Did you feel you did OK about the test when you finished it? I had only 75 and I am not sure... Someone told me I supposed to feel how I did but I have no idea. I don't know if this a good or bad sign (I mean have no confidence about if that was good or bad). From what I understand 75 questions have to be very clear good or very clear bad.

Every person that takes the exam gets 50% correct and 50% in correct. It depends on the level of the questions that you were answering correctly.

Do not read anything into the number of questions. And just sit tight and do not drive yourself crazy with this.

Just took it today as well. I feel the same as you. I had anywhere between 90-95 questions. I quit lookin after 88 because I just thought for sure that I was going to be there awile. It caught me so off gaurd whe it shut down that soon after 75 that I don't know what to think. I am preparing myself for the worst because thats how I feel right now. I cried the whole way home from that test and have no clue how in the world that thing is suppose to test minimum competency. Best of luck to us. Now we play the waiting game.

I was prepared for the worst ... but I actually didn't feel too badly after the test. I knew there was a chance that I had failed, but I was just SO GLAD that it was over with. I think that "relieved" feeling outweighed any fear that I had of failing, at least for the rest of the night.

I was just so glad when the computer shut off, I felt like *WHEW*, what a relief! Then I practically ran to my car and I had the radio cranked up and I sang the whole way home. The rest of the night I just enjoyed the fact that it was over with. Then I went to bed and when I woke up, I got online and found out I passed ..... I found out in less than 14 hours. If I had to wait longer than that then I'm sure I woulda been second guessing myself and felt like I had failed.

People on here gave advice not to look up questions/answers after you got done, I took that advice and was glad I did! I didn't open a book or anything that night .... I kept myself busy and preoccupied with other things. Just try to keep a positive attitude, I know it's hard.
