Did I pass boards?

[kindone]

Oh Man! I took the NCLEX this morning at 8:00 am and now I feel sick about it! After my computer shut off, I ran to my car and cried for two hours! It was so hard! I got advise from some friends not to look at what number I'm on, but I did, I couldn't help it! The last time I glanced down to check it read 200! Holy Crap! Not to mention, I was so nervous taking the test that I actually don't have a clue as to what number I was on when it shut off, but I think it was somewhere around 209. Is it possible to pass at such a strange number or only at 75? I'm worried because some of the questions were out of left field, especially the pharm stuff, I had no clue and totally guessed. If anyone out there has any advice on NCLEX pass or fail, please shoot it my way! I am going bonkers and it's only the first day!! Thanks much!

th[color=olive]e numb[color=dimgray]er does not matter. the number of questions you get does not determine pass/fail. only the number of questions you got right/wrong will determine if you pass/fail. no need to worry while you wait. stay positive!!! good luck.

THAT TEST IS HORRIBLE AND I AM SO SORRY U FEEL LIKE THAT, I FELT THE EXACT SAME WAY. I CRIED ALL THE WAY HOME (2 HOURS), ALL DAY AND NIGHT, EVERYTIME I LOOKED AT MY KIDS. IT WAS HORRIBLE. I FOUND OUT THE NEXT DAY I PASSED. IT WAS MIRACLE AND HOW THEY GRADE THAT THING, I DON'T KNOW, CUZ I WOULD HAVE FAILED MYSELF!!! JUST PRAY AND GOOD LUCK.

Welcome

Unfortunately very hard to predict all you can do is relax and wait. Good luck

I had 109 questions on nclex and passed the first time. so stay encouraged.

You can't be focused on the number, because you will be confused every time. Me and a lady in my class took the test and we both took 265 ?. She passed and I didn't. That shows that the number is just a number. Stay positive and you'll do great. The good thing about boards is that If you don't get it right the first time you can always take it again.

Think positive until you get your results. Most people think they bombed and end up passing.
