Did you know you were failing??

[mrod, LPN, LVN]

For those of you who failed (especially the 75 question people), while doing the exam, did you know that you might be failing while taking the exam?

Were you able to answer any of the questions? Were you unsure about the answers or were you confident and was totally shocked that you actually failed?

Please help me answer this....I am having test anxiety from taking the NCLEX today because I have mixed emotions about it.:

i couldn't tell if you had just taken your exam and were feeling anxious about it- if so I wanted to remind you that regardless of if you failed or passed- the adaptive computerized testing on the NCLEX is attempting to see at what point you answer 50% of the questions right. If this is at a higher level of difficulty, then you will pass. Either way, most people don't walk away from the NCLEX feeling awesome because you are only answering half of the questions right at some points (even if you pass!). I took mine last week and definitely felt bad about- I was SURE that I failed, but I passed. Hang in there and once you get your exam, pass or fail, you can plan from there. Try to distract yourself in the meantime.

My thought coming out was "There is no way on Gods green, blue, yellow, periwinkle, puce, plaid, pokadot earth that I passed that test." But. I Passed.
