not as easy as that to predict. Some people feel confident in the answers and feel they pass and they don't or visa versa. The only thing to do is relax, try hard not to think about it and wait for your results

Good luck

thanks silverdragon. i guess someone is listening to me. im worried because kaplan said on the book that if you get all 265 - you pass if your last qs was hard, if its easy then it means you failed. they don't have statistics for people who are between 75 and 265 ... this is why im freaked out. but thanks again.

I wouldn't worry, we have all been there I failed twice before passing and twice got all 265, the last time was 265 and I passed, so know how hard it is not to think about it but the exam is done and second guessing isn't going to make any difference. I would just try and relax and wait for the results

You don't know what else to do? Well there's only 1 thing you CAN do ..... WAIT! :)

Seriously, you can worry and think about it all you want, but it's over and done with. Go out, have fun, relax, and enjoy the fact that you don't have to study anymore! Good luck to you.

There is really no predictor to say whether the last question determines if you passed NCLEX. Mine was hard, I think I got the last one wrong, but passed with minimum questions. The same can be for a person that had to answer all questions and those that answered less. Most pass the first time, so, hopefully, you can consider yourself to be one of them. Good luck!

From I understand, computer makes its decision if you passed or failed based on the fact that you answered 50% of difficult Q's (Qs that above passing line). Thus, I think if you did well, than it might passed you somewhere between Q # 50-60. But b/c you can't have

Good luck !

Getting an easy question does not mean automatic fail- its a myth. The NCLEX demon is really hard to predict which questions are on the difficult level. Hopefully you'll be posting soon that you passed. :)

hi dolphinrn84!!! thank you for saying that it's a myth ... I feel better. I didn't really care about the number I answered, just the fact that my last qs was easy that kinda freaks me out. thank you for your message. I hope you are so right about that.
