im having mixed feelings!! AAAHHHHH!!

Published

hello everyone. this is my first time going to this site. i took my test for the SECOND time on the 10th of this month and im scared to find out my results! my questions stopped @ around 140-150. from what i've been reading here, most people who passed stopped @ either 75 or went all the way to 265, but i havent seen any posting of anyone who passed @ 150 qs!! now im starting to feel like i didnt pass! when i took the the test for the first time i actually ran out of time and didnt even get to finish the whole 265. i think i was more concered about wanting to just finish 265qs so i kinda started panicking towards the end and kept guessing on the questions. anyway, i FAILED. so i took it again and this time it stopped @ 140-150. i keep telling myself that there's no way i could have done worst than the first time considering that i did way more practice q's this time around, but i still feel like i didnt pass. i must have done more than 4000 practice q's from saunders, zerwhek, lippincot, kaplan, mosby, and exam cram books! my dad bought me like 8 review books! anyway, im just hoping for the best right now coz i really dont think i can go through that "depressing moment" again! please pray that i pass. im still hoping.......:mad:

Number of questions means absolutely nothing, quite a few pass with numbers right in the middle. I have had students time out at 154 and still pass, as well as time out at other numbers and pass. And we have seen any number of questions not determine anything. It is all going to come down to the level that you were getting the majority of the correct answers at.

Best of luck to you. And please keep us posted.

This time most likely you passed. Most of the time, people either pass or fail at 75 or 265. When you get a number like that 140-150 mostle means, you passed.

This is a exam which is very hard to predict. Doesn't matter what number you get it is just a number. You have a good chance on passing but there is no guarantee and all you can do is wait for the results. Good luck
