Most people pass with 75 questions. The great majority of people pass with all numbers of questions actually. Good luck!

I took the big test today. It shut off at 75 questions, not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing. has anyone failed with 75 questions? I'm so scared. I've been working as an IP for 3 weeks and I just bought a new car. I can't aford to not pass. Can anyone give any words of encouragement?

What type of questions did u get?? Some say if you get a lot of priority and select all that apply questions you could of passed

I got a lot of priority, only one select all that apply, what room would you put this patient, few drug quetions, teaching, and few L&D questions.Do you think it is possible to fail with 75 questions?

It's possible to fail with any number of questions, but no matter what number you stop at, the odds are still significantly in your favor.

Try to get out of the house, do something fun and unrelated to nursing. And whatever you do... absolutely no, I repeat, no looking up the answers to your test questions in your nursing texts. The way the test is set up, both passers and failers tend to get around 50% right, so just about everyone misses a bunch of questions. The difficulty level where you're scoring 50% is what determines pass/fail.
