Nclex cut off at 85

[cloud 9]

Ok, so I came on here the day of my NCLEX and looked to see the odds of taking it and it cutting off at 85 pass/fail. Mind you, this was my THIRD time taking it. First time it cut off at 205; Failed. Second time it cut off at 109. You couldn't tell me I didn't pass that time. I even called my friends on the way home from the test to gloat and brag prematurely that "I passed". What a big mistake! I even went out and celebrated that night. Failed. It took me 6 months to get the nerve up to take it again. I looked at a book called "NCLEX PN made easy", my old school books (med-surg and OB), my medical dictionary and took notes on every disease, (Celiac, Polycethemia vera, Brudinksi's sign) EVERYTHING. The day of I prayed, took it, and it cut off at 85. I FREAKED OUT. OH I failed! I cried the whole day. The next day, I searched the website for VA and didn't see my name at the glorious 9AM hour and didn't see it. I came on this website and saw someone posted to call the 804 number. I did and guess what? I PASSED! The thing was I didn't call until 1pm. To think I could have called at 9. My point is don't give up. 85 is a good number.:balloons::balloons::balloons:
