NCLEX - Pass with minimal SATA?

Published

I just finished taking my NCLEX exam a few hours ago. I had about 116 questions before my exam shut off. I had about 8 SATA, 2 exhibition, 0 ordered responses, and 0 audio questions. Is this a bad sign?

SATA questions (or any alternate format, really) are not necessarily above passing standard just because they are SATA. There are SATA questions at all ability levels. The number of SATA questions you get doesn't indicate how well you're doing or likelihood of passing... that's a myth. Good luck!!

I got maybe 10 SATA at the max and passed with 75 questions. I also didn't get any audio or ordered responses. Good luck! Just because you didn't get a lot of SATA doesn't mean you failed.
