Wait for your results before you panic. People have passed at 75, you won't know until you get your results. Deep breaths, think about something else, watch an old movie that you love, do anything but sit and stew.

Answering your last question right or wrong does not determine pass/fail except for question 265. When you answer a question correctly, the next question is up a level. When you answer a question wrong, the next question is down a level. The goal is to find your "sweet spot" in the level of difficulty in which you see-saw between correct and incorrect answers (saw tooth pattern). After a certain number of questions in which you are in the saw tooth pattern, it shuts off regardless if the last question was right or wrong.
