I took the NCLEX-RN this morning and it stopped at 87 questions. I had 7 SATA, 2 exhibits, and 2 dosage calculations. I feel like 87 is such a weird number the the exam to end at. Have you or anyone you know passed the NCLEX-RN with a "strange" amount of questions? Results will be in Saturday morning at 8 am and I'll repost. Thanks!!!

yep.. me... at 104... i was thinking that was a really weird number.. but then I thought about the whole adaptive testing thing.. and it makes sense that we will get weird numbers.. and mine for a reason.. i didn't slow down and take my time so i probably got some wrong for dumb reasons and thats why i didnt shut off at 75 like everyone else i know

From what I have heard low numbers are better,Have alot better chance at passing than with 200+ good luck!!!

Not always the case - there's plenty of people who've passed over 200. Trust me, it's not as cut and dry as people claim it is! :D

Either way though, iceman, given the PVT has turned out well, may I recommend a small celebration?
