Please help! Just took NCLEX and don't really know how I feel about it?!!

I had more than 75 questions - honestly I can't recall how many (I stopped looking after 75). I think it was somewhere around 150. My last question seemed easy and I believe I got it right. I am just so sick to my stomach right now! I guess if I really sucked - it would have cut me off long before that - huh?

If it makes you feel better, I had 75 this morning and I don't feel sure about it either. I mean, statistics are on our side. But I didn't feel confident with many of my answers. It's just the way it is. Easy to say, but relax. Or distract yourself.

What do you mean the odds are in our favor?

Nothing to do now but enjoy the day and wait it out. Don't torture yourself any longer, it's over, you did your best. Good luck!

Most people with 75 questions pass the boards.

Of course, the number of questions is not an indication of pass/fail. People fail with 75 questions. But more people than not pass at 75. I don't think the op read your post that you had MORE than 75 questions.

No - I actually mean if I was really doing poorly in the first 75 - it probably wouldn't have continues on.

The odds are in your favor, anyway....a little more than 81% of all first-time test takers will pass :)

This is true. :)

The odds are in your favor b/c 85% of first-time test takers pass. I love that big 8-5.
