Just took my NCLEX today and shutoff at 75 : (

Published

:confused:I am so freaked out!! I took my NCLEX this morning and it shut off at 75!! I felt like puking after it shut off. I am almost sure that I failed. That is the worst test I have taken in my LIFE! I had most questions narrowed down to two choices. I am totally freaked out, had a horrible headache after leaving and my heart was pounding during the test. I can't believe I have to wait 2-4 weeks. I'm going crazy already. I'm already thinking that I need to start studying again. :crying2:

I feel the EXACT same way. I should find out this morning. It's been 2 days. I can't imagine waiting 2-4 weeks!

I dont think i could wait 2-4 wks to find out my results, so i definitely feel for you. There is no telling yet if you passed of failed so just try to relax and do some things to stay busy and take your mind off the test. You did say you had the questions narrowed down to 2 so maybe you choose the right 1 out of 2 for most of the questions! I sure hope so! I wouldn't feel too bad just yet because most people say they walk out after the test thinking that they failed and many times those people pass who were positive they must have failed. Good Luck and try to relax!!

Until you get your results I would just forget about the exam. I know it is hard but the exam is done with and stressing isn't going to change anything and most if not all feel like you do when leaving the exam.

The only reason I can think you have to wait so long is foreign trained nurse with no SSN so hang in there and Good luck

I passed!!!! Please, have hope!!!! I was certain that I failed!!!!! I looked up everyone I missed. I had lots of the easier type questions (or at least I think they were considered easier). I didn't think I had that many priority and delegation which everyone says is a "good sign". I mean I had a bunch but most of the test was a blur. This has been the worse 2 days ever "knowing I failed". If your waiting get off these forums and go do something else because reading other's experiences will not help.

I know the waiting period is awful but stay positive. I took mine this past Thursday. It shut off at 75 too. I had got to 74 then my screen shut off for the two hour break time (Yes I took two hours for 75 questions cause I promised I was going to take my time). I took about a 5 minute break, came back and answered 1 more and it shut off. I could have passed out. I was like, "NO!!!, give me more questions" I left feeling humiliated but on Saturday I found out I passed. So just hang in there and Good Luck to you.
