I stopped at 205...

Published

I was so cmfortable with the questions they were asking me and i was so sure that it would stop at 85....but I guess not. the higher the number got the more anxious i was for the computer to shutoff. the questions got harder all focusing on endocrine. it stopped at 205.

i left the testing center crying, discouraged, and unintelligent. i called everyone i can think of to think what they thought 205 meant...that is of course the maximum questions you can get at the NCLEX-PN.

do you think there is still hope? qhat are the chances of me passing honestly.

The exact same thing just happened to me yesterday.

I was *positive* I was rocking the test, then it kept going and going and going, coming back to hypothyroidism more than once...

Now I'm flipping right along with you.

The bright side, I know I didn't fail miserably, as it would have cut off sooner, right?

At any rate, GOOD LUCK!!!

Don't stress, it isn't worth it. Look at it this way, worst case scenario, you kill the test next time.

At least, that;s what I keep telling myself............but I know how you feel. I just wish I could see my score now and tell......

What state are u in? When will you know for sure?

I hate to say it, but its extremely hard to predict passing and failure based on the number of question...

Please refer to 'How the NCLEX works', at the top of this forum for more info.

I completely agree! Just try to be patient..worrying too much won't change the results no matter what they are-although I understand how hard you worked to get to this point so you probably can't eat, sleep or think straight!

Best of luck and please let us know when you find out!!!!

OK here is my 2 cents. I took the NCLEX in July and thank God I passed it shut off at 90. Almost everyone from my class it shut off at 85 and they all passed. The smartest girl in our class got 205 and passed. 2 girls failed with 205. The number of questions is no indication of pass or fail. Keep up the faith. I live in Connecticut and we get our results in 48 hours, that wait was bad enough. Good luck to you both. Keep us posted. Nancy :balloons:
