Hi, I just took the NCLEX-RN for Texas. I just want to know if there is a way I can know in full detail my exam information.
Because the moment I started #1 I closed up the timer and the counter because I dodn't want to get stressed or pressured by them. I had a pop up at the 2-hour mark asking me if I wanted to take a break, and I did. Then went back to answering questions.
Then the exam just ended. I never got the chance to know how far from the minimum or how close to the maximum I reached before the exam ended. I don't even have any idea how long I took the exam for.
I was just wondering if there is a way to know. If anyone can help me, thank you in advance!

To be honest don't think about it. Nothing will change. If you fail only then will you get a break down of your exam

You are focusing on something entirely irrelevant. If you received the minimum number of questions (75 for RN), and the exam stopped then, you either did very well or very poorly. Really that simple. Anything above that....doesn't matter what the number stopped at. It stopped when either you had reached the 95% confidence interval indicating competency...or incompetency. That's it. You will never receive any information indicating what number you stopped on, or the duration of time of your test. It was up to you to record that...or ignore that.
If you passed, you passed. There will be no more "information" to get, because.....you passed.
If you failed, you will receive a CPR (Candidate Performance Report) telling you in which categories of testing you were above passing, near passing, or below passing. THAT is all that will matter.

In the greater scheme of things, it doesn't matter how many questions or how long it took you. No employer is going to ask about your NCLEX, they want your license number. Yeah, I know, our classmates, family and friends want to know, just tell them it doesn't matter, that you didn't keep track and you are okay with that.
