HELP! Did anyone get 265 questions and fail?

Silverdragon102, BSN · Dec 12, 2007

I know this is talked about a lot so sorry. :) I have read lots of you got 265 questions and passed but I really think I failed. Did anyone get 265 questions and fail? Thanks guys!!

First time I failed with 265 and 3rd time passed with 265, many feel like they failed after taking the exam but is hard to predict. Good luck

I failed my first time with 265. I just took it again with 75 but have not found out if I passed yet though. I also work with someone who just took hers and failed with 265. If you do you won't be alone. Good luck to you!

I failed with 265 the first time and 75 the second time. The third time I will be passing :)

I just took it on Dec 11 and I got 265 questions and I just found out that I passed so it is really hard to know because i truly thought that i was going to fail, i got about 15 multiple answers and my last question was a multiple multiple too.

I failed the 1st and 3rd time with 265 - Near passing in every category. Don't give up! -

do we really need to get above passing on all categories in order to pass??

Positive thinking... YES we both will. Please PM me if you want. What are you doing differently to prepare this time? How long are you giving yourself. I took my boards last at the end of October, and can sit now, but don't feel prepared (holidays, life, etc...). I plan to sit sometime in Jan or early Feb...

Someone recommended Sylvia Rayfield's review course and it is being offered in Jacksonville at the end of Jan... Does anyone on the boards have any experience with this class?

THANKS...

THAT is a great great question... If someone could explain this to us, I would love to be able to use the results given by the state as a TOOL to help prepare for the next exam, but to me it is SOooo vague...

ALSO, has anyone ever challenged the results? I have heard that if you do, you are able to sit down and look at your exam and see the actual questions you had, and thus be able to prepare more completely for next time around.

THANKS!

Don't loose hope. You can still pass at 265. I finished at 265, 90, and 265 again and failed I will pass the next time around! :up:

I really am not losing hope - I re-take again in a couple of weeks please pray for me and I will do the same for you. I guess what is most frustrating is each time I got all 265 NCLEX told me I probably just missed it by a few questions because I was near passing in every category.

How are you studying this time around?

:idea:
