Help! I just took Nclex-PN and it cut me off at 85!!!!

Dod0303 · Aug 15, 2009

Hang in there - so far all my fellow students who have taken the NCLEX PN have passed at 85 questions and felt like they failed. I'm taking mine on Monday and feel totally unprepared, scared and am afraid I will be the first in my class to fail. But if so then I will retake. Take hope in the fact that most feel like they failed when they didn't. Let us know how it goes.

Thanks, If people think they fail and the passed then I should be good! lol because I didn't know probably 98% of it (it felt like!). Just study nclex questions, go over your notes from school, maybe if you have a mock nclex testing cd do that also! That is what I did non stop for a month. No matter how prepared you are the test is nerve wrecking!! I hope you do well......Good luck on your test!!! I'll let you know what happens when my results are in...(I'm scared to even think about going to look on the website!!)

any word? I also took mine yesterday, cut off at 85 and it felt HORRIBLE! Going in I'd done all these ATI tests that said I had a 98% chance of passing on the first try, but I felt like a huge MORON in there! Really. I kept getting tons and tons of "check all that apply" style questions and I'm terrible at them. I'm trying not to freak out, but I'm supposed to start RN school next week and I'm out of the program if I fail :crying2:

My only consolation is that a friend took it last week, got cut off at 85, was so sure he failed he was going to tell his boss, and he pass :yeah:

I don't know, hopefully by tomorrow night if they update the site. Once it comes back online I'm going to try the trick though.
