How many got only 75 questions?

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I took the NCLEX yesterday morning and I was done in an hour and only got 75 questions. When it shut off, my heart sank and I felt sick. I had no dosage cal. questions(which I'm good at), lots of pharm.(which I suck at), and a ton of priority questions. I hate this waiting and it's only been one day. :o

I took mine yesterday and also shut off at 75. It took me about an hour. I had a lot of priority, diabetes, cushings, isolation, and safety. There were 6 of us in the parking lot that stopped at 75. I'm in CA so no quick results. Hopefully I will see my name on the BRN site by Friday.

I took my test last Friday 6-15, it shut off at 75 questions. I almost had a meltdown. I had to wait until today to find out that I PASSED!! I am so excited, but the wait drove me insane. Good luck to everyone out there still waiting.

75 should mean you passed. The exam is adaptive so we all got a lot wrong. I was done in 52 minutes--that blue screen is a shock for sure. One guy in my class, one of the smartest, had 263 questions and passed.

Took the dreaded test today - stopped at 75!! Holy crap:uhoh21: my heart dropped into the pit of my stomach.

Was unsure of alot of questions. Tons of priority & pharm, with a smattering of pedi, ob & psych. Zero med calc. Will be checking BOR & Pearson constanly. The waiting totally sucks.

Good luck to all waiting on their results.

I took mine today and burst into tears when it shut-off at 75. I'm SO glad I found another emotional person!

BTW, I passed too! I already got my license in the mail!

I had like 81 questions, when I hit the button for next question at 75 and saw ques 76pop up i freaked-but I know I missed a few of my first 10 questions cuz the first one threw me=took a while to get back on track. Tho I walked out thinking I failed. I actually went home and obsessed. I ACTUALLY remembered like 78 of the ques listed them on pp and set about to look up what the right answer was. still have that pp. I thought if i can remember these quest after the test is over, that has to count for something=intelligence wise. I passed.

I took my NCLEX yesterday as well. 75 wuestions, A LOT of pahrm. It was awful...drugs I had NEVER heard of! No math...thank GOD! I will be suprised if I passed. I would have posted yesterday that I tested, but I was on my way to a friend's house in Louisville, KY...about 3 hours away from Nashville. We were scheduled to have a 'Spa day' due to my stress level. Anyway, I was on my way there and was in a car accident. Car is totaled..I am sore as heck!! Ikepp thinking, if I find out I pass tomorrow, the accident won't seem so bad. If I find out that I failed, yesterday will have been one of the worst days ever!!!

I am thankful that myself and the other driver walked away. It was my Nissan Sentra vs his Ford F150...no chance formy little Sentra.

Anyway, we will see tomorrow.

ps...thank God for seatbelts and airbags!!!!

I just took the awful test today, and the computer shut off @ 75. :uhoh3: No calcs (which I'm good at) TONS of pharm questions of meds I've never HEARD of, lots of SATA q's, and really random, difficult questions about topics I know LEAST about. I was so shocked and scared, I just came home and bawled to my husband, certain I had failed. However, reading all these stories has helped me feel better, so I'm just trying to be patient and know that I will find out by Friday! I'm just so glad to know there are others in the same situation and they passed! Praise the LORD for QuickResult!!!
