...

I think the mark is out of 240-260 questions, as indicated in the CNA prep guide... but the passing mark is different for every exam

im with you guys.

except that i found BOOK 1 to be sooo BRUTAL! i cant believe i spent almost 5 minutes in just 1 question for me understand it very well and process it my "already whacked brain". lol. seriously, it was really tough answering all those "what is the nurse's best response" questions... oh well...

best of luck to all of us!

Yes - the 1st book for me was brutal too -I sooooooo hear you!!!

Fingers crossed for all of us too!

Watch a comedy on TV! You need to find something else to think about that can distract you from your obsessive thoughts. The nexxt 6 weeks are going to drag if you don't. Oh, and the first rule of multiple choice exams is that you always go with your first choice and never change answers because the odds of changing a right one for a wrong one are at least 3:1. Forget about it for now, and watch something funny and fluffy!

I do agree with you all the exam was very tough especially the evening section. some of the questions were very confusing and i took more than 3 minutes for some questions. i worked hard for three months and now i feel so anxious.pray for me.

Don't worry. The pass rate is ok. I took CRNE 2 years ago! My suggestion is you can prepare NCLEX during this period. Good luck!

Why would you want to prepare for N-CLEX???? This exam is for working as an RN in Canada & has nothing to do with the USA exams.

I think this is good advice for those who may want to work in the US in the future because the information used to prepare for CRNE is still fresh in our minds and it will be relatively easy to add stuff about the NCLEX to this fresh info.
