    Woo-hooo Julie!!! You go girl as it sure sounds like you may have passed that exam! :hatparty: :kiss

    It is STILL blowing my mind that graduate nurses today are taking their exams by computer, and only needing to answer 75-85 questions before the computer shuts off on them. Wow!!! Absolutely amazing!!!

    I graduated and took boards during the days when RNs had to sit for a TWO DAY HANDWRITTEN EXAM, and LPNs sat for one whole day of exams!!! My, how things have changed! Amazing!

    I am sure you did great! Everyone I know but one person had their computer shut off at 85 questions and they passed. The only person that it didn't, it went to 103 and she passed also!!! I know how stressing it is to wait for those results, I was just in your position 8 weeks ago! Good luck!!!

    HUGS!
