Keep you chin up. Just because you had 235 questions means nothing. Mine did not stop at 75 I took 90's...and my wife took 120. We both passed. I had several friends take above 200 and passed:) Keep yourself occupied and if you have the quick result option you should be able to find out in 48hrs by paying the fee.

It is just a number, many feel that they failed. Hang in there and good luck

i agree with the above posters. its just a number, how many questions you got does not necessarily determine the outcome of your exam. stay positive and be confident. i wish you well. :)

most of us felt like we failed when we left. i cried the rest of the day and night, called my family and told them i failed, that there was seriously no way that i passed. my world was over, next morning i found out that i passed. i don't really get how they score that thing cuz i would have failed me!!! hahah!!

I took it today too, and feel EXACTLY like you do. Mine stopped at 75, but I can't honestly say that I feel confident about more than 10 of the questions. All of my classmates who have taken it all felt like they failed, regardless of the number of questions they got......and all of them have passed. So, stay positive, think good thoughts, and somehow we'll get through the weekend waiting!!!

The worse you feel the better you did. You are going to get a license in the mail. Keep your head up.

Hi, I know exactly how you feel. I took my NCLEX on July 26th. As soon as I left the testing center, I called my husband and told him that I had just let myself down, my kids and family down, and my job down. I was positive that I had failed. I have no clue how many questions I had. I didn't even realize the questions were numbered. All I know is that I was their for 2 and 1/2 hours. I think what was the worst part for me was waiting for the results. I felt sick for 2 days. I do live in a state that has quick results. When I did get my results it said that I had passed. I screamed and cried. I could not believe it. So keep your head up everyone does feel like they failed. I am sure you did fine. BEST OF LUCK TO YA!!!
