:bluecry1: Hi everyone!!!!! I have visited the site frequently but never posted. I took the NCLEX in Tennessee today. I did tons of questions and felt well prepared, but nothing could have prepared me for that test!! I had 125 questions and think I answered the last question correctly, but not positive. My friend took it also today and got 75 (I am sure she passed). I need reassurance. Everyone in my whole class has passed, I don't want to be the first one to fail. Has anyone else gotten 125 and passed/failed? Also, is there any way to get quicker results in Tn? Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took the NCLEX on Monday and found out yesterday that I passed. Let me just say that when my computer shut off on Monday I too was sure that I had failed. I was so anxious the next two days waiting for my results. My point here is that your reaction is perfectly natural. Chances are that you answered more right than you are remembering at the moment. Someone posted in another thread that we only tend to remember the questions that we didn't know as opposed to the ones that we did know. For now just relax as best you can. Do something to take your mind off of things.

As for your results... I'm looking at my NCLEX info stuff and unfortunately Tennessee doesn't participate in "Quick-Results". My advice is to keep checking the Tennessee Board of Nursing Website to see if a license has been posted in your name. Hang in there... I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. :icon_hug:

Relax. nobody takes the NCLEX and feels good about it. I failed on my first attempt and you know what? I am a better nurse because of it. I took an online refresher and learned a lot more about nursing. Best of all I actually understood alot about nursing. I took 265 questions the first time.

Everyone I talked to said they failed, and the overwhelming vast majority passed.

Do not stress over whether or not you answered the last question right or wrong. I bet you did just fine.

I felt exactly the same way and I passed with 75 questions. I was sure I failed. I had to wait over two weeks to get my results, since CA doesnt have quick results either. Im sure you did fine and will be celebrating your RN-ship in a few days. Take some time for yourself and put away anything to do with school or NCLEX. I packed it all up in a container and put it in the garage so I wouldnt have a visual reminder of my test every second. It really helped me focus on having a life now that school is over.

I'll be around if you need anything at all.

Lisa, RN
