Has anyone passed Nclex in 180+ questions?

Hi all,

Took my nclex yesterday, and I'm pretty sure I failed.. I felt like I was guessing for the whole test, and getting med questions on med's I didn't know !

The worst part of it is that the test shut off on one of those questions I really didn't know and it seemed like just a recall question. (It was about labor) .

And now I feel like crap. So I'm wondering if anybody has passed it in that many questions so I can hold onto some hope.

Thanks!

Yes. Of course. It's not as though going beyond a specific number means you automatically fail....otherwise, why would the test continue?

People pass and people fail with every single number of questions possible between the minimum and maximum.

You might have failed. You might have passed.

Good luck!

I know I keep hearing that, but I have yet found any forum where someone has passed with 180 questions.. Thought I'd ask.

Thanks !

I took well over 200 questions and passed. Just be patient and relax till you have your results. At this point you can't do anything about it till you know your results. No sense in worrying yourself to death. Good luck!

Yes! I did! I actually got all the questions. You might've passed, you might've failed. Chin up!!!

Seeing as how I always see posts on here with the title "passed with 265 questions" im going to have to say nope. Never. Haha

I think theres a natural tendency to assume the worst when it comes to the nclex. Unless you really feel like you killed it and did 10,000 qBank questions most people leave there feeling dazed and confused and then depressed and distraught shortly after.

Only time will tell. Well..that and the PVT I suppose. Good luck!

I took NCLEX today I received the entire 265 questions. I did the PVT and got the good popup 3 times. I'm still freaking out and will try to be patient for my unofficial results on Sunday.

You might want to cut out doing the PVT at this point, seriously: the more times you submit, the greater your odds of getting it to take your money (or, with invalid info, still give you the infamous "bad pop up"). If you're freaking out now, just wait until THAT happens ;)

Besides, if you're paying the $8 for Quick Results, it is NOT "unofficial". It's quite official. It is an absolute, certain result. The only thing you WON'T know is when or if the BoN will actually issue a license.

Good luck!

Really? Every single DAY there is someone posting about how many questions they got, and the answer is VERY easy: yes :)

Absolutely. Just took mine on the 9th, found out yesterday that I passed with 209 questions.

I passed with all 265 questions. Keep yourself busy until you get the results.

Does the "search" button not work after 180 questions? What about if I get 4 SATA questions? What if "all of the above" is not one of the answers? What if my left eye started twitching?
