Okay, so, I took NCLEX two days ago - this past Wed morning. I was very nervous going into the exam, and barely slept the night before, but oddly enough I was overall pretty confident with my answers - it seemed to be a lot of basic safety and generally easy questions (this worries me), but then again, I did take a 2 week Kaplan course in June, did countless questions and studied my *ss off for 3+ weeks beforehand (Saunders, Chicago Review, Kaplan, NCSBN website, a couple of audio books from iTunes, questions I downloaded on my iPad, etc). I got 75 questions and the computer shut off. I felt really confident that I answered nearly everything correctly - got a lot of select all that apply questions, but felt comfortable with my answers and there were only one or two questions where I felt like I had no idea what the answer was. Anyway, the 75 questions took me a little over an hour - no math, not a lot of pharma, and no hot spot or sound type of questions, just tons of SATA's. I walked out of there with my head high and then it hit me - IF IT FELT TOO EASY, I PROBABLY FAILED!!!
Now in my practice tests it was similar - I'd go through them thinking I aced them and would only get 50-70% so now of course I'm wondering if I failed. To make matters worse, I get home to do the Pearson Vue test and I get a NEUTRAL popup - "The candidate currently has test results that are on hold. A new registration cannot be completed at this time."
I chatted with a classmate who also got 75 questions, thought it wasn't so hard, also got that same pop up and he actually passed, so I started to feel better. HOWEVER, two days later and I can't even get my quick results! I'm being told that my test results are not available and when I called Pearson Vue, they said that it's technically two business days and I have to wait until Monday! (meanwhile I thought it was within 48 hours - other classmates have gotten their results within one day).
Do you think I failed? Did I take the test too quickly and they're questioning my results thinking I cheated? I'm really worried because I have a job waiting for me that I can begin orientation for in October, so it would be awful if I failed since I don't think they'll hold the job for me
