Failed NCLEX

HelloI took the NCLEX*today*and i know I failed. The test stopped at 75 questions. I never got to the higher level application questions. The majority were SAT. I feel i got confused with alot of the info and just didnt know some of the material. I was extremely stressed and going thru test anxiety, which may have contributed to my results. I thought i was prepared but not overly prepared.* While taking the exam, i felt as if i wasnt doing well. Everyone is telling me not to worry about it. I know they mean well but unless you have been thru it, they may not truly understand. I have a gut feeling that i failed.* I just need to vent and hear from people who been thru it.* Any advice is truly appreciated.

Mine shut off at 75 questions. I had about 15 select all questions that i was pretty sure i didn't get right, and i passed. The questions were random and I feel I couldn't have studied for the test. I couldn't tell you which ones i got right or wrong. I wouldn't rule out failing just yet. Good luck.

The place I took mine was around the corner from my mom's work... As soon as I finished I drove over to her work and cried my eyes out! I only had 76 questions and I was totally convinced I had failed ... Two days later I found out I passed ... But those were the worst imaginable two days! Try and relax and take your mind off of it ... I know that is nearly impossible though! Good luck! I hope you hear good news soon :)

Do the Pearsonvue trick y'all

I had the exact same feeling as everyone here. Mine stopped at 75 questions in less than 2 hours. I had less than 20 SATAs and no drug calculation which worried me a lot. Cos i read somewhere here that majority got 30-40 SATAs when they stopped at 75. But then again, every test is different. I was ready to accept the fact that i failed. I couldnt do the pearson vue trick cos someone else made the account for me. I had to wait 3 days to get my unofficial result and it said that i PASSED. So i think its a normal feeling that you failed. Don't stop praying though! Chances are you passed as well! :)

Every single person I have spoken too that has taken the NCLEX think they failed. Whether it stopped at 75 or you had to take the whole test.....95% passed. No worries. You will be ok.
