I havent posted here in awhile but I am always reading other posts.

Well, today was the big I took my NCLEX exam. My computer shut off at 75 questions, beleive me I didnt want it too. I had lots of infection control, priority and teaching questions, 3 SATA and 1 math question. I believe I had about 7 Pharm questions. I dont know if I passed or failed.... I do know the last question was a priority/assignment question concerning a LPN, I feel I got that right. I have read that if you get pharm questions, those are the lower level questions, is that true? I have never been this nervous before in my entire life.:cry:. I felt like every time I got a priority question it would give me a teaching question or the patient understands if....... Does that mean anything!!! Someone please shed some light on me.

To fail at 75 questions, would mean you would of missed many many questions right?

Oh, I hope you pass, and I cant imagen how you feel but I will probably fee the same way soon too, I am taking my test this Sat. I will pray for you, GOOD LUCK!!!!!

You just can not predict with this exam, relax (i know that is hard to do) and Good luck

If it was a really obscure med, it could have been one of the 15 that don't count for or against you. That's what I told myself when I got some weird ones earlier this week.

I figure it like this. 85% of people pass the first time. Out of the 15% or so that do not, i'm sure the odds aren't very high that you fell into the small group that fails in 75.

You're probably fine. I would have bet anyone money that I failed mine as well.

Well, I am in the same position that you are in. I took my test this morning and I am kicking myself over answering some questions wrong that I should have gotten right. I also feel like I absolutely got the last question right.......hopefully that means something...

Hi GApeach, try to relax; I know that is easier said than done. The test is over so no try to get out and do something such as walking, hang out with friends or even go to the beach. Wishing you good luck.:twocents:

Thanks. I have been trying to forget but its so hard. I guess what is done is done, Right? I will find out Saturday.

Don't despair. Most people feel that they failed when they finish the test. Hoping you get good results on Saturday. Good luck.

I took my LPN a year ago and the computer shut off about then also and I passed! Good Luck! Relax.
