I finish last Mo the 9th. Had a good feeling while answering the questions I was calm and very alert. I was told that if your get questions such as "implementation and critical thinking" you are on the right track. I finish around 80 questions...but my good feeling just waned with every hour after the test. What if I am wrong and everyone gets these questions. My name is not on the on-line list yet after four days. Some of my class mates got theirs within 2 days. I wonder if students who purchased the temporary permit get taken care first... how many students don't get their RN right away? whatever I'll just wait for the letter....I'm not thinking about it anymore

Congratulations on taking the test. I wouldn't worry about anything at this point. Relax in the knowledge you did your best and best wishes for positive results.

The odds are that with it shutting off so early, you either did very good or incredibly bad. What kind of a student were you in your nursing program? If you were a good student, you probably know you stuff to be a safe new nurse and passed. If you barely squeeked by and had to repeat classes, then maybe you'll need to study some more. I was a pretty good student during my 2 year program, the test shut off after about 93. There were a lot of questions that I was making an educated guess at, so I never had the feeling that I did good or so overwhelmed by the questions that I blew it. I passed and only had to wait three days later to see my name on the state licensing website.
