Nclex pn exam stopped at 85 questions!

Updated:   Published

Hello everyone. So i just had my nclex pn today and the computer shut off at 85! I am really nervous on what the result will be! I had SATA questions and prioritizing questions too. Does the PVT works? I am from California so quick result is not available, i have to wait for weeks for the letter.

If it stopped at 85 questions then chances are very good you've passed. %99.9 positive.

Hello Crisbien04! I still don't know if I passed. It's either i did good or not stopping at 85. Still hoping for a positive result. Good luck on your test. Just be confident, you have reviewed and answer what you think is best, follow your gut.

think of it this way, you got only the minimum number of questions, which means you either nailed it or you bombed it. What kind of a student were you in school? if you give yourself an honest assessment of that, the amount of time you studied for the NCLEX, which is more likely, that you nailed it or you bombed it? Everyone feels that they failed the test, lol but obviously with something like 85% passing on the first try that isn't the case! Good luck ?

My test cut off at 85 questions and I left the testing center in tears and after talking to my family I realized that I needed to chill. 85 questions mean you really knew alot or nothing and I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you knew something and you passed!!!! Good luck and keep the faith!!!! #dreamtheimpossible
