Wow, just reading all these NCLEX stories makes me anxious a bit, and I have not even started a nursing program yet! I've sat through the 2-day New York bar exam and passed, so one would think the NCLEX sounds like cake. NOT! I'll be as anxious on NCLEX day as I was during that summer of hell years ago. Good luck to all of you!!!

:yeah:

Update everyone I passed with 265 questions. I am now a RN!!!

Congratulations

I just took the NCLEX today for the 2nd time, First time I had 85 questions and the computer shut off, This time I got 265 questions, I don't know what to think. I have reviewed everyones postings on the site and it looks like the consensus is at 265 the majority of people passed so I am keeping my hope alive. I took the test for a non- quick results state so I am going to have to wait it out. Wish me luck.

265 NCLEX takers is a good sign...Maybe we will open a 265 club because i know with a power of positive thinking you will pass the boards just like me. Goodluck to all of you and God bless.

i took the nclex-rn tuesday! i was so sure it was going to shut down at 75 or shortly after... but it keep going and going... i got all 265!!!!!!!! i did not see my results on the BRN site... so i felt as if i failed again. i called the BRN and found they do not have my transcripts and will not release my score. but it is the weeked so i can not check with my school till monday! i can not stand this wait! it is killing me! AHHHHHHHH!

I took the NCLEX exam for the second time on Monday, April 13, 2009. The first time I got 106 questions this time I got all 265 questions. I left the testing center feeling sick. I knew that I had failed. I was already preparing myself to retake the test again. I found out this morning that I had passed!!!!!!!!!!!! It can be done so for all future students who think that it can't be done. It can! Keep your heads up.:yeah:

i know this post is a year old but i took my nclex rn yesterday and had all 265 questions. the man guarding the testing room told me that there are people that get random 265 questions and that i should pick myself up off the floor cause i could be one.

thanks!

thats what they were told, that 1 in 4 gets 265. randomly. my 265 was like that, peds, ob, psych, maternity, lots of infection control, and tons of prioritizing. and from what my friends who have taken it said, they got about they same.

it is wrong, people do not randomly get picked to sit max number of questions. as long as the computer keeps giving you questions means it is borderline on deciding your results.

I received 25 SATA questions, which I hate and 3 dosage questions. The rest of the test was an array of different areas. I will keep you in my prayers. When will you find out your results? Let us know how you did!
