Just took my NCLEX this morning. 60 questions, thinking that I failed.

I am so beyond nervous. The whole time I was taking the test I felt like I was between two answers and just guessing. I didn’t feel 100% confident on hardly anything. I did not expect the test to shut off at 60, I honestly expected to get more questions. Now I’m feeling like maybe I failed. I didn’t have that many SATA.. maybe 10-12? Where as my other friends who have passed have had upwards of 20-30...However the main reason I think I could’ve failed is bc I also had a math question toward the end of my exam. It was a multi step math problem, but I’m wondering if this is a bad sign because the math questions are typically not considered high difficulty level. I’m upset because I was a 4.0 student in school, I usually don’t struggle too badly with tests however sometimes I do get in my own head. I used UWorld to study, was in the 86th percentile and got very high chances of passing on both of my assessments. ATI Comp predictor gave me a 99% chance of passing.

What do you guys think? Is having the math question at the end and very few SATA a pretty bad sign for me? I am so so so anxious. I haven’t done the Pearson VUE trick yet because I am so scared. Would appreciate any advice because I’m losing my mind ? Should I try the trick? Is it accurate?

Hi everyone, I do have butterflies and it seems like my 48 hrs would be like a year. I did my NCLEX today and I was surprised to have my computer shut immediately after submitting the 75th question. Indeed I was prepared to answer atleast 100 /145 questions. My optional break popped up at 60th question which encouraged me, I went for break not only to come back and answer only 15 questions. Kindly advice.
