:( Hi, I am basically trying to find out what the probabilities are of passing with 265 questions. I took my exam yesterday and I feel horrible I walked out of the test center feeling like my whole world came down on me, especially knowing that all my friends got under 180 and passed. I am sooooooo worred and down right now, I just pray to God that I passed this exam. I am sorry to post my emotions but I have no other way to vent, what should I do!!!!

I think it's different for everyone. I wish you all the luck though! I'm sure it's nerve racking!!

People pass with all different numbers of questions so there is really no way to tell. I do know that many people do pass with 265 so try to keep your head up... you have many people here who can sympathize with you and the anxiety you are feeling! :)

Hi Lisa, by any chance did you take your NCLEX in Schaumburg on Sunday afternoon? If you did I was there also and also got 265, but for the 2nd time taking it!!! I am so frustrated and do not know what to think. Let me know if you were there and how you do once you find out!!! Laura

Last time I knew I had not passed, just the gut feeling. This time I could not believe it was going all the way again. I tried to stay positive but it was hard. Once I got to the parking lot I felt like throwing up and I cried this time.. I don't know what to think, I am just trying to stay positive, but also am being ready for the disappointment. I am afraid to look tomorrow. Let me know how you did!!! I will be thinking about you.

There were many people in my class who took 265 questions... and they have passed! Keep your head up. I know the waiting can be frightening, just remember the length of the test doesn't determine if you have passed or failed. Speak positively.... easier said than done, I know!

I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers!:)

Yes, people do pass with the max. I don't know why the computer dangles carrots before some people, but you have equally as much of a shot of passing as those that did minimum. My best friend took NCLEX-RN last year and passed with the max...in fact, when she looked up, she was the last person sitting there. Good luck!
