Hello everyone, so I took my NCLEX-RN exam yesterday and I got the full 265 questions!!! A LOT of Select all that apply questions, with the last question being a select all that apply question. I tried the Pearson Vue trick and I got the good response. How has the Pearson Vue trick work for everyone? Any feedback is appreciated. I feel like I failed.

I got the whole 265, got the good pop up and passed! PV will deny it, but I believe that they randomly throw out the 265 to designated computers. I had a classmate who took the test the day before I did, turns out he used the exact same computer I did and he got the 265 as well (and also passed).
I PASSED!!!

Congrats first and foremost!!
I was told by Kaplan and the administration at our school the way NCLEX works is, if you get a lot of one subject of type, it is because they need to validate your competency in that area (meaning your not doing good on NCLEX in that area initially).
Example. I start out with OB questions and nail them, chances are I wont see much of those, they know I'm good in that area. If I get psych questions (Schizo, bipolar) and I get those wrong initially, it will give more of those to validate your competency in that area than you got in comparison to OB. So you prob got a lot of SATA because that was a weak spot for you.
A few of my classmates have passed the NCLEX from my graduating class (I have yet to test) and the few that pssed with 90 or under questions said it was an even mix of all subjects and testing alternative for them.
A classmate who struggled (that has tested) throughout the last semester of school and on Kaplan review (mandatory with our college) had a different testing experience. He got a LOT of OB questions (and he admitted that was his very much weak spot - got the all questions on NCLEX and took him 5 hours). Said he had never seen so many OB questions before (figuratively).
Good Luck to everyone and again congrats.
