I am sure you did fine! Yes, I passed at 75. Yes, I felt like I only *knew* 2 questions, and yes, I got about 5 "select all that apply's". So, chill. Good Luck!
thanks for the words of encouragement;)

Exactly the same experience here. I had 75 questions, so many priority questions it was scary, and about 5 select all that apply questions. Felt like there were only a handful of questions I know I got right. I was so sure I had failed that I cried 2 1/2 hours on my drive home.
BUT I DID PASS!!
Remember that they ask you questions they feel you have a 50% chance of getting right. If you get half right at the right difficulty level, you pass.
Don't freak out! I've been there, and just a few weeks ago.

trauma- i am in the same boat- i didn't get 75 questions (which most of the time if you get that i think that means you pass more than fail. at least that's what i've heard) i got a 78? like-what??? you said you got a 76-did it take only those few q's for the computer to decided we're competent or not? I'm soooooo freakin out!!! i took it today and almost keeled over when it randomly shut off at 78. let me know if you find out anything:uhoh3:
dont worry...as you can tell from my post I was soooo freaked out, but I ended up passing. From what it seems on here, if you have around 75, its usually a good sign.
