OMG !! I am speechless. I dont even know what to say, except I have NEVER in my entire life been through such a gut-wrenching experience. I had ALL 265 DANG questions !!! As most people feel, I am sure I failed. I cannot believe it. I went into feeling okay, after I hit 175 I just knew I'd be taking the entire thing. I have heard of people passing with 265, but I am SOOOOOO.... scared. I am supposed to start my new job on 2/7/04, and I will be so upset if I dont pass.

I had 3 check all that apply, no math, approx. 10 OB, and 7 PEDS. I had NO idea there would be so many priority questions. PLEASE someone give me some hope and get me thru the LONGEST weekend of my life.

:( :bluecry1: :confused: :sniff:

Because dang it I have worked SO hard and deserve to be a :nurse:

Guess what...I PASSED!!!! And with 265 questions!!! I can't even believe it. I am still waiting for the board of nursing to issue an apology for making a mistake...LOL. I am so elated that all I want to do now is sleep. Take care, I hope your news is just as good as mine!!!!

i will keep praying for you, ashley. i had actually spoken with my boss about what i would be doing at work if i failed this thing--that is how much i thought i failed it. i really do believe that every tenth person or so gets all 265 questions--despite what some review instructor said in another thread. it makes too much sense. the test is validated that way, and so many people i have spoken with are passing at 265.

finally, think about this: by 3.5-4 hours, do you really think that if we are still in the gray zone, that magically we do well enough in the end to pass? what i mean is, by the 4th hour, and the 250th question, i could not concentrate at all...just wished it was over, and was praying to god that nclex likes the answer "c." lol.

anyway, i could be way off, but i really think that there is a random number of people who get 265, so hang in there.
