Breathe!! Those are all passing level questions! They look at your performance of the last 60 questions. Did you try the pearson vue trick?

Just about everyone walks away feeling like they failed.. Totally normal... Just wait it out and do the PVT as mentioned by first poster to calm your nerves..

Don't lose hope. I took mine Thursday and got to180 before it shut off. I was positive that I had failed too, but I passed. I had big time anxiety going in and throughout, but fought past it and won. So don't give up yet. It sounds like you were above the passing line and that's the key. You might have won too.

My exam cut off at I think 78 questions. No margain of error - I either passed or failed. No wiggle room at all to debate it. I left, went home and cooked dinner. I'd scheduled my exam on a Saturday (bad choice! I should have known better, knowing my personality), and so I had to spend the entire rest of the weekend wondering. Well, except, living at home at the time, my brother and parents didn't let me worry too much! Neither did my friends - I went out that night with one of my bestest friends who was deploying the following week for active duty. Sunday I went to church, came home, took the dogs on a walk and met some of my nursing school friends for the afternoon/evening spent of doing nothing but fun stuff (because of the backlog at our SBON I was the last to take it, and it was SO nice to go out and not stress about the test at all).

My friends from school and I were clearly the only ones who didn't know about the PVT! Our state board, despite a HUGE backlog processing applications to release ATTs - if you took the exam and passed your license was posted on the online verification site within 24-36 hours unless you tested on a Friday or Saturday. I had a list of errands Monday morning and when I got home I checked the license verification site for our SBON - and it was posted!

I don't know anyone who didn't feel like they'd failed when they took the exam. It's not supposed to be easy and it doesn't leave you with a great feeling either.
