Anyone Pass Nclex After The Computer Shut Off And You Had Not Completed The Test? Well This Just Happened To Me. I Was On Quest 245 And "boom" It Shut Off. This Was My 2nd Attempt, The 1st Time I Only Had 75 Quest So I Feel A Little Bit Better Knowing I Was Still In The Game (going Past 75). However, Overall I Feel Terrible. This Test Was Nothing Like The 1st Which I Guess Is A Good Sign Considering I Didn't Pass The 1st Time. But This Time I Felt Like I Completely Guessed On Almost Every Quest. I Really Need Some Advise, These Next Few Days Are Going To Be Sooooo Long And Dreadful.

The number of questions makes no difference and quite a few have passed that have timed out on the exam.
Best of luck to you.
Really? So i still have a chance? What if toward the end (my last 60 quest) i had more lower level than higher level? could i still pass? And i know one can't tell if the questions were higher level or lower level but i need some advise. I know the best thing to do is just wait it out. Thanks

All you can do is wait it out. I know these next few days will be torture but thats all you can do. It can go either way. Try to keep yourself busy. Good Luck and keep us posted.
suzanne, im sending you another message and what do you think the percentage is of passing if you ran out of time?? and i got mostly hard priority and no SATA,NO DOSAGE, just basic questions and priority and room assignments, but when i narrowed it down to two, i couldnt distiguish in between the two to determine which one i can send to another unit..

When someone runs out of time the computer will look at the last 60 questions and make a decision. It is very hard to predict and in all honesty stressing out about it will not change the results. Hang in there and good luck
