Just freaked out about the NCLEX in Kentucky, imagine that. I just finished taking the NCLEX-RN exam about 2-1/2 hours ago and ended up receiving all 265 questions. I don't know what to think. So far, I know three people in my class received 75 questions and passed, one received 175 and passed, then my friend received 235...and passed, but I just don't know. I feel like I failed. Just wondered if anyone had taken all of the questions and passed. I, like others, just started working/orientation. I will die of shame if I failed. Eeeeeek.
Thanks to all who post hear for sharing your honest feelings, words of encouragement, and for just plain being out there in the world and understanding.
good luck my prayers are with you !! i just finished my first day of kaplan.. it was interesting.. let us know how you do.. how does it work if you run out of time while taking NCLEX RN do you get the questions you didn't finish wrong?
pdaddy...I took mine today and had all 265 questions...not real sure what to make of it myself...and I felt the questions were tough, which doesn't help my confidence. At this point I just wish I knew. I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you...as well as for myself...hopefully we'll both be RN's soon...

Why thank you, and I will be wishing the best for you. I thought the questions were tough as well but from what the statistics show the average pass with just about 50% correct.
If you run aout of time they just compute where your standing is from where the clock ran out, you are not penalized for the questions you didn't get to.
I actually didn't run out of time...just took the max # of questions. I had a over an hour of my time remaining whenever I finished up...
When do you expect to know something? I'm from Ohio and have been checking the website since around 6 am. Not healthy to be sitting here doing that...but my fiance called and woke me up from Iraq...and of course right when we got off the phone, it's the first thing I thought about. Can't go back to sleep of course... :/
I saw where my BON updated this morning, but still no result for me. I didn't finish up til late afternoon...so hopefully they are still updating the site and just haven't got to mine yet. I can only hope...but discouraged I didn't see my status change this morning yet...
When should I expect it if I'm from Ohio...anybody know?

LOL, omg you sound exactly like me. I didn't finish my tesst untill just after 1pm so I figured they would be putting it in later in the day. The site DOES say that it's updated daily and a recent graduate I work with found her's posted around 6 o'clock the next day. But like you mine still reads pending.
I'm actually glad that I had to work a 12 today because I was only able to check it around 20 times as apposed to the hundreds if I were at home, lol
I imagine we should be finding out tomorrow, if you do please let me know. I'm from the Toledo area btw.
Wow yeah sounds like we had the same experience to me! Well I'm pleased to say I passed! I didn't feel very confident about it, but somehow...I made it. I hope you did as well. Two of my friends from class called me today and has 265 as well...one other had around 240. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed for them right now...let me know how you did though? Good luck!!!
I think I only checked the OBN website around 300 times today...so overall, not too bad haha...

Did you find out from checking the website or did you pay the 7 or so bucks to find out? What day did you take the test?
