NCLEX-RN: 265 questions and PASSED!

Published

For those of you out there that have recently taken the NCLEX-RN and had to go the whole dreadful 265 questions-do not think you automatically failed! I took mine Friday morning at 8am..and just found out the results today Sunday at 8:52am and I PASSED!!!!! All of my friends were saying they stopped at 75 and under 100, so after I passed that number I was losing all hope and dignity..cried my eyes out all the way home and couldn't stop shaking! I would have bet my life on it that I failed..that's how sure I was..the test screws with your mind big time! I talked it over with a few people and they said if you have a lot of multiple-multiples it's a good sign because they are higher difficulty questions..so just because you had to take every question DO NOT automatically think you failed!

congratulations!!!

What does SATA mean, I took my NCLEX last week and found out I failed. I really wasn't ready to test this exam, but decided to push forward anyway. My dad died a week and a half before my exam, and had to fly out of town unexpectedly. I am not studying to take this exam again, but I was curious to know, what is Suzanna's plan?

Hi all,

Just joined the forum, but have been reading for awhile. I took my NCLEX this morning and had all 265 questions. I too cried at around 170 questions and am thinking that I failed. I took a break and the girl at the testing center asked me how it was going and I said "I wish the thing would just fail me already". This forum is so great and it gives me hope as I sit and wait for the next 48 hours.

Thanks. I've read that a lot of people have passed after having to do all 265, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I'll find out of Monday and I'll let you know.

I had 250 questions, took me 5 hours. I passed! Woo!! I was so worried, but it turned out great!! :) Lots of priority, I must have had 20 select all that apply, and around 10 math. Yikes!

That's great. Congratulations! I just called my quick results line and my scores aren't in yet. Said I have to wait another 24 hours. I was a nervous wreck yesterday. This waiting thing is the pits. Like you (GoGreen09) I had lots of priority, about 10 medications that I've never heard of, 4 math problems, and about 10 select all that apply.

Congratulations again!!

I took the NCLEX last month and passed after only 75 or so questions. I was in the testing booth for only 1hour and 15 min. I graduated from Nursing school 30 years ago, but was out of Nursing for 10 years!! If I can pass it it is possible for anyone to pass, if you prepare!!!! Just rake thousands of practice questions and know the basics.:nurse::yeah:
