Hello Nurses!!!!!

I took my LNV exam yesterday!!!!! I test was only on priority, patient teaching and assigments. My computer shut off at 85 questions. I left that testing center without hope, crying, feeling terrible. :crying2: I spoke to every person from my phone list and when i told them that my test stopped at 85, they all said that i had pass but that did not make me feel better....... But i asked them "do you know of anyone not passing and their test stopped at 85?" they all say no. But i honestly cannot tell you how i did on the test!

I dont know, i am going crazy not knowing. :o

Does anyone knows of any test taker stopping at 85 and not passing?

please let me know, should i start to creat a new stragety and pick up my books so i could prepare to take the test again!!!!

please i need some words of encouragements.............

thank you:cry:

Honestly you can pass with 85 in the same way as pass with 205. This is something that is so hard to predict but first timers usually pass by 85%

Hang in there and good luck

My test stopped at 87 in Oct. of last year and I was sure I had failed. I did not. I think you should be positive because chances are good that you passed. I live in Ohio and I just kept checking the Ohio Board of Nursings site where they list your license. It is so hard to wait for results. Keep yourself busy with friends or family until you get the results. :weathersunhot::icon_hug:Here's a good luck hug. Keep us posted.

i really thank all of you for your comments and this website, i did not know who to turn to. Taking this test for the first time has taken all of my energy and confidence. But all of your words make me feel better!!! I have 2 to 4 weeks to go to get my results since i live in California, but you will be the first to know.........

thank you!!!!!!!

Just took nclex pn had 85 questions which 31 of them was select all. I am freaking out thinking I failed. So many say that if it shut off at 85 that is good and to have that many select alls, they were throwing hards ones at you. Please need some incite!! pass or fail???
