I everybody, I took the NCLEX RN yesterday for first time, unfortunately I run out time at 242 questions:(. Does anybody know someone who run out time and passed:unsure:? I need to hear something that will give me any hope, I'm not feeling well now. I'm a foreign nurse, it has been a rough path to walk, specially to gather all the requirements that the MD BON ask for, plus learning the language and learning nursing all over in English. It was so hard, I prepared for myself, using the books that people in the forum suggest, and when finally I felt that I was prepared I decided to take the exam hoping that I will do well, but when I was taking the test and I realized that it was 100 questions and the computer didn't turn off, I started to get despair, thinking that probably I will go all over the 265, and I did it,but I couldn't finish all of them, now I don't know if I have any chance. please help.

Hang in there, you might have passed! No one can tell you with any certainty (unless they're good liars), BUT there is hope.
Your last 60 questions will be reviewed; if you were above the passing standard for that duration, you will have passed the NCLEX....even if you didn't finish.
If you were below the passing standard, though....you will have failed.
Good luck, hang in there and wait for results :)
