Lpn nclex stopped at 85. Can u fail with 85 questions. Feeling anxious

Published

I've been looking at some of the blogs about different thoughts about other people test stopping at the min questions and trying the pvt and getting the good pop up. I guess I'm looking for more updated info about this. Well anywho well I took my test may 5 and it stopped at 85 right after I came back from my break. Being that I live in CA I have to wait 4wks so I was anxious I had to check the pvt. When i checked it I got this pop up about your card was declined check with your card company or try a different card. From looking at every one else's blogs about this I feel very discouraged. But then i saw this one sentence "exams Cannot be scheduled at this time" right underneath "Ready To Schedule". I was wondering does that mean anything?

Yes you can fail at the minimum questions. If your exam stops at the minimum questions then either you did really really well that they don't need to ask you any more or you did so bad that you're not gonna pass even if they ask you anymore.

Go look for the detailed post on how to do the Pearson vue trick. There are many, and you shouldn't have any difficulty in finding it. For instance, it's best to do it after 24 hours from when you took your exam.

Waiting is definitely a really hard part with the nclex but since waiting is the only thing you can do, you might as well go relax and get your mind on something else.

My stopped on the minimum and I passed. I'm crossing my fingers for ya!!!!!

You can pass or fail at 85 questions.

I passed, maybe you did...you are going to have to wait the 4 weeks to know if the PVT was accurate or not.

Best wishes.

My nclex pn exam stopped at 85 questions too. I did the pvt after 48 plus hours.
