Does the crying ever stop???

:bluecry1:I took the test yesterday (NCLEX-RN) with 75 questions. I totally feel like I failed. I must have been in shock yesterday because I didn't cry at all... I just shook a lot. Today is a different story. I seriously can't stop crying. My eyes feel like they are swollen shut. I just need to know either way... This is total torture.

NCLEX examination decisions are not based on the number or percentage of items answered correctly, but rather on the difficulty of the items that a candidate can answer correctly 50% of the time. CAT administers test items with difficulty levels such that each candidate will answer about half correctly; these items provide the most information. Thus, all candidates answer about 50% correctly. Passing candidates answer 50% of more difficult items correctly, and failing candidates answer 50% of easier items correctly.
