Hi Everyone! HELP - I only recieved 75 questions on my nclex exam. I studied using 5 different nclex prep books to gain different perspectives and I was at the top of my class in school, but I am still so worried. I keep going over all the questions and have pulled out my books to try to check my answers. UUUGGGGHHHHH. How long did you normally have to wait to get the results . The quick results say 2 days but I have no fingernails left and am wondering if anyone got them sooner. Also if someone gets 75, do you think that means I passed or failed Thank you for taking the time to read this and answer me :monkeydance:

The number of questions is only the number of questions. The majority get 75 questions and pass. But the number of questions isn't an indication of whether you passed or failed. Maddening isn't it?

I also passed with 75. If you had a lot of teaching/priority questions I'm sure you passed. I had to wait just a few hours shy of 48 hours to find out through quick results.
Don't stress, ending at 75 means you did an awesome job!

You never know with number of questions. I passed with 75, a fellow student failed with 75.
You can call quick results at any time. They don't charge you if results are not in. They said 2 business days for me..but I had them sunday evening after testing friday evening.
ALso..some states post on the BON by 24 hours..so you can check your name there also.
Good luck!!!
Congrats to you Jaydensmom. :balloons::balloons::balloons: Hope I do as well. I had alot of priority and I also got 4-5 multiple choice so I am trying to convince myself I passed, but I can only think of like 10-14 that I am sure I got right. I am sure Jayden is VERY Happy for Mom!!!! blessings in your and Jaydens future.

I took my NCLEX a month ago and passed with 75 questions. I found out the very next morning, but it was tough to wait. I'm sure you've probably passed considering how much you've studied for it! In fact, all the friends that I heard had only 75 questions all passed. Good luck!

Hey Kimo,
I concur with the above statements........I too passed with 75 questions....and had lots of priority, 5/6 check all that apply, 2 med calculations and ton of meds I did not really know.....just took educated guesses. I think you passed too, the wait is the worse but soon you will have good results.....
