I hate waiting!

Published

Well, I took the NCLEX a little over a week ago and the waiting is killing me! I live in Alabama and it takes forever to get results here. The computer turned off at 75 and really caught me by surprise. I wasn't expecting it to be over so soon. My WHOLE test was priority questions, ugh. Just thought it would make me feel better to vent to people who might understand my frustration. Thanks!

I just wanted to say good luck and keep a positive mind! Mine shut off at 75 too! But I felt like I didn't get enough priority questions, so I'm extremely worried that I wasn't doing well. You never know though, huh? The waiting period to find out is ridiculous, I feel. I mean the computer knows whether or not we pass or fail, so why make us wait 48 hrs, a week, two weeks?? Haha, I guess I needed to vent a lot too! Anyway, Let us know how you did! :D Katie

Don't worry about how many questions you had. Most candidates answer the minimum number of questions. Usually between 55 and 60% if examinees. Only about 15% get the maximum number of questions. Everyone else falls somewhere in between, with the average being around 120 questions. Don't worry, I'm sure you did great.
