Did I fail??!

Published

I took my NCLEX yesterday and like every one else I'm going crazy. Test shut off around 95 questions after about 45 minutes. I feel as though I saw a few low level questions which unfortunately I know I missed about three. However, I'm fairly confident I got a few "higher level questions" correct. How can this affect my score? I'm also curious as to why I didn't encounter any calculations and why there were very few delegation questions. Could this mean anything? Also I have checked the BON website and do not see my name :(. I didn't try the Pearson trick, too nervous.

I answered your other post.

Unless you are an expert in educational pedagogy and Bloom's Taxonomy you have no real way to know which are higher cognitive level and which are lower cognitive level questions. All question types have higher and lower level. Whether you got a bunch of delegation or SATA questions does not indicate pass or fail.

Not all states post licenses next day hang tight, quick results will be up tomorrow if your state participates.

You do not need to get every question right. Just enough right in all domains tested with a statistical confidence interval of 95%

Hi,

call the automated license verification number on the Board of Nursing website. I got my results the day after I took the NCLEX.

Not all states do that. CA it can be a 2-8 week wait. NJ it's a 4 week post NCLEX wait.

Thank you for your feedback everyone. I checked my quick results today and I passed.
