NCLEX Shut off at 76 HELP!!!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I just took the NCLEX today and i seemed to be doing good. I narrowed all questions except two down to two answers. I got to 76 and answered the question wrong ( I later discovered when reading over my notes) and it shut off!! I'm not feeling too good about it now. I read about everyones shutting off at 75 but not many shutting off at 76. Has this happened to anyone else? Is this a really bad sign?

congrats on taking the nclex. i took mine tuesday and it stopped at 75.

the only thing we can do now is wait. i don't know if your state offers quick results, hopefully you only will have to wait a day or so.

there is no real way of telling if you passed or not by the number of questions. let's keep thinking positive. i know its hard not to rehash every question and second guess yourself. just know you did the best you could possibly do.

let us know how it goes.

I feel for you I took my test last friday it shut off at 75 and I have been worried ever since, my state does not do quick results so I just have to wait. Reading the postings on this web site made me realize Im not going through this alone and Im not the only one feeling like this.

I had a lot of which pt, would you assess first, some labs and a few drug questions. I was brain dead when I left could not remember too much, It was way different from the Lvn I took in 2005. Not too many answers jumped out at you I had to think through all the responses. I hope I did enough to pass I say a little prayer every morning. good luck to you
