i took my pn nclex couple of days ago. i stopped at 85, and took me under 90 minutes to finish it. i walked out of pearson thinking "85 is good number to stop at" , but now as the time goes by, i m getting more and more worried. i didn't find the exam challenging. i didnt think there was much critical thinking involved, i didnt get to use abcs or maslow's on any questions. i didnt get any med calculations, got 4-5 sata questions. got about 9 med questions. there was many infection control and priortization, and i got a variety of questions from many different topics. i felt as if i was getting easy, hard, hard and then again easy type of questions. and now i am starting to feel that i might've done really bad on the exam as i didnt get many satas or calculations. and the computer must've shut off before i even got to any hard questions. i have to wait 3-4 weeks for the results as i am in california but my anxiety level is getting out of control. has anybody felt this way about the exam? or am i just too stupid that the computer didnt even want to give me a chance? any suggestions ?? any advice to relieve this anxiety? thanx!!!!
congrats to all of you that have passed! We all have worked hard to get to this point. I just took the nclex -pn today and my computer shut off at 85 . I had some infection control,lots of pharmo(that I didnt know)lots of priorty, no med calculations, maybe 1 or 2 psych,and 6 sata.It was kind of hard but I do have to admit that I didn't study too much .I just reviewed over some areas I thought i was weak .I am so scared!! I'm so sure I failed .Nees some encouragement!And the great news is I am here in California :)Keep me in your prayers!!!
hi, i just took my pn exam today and the computer shut off around 111 questions.it was really hard, the questions came from nowhere. i had no calculations, a little meds,6 SATA and most of all prioritizing.what d u mean by this?
when i left the testing center, i was so confused and got head ache. d zipper of my boots were off nd didnt remember to zip it up.i cried a little. i didnt even remember those questions i encountered. huhuhu wish me luck. hoping for the best.
I sat for the NCLEX-PN last week and I got 85 questions. That only included 2 SATA questions, quite a few meds that I was not familiar with, tons of prioritizing, and no calculations at all. I passed and you will to. Have faith and hang in there. I do not think that the types of questions are indicators of passing or failing. I did the same thing you did. I felt as though I did ok when I left the test site. However, once I got home the anxiety took over. I was checking my book for correct answers and trying to determine if I got more questions right than wrong. That only added to my anxiety. Do something to take your mind off of things. Good Luck! You can do it!

congratulations! im still waiting for my result. i hope so.
I know the anxiety in waiting is the worst. It seems like eternity. I was able to pay to see online if I passed or failed after only 3 days, and it only took about 2 weeks to get the results in the mail in NY. I could not imagine waiting 3-4 weeks.
