Have you personally failed at 75 questions? Did you feel confident or totally were unprepared for the exam?
I realize everyone totally feels drained after taking the exam. This is not my first time taking it (I've always had all 265 questions), but this is the first time I've had 75 questions before it shut off. I've studied for weeks and have done tons of questions, so I feel hopeful. The test didn't seem totally difficult, and I didnt have any math, and had 2 SATA questions. I got mostly priority questions and meds. I just hope I didn't fail after weeks of studying. I admit the other times I've taken it, I did not study as I should have.

Me, personally? No. But I've read through what probably amounts to thousands of posts on the subject by now, and I've seen passes AND fails at 75 questions.

Having many or few SATA questions means absolutely nothing.

The only indication of how you did is the fact that you got the minimum number of questions and the computer then shut off, having determined to a 95% certainty you were either competent (and there was no reason to continue) or incompetent (and, again, there'd be no reason to continue).

Given your level of preparation for this exam, and the fact that you have received all 265 questions in the past, what do you feel is the likelihood of your failing MISERABLY at 75 questions this time? It would seem more likely that you passed.

In any event, I wish you good luck, and hang in there for the outcome!
