finished w/ 75 questions!

Published

i took the test at 8am this morning and finished the test in an 1hr & 10 minutes with only 75 questions!!! They say if you come out of the test feeling like it was the hardest test you've ever taken you probably passed w/ 75 and if you came out of the test thinking it wasnt so bad w/ 75 questions then you probably failed.... Some of the questions were really hard but some weren't too bad.... i have no idea if i passed or not. I wish i just knew!!! I didnt have ANY math, multiple-multiples, "hot-spots" or put answers in order... it was all multiple choice... is there alot of people who fail w/ 75?? I feel like i was prepared enough but when i took the test i feel like i had no idea what they were talking about or it was stuff ive never heard of!! :o

westGN,

your exam sounds just like mine. I finished with 75 questions in 1hr and 11mins. I had 5 select all that apply and the rest were multiple choice and priority questions. I had alot of meds that I never even heard of. I wanted to cry when I left that place. Now I keep looking for my results to post somewhere, anywhere :uhoh3:. All we can do at this point is to try and stay busy. It's killing me not knowing. Well I'll continue to pray for all of us.

Remember, chances that you passed with 75Q are > than you failed . Even if you look on this forum 90 % of people passed with 75Q and only few failed.

I know it’s easier said than done, but try to relax and forget about your test. There is nothing else you can do right know. You did your best and you can’t go back and change your answers. I know exactly how you feel, b/c I took my test yesterday and also had only 75Q. BTW, I got the last Q wrong:banghead:, so , I went through all stages of anxiety in les than 24hrs. Tortured myself, my husband, and my family. Just woke up, and the first thing I thought about was, I failed the “Evil TEST”, but than I said to myself “It’s over and if you did, (knock on the wood), life is not over, and you’ll retake and pass!”

So, don’t blame yourself for anything, and it does not matter if you had “hot spot” Q or not, you still PASSSSS :balloons::balloons:!!!!!

Believe in yourself because if you won’t than nobody will :yelclap:.

Me too!! I finished with 75 questions in about an hour. I felt like there may have been about 3 or 4 questions I knew the answer to for sure. They all seemed really hard!! Lots of teaching and prioritizing, some delegation, meds, only 2 select all that apply and the rest were multiple choice. To be honest, I was so thankful that the test shut off at 75 because if I had to sit through that torture any longer I think I would have had a meltdown. In fact, I did as soon as I got out to my car. I keep thinking that what if I thought the questions were hard because I wasn't prepared or were they just really hard questions?? To be honest, I don't think any amount of preparation could have prepared me for what was on this test. I just hope and pray that we never have to go through this torment ever again!! The next 48 hours are going to suck really, really bad, but at least we don't have to open a testbook!!

thank you for all your support!! It really helps to hear other people's stories!!
