I need some input. I took NCLEX for the second time yesterday and am still waiting anxiously for the results. I keep hearing from friends and coworkers that the last question on the test before the computer shuts off determines whether you pass or fail. In other words, if you get it right you pass NCLEX and if you get it wrong you fail NCLEX. Does anyone know if this is true? Thanks much!!

The number of questions that one receives has no bearing on the results.
Getting the last question correct or incorrect has no bearing either.
It is impossible to second guess how one will do on this exam, there is nothing to do but wait until you get your results.
Best of luck to you.

That is a myth like so many others that float around.
the anticipation is horrible I know. But all you can do now and wait, go for a walk, clean a closet, have lunch with a friend. Hopefully your state participates in quick results and soon you will know..
Best of luck!@!

really? it doesnt matter if the last question is correct or wrong? because they always ask me if i answer the last question correct
