Nclex

Published

I TOOK MY NCLEX 01/27/03 AND I HAVE NOT GOTTEN MY RESULTS YET. THE COMPUTER CUT OFF AT 75. EVERYONE I KNOW THAT HAD 75 QUESTIONS PASSED BUT I HAVE ALSO HEARD YOU CAN FAIL WITH 75. WHAT ARE THE ODDS OF SOMEONE FAILING WITH 75 QUESTIONS?

Don't sweat it. Only 3 people out of my class of 24 had more than 75 questions.

I'm sure you did fine.

Hi! I'm finishing my BSN in March and will be taking the Nclex. Can you give me any tips on the test, what the format is like, what you did to study, etc.? I have heard there's no way to tell if you passed or not whether it cuts off at 75 or not. Scary! Sorry to be no help on that. Best of luck in waiting for your results!

THE TEST IS NOT HARD YOU JUST HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS. I WENT TO A LADY BY THE NAME OF CAROLINE BUSTZA AND SHE IS EXCELLENT. IF YOU GO TO HER YOU WILL YET 75 QUESTIONS AND PASS THE FIRST TIME. SHE REALLY PREPARES YOU. YOU GO TO HER HOUSE AND SHE GIVE YOU PRACTICE TEST AND SOME OF THE PRACTICE QUESTIONS I ACTULLY GOT ON THE REAL TEST. SHE CHARGES 400.00 BUT IT IS WELL WORTH THE MONEY. I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE SHE LIVE IN BROADVIEW HEIGHTS OHIO. IF YOU WOULD LIKE MORE INFO LET ME KNOW.

IF YOU GET 75 QUESTIONS YOU PASS. THE ONLY WAY YOU FAIL AT 75 IS IF YOU GET TO MANY EASY QUESTIONS WRONG. IF YOU GET A QUESTION THAT PERTAINS TO SIADH OR DIABETES INSIPIDUS, YOU ARE DOING GOOD BECAUSE THAT IS CONSIDERED A DIFFICULT QUESTION TO THE BOARD.

I just wrote the NCLEX last Tuesday...and I passed! (just got my unofficial results on the net yesterday), I had 82 questions. They seemed to get progressively harder as I answered. But over all it wasn't all that difficult. Just be sure you know exactly wants being asked.

Best of Luck...you'll do fine!

:D

I am currently studying for Nclex and I was wondering if you could tell me how to get a hold of Caroline Bustza. It sounds like a great suggestion, I want to give it a try.

In case she lives outside of Cincinnati, do you know of anyone like that in Cincinnati? If not, I would like Caroline's contact information anyway.

Thank you!

Specializes in NICU/Neonatal transport.

Just as an off-topic note - it's considered rude 'netiquette' to type in all caps. It's hard to read and makes it seem like you are screaming.

Good luck on your NCLEX results.

I retract my previous post on September 4, 2009 at 09:31 pm. It was not my intention to slander Caroline Buszta or her company.
